Today, David Lammy has confirmed plans to get rid of jury trials for crimes with sentences of less than three years.The reforms to the justice system include creating "swift courts" under the government's plan to tackle unprecedented delays in the court system. Serious offences including murder, robbery and rape will still go before a jury. Lammy has said the reforms were “bold” but “necessary”. Adam is joined by home and legal correspondent Dominic Casciani.And, amidst all the noise around last week's budget you may have missed the Prime Ministers suggestion that he will accept all the recomendations made in a report that criticised the UK's nuclear power industry as expensive and “overly complex”. The man who wrote it, John Fingleton tells Adam about what he found and what he thinks it tells us about the UK's approach to regulation. You can now listen to Newscast on a smart speaker.

Criminal cases in England and Wales where a prison sentence is likely to be less than three years will be heard by a judge, not a jury, under plans from justice secretary David Lammy. Would it help reduce the backlog in courts? Or could it be purely to save money? Alexandra Topping joins Lucy Hough. Help support our independent journalism at theguardian.com/infocus
Today we're going to be talking about David Lammy, and his brand new plans to drastically reduce the number of jury trials in the UK in an attempt to address the backlog. With the backlog of cases due to be heard in courts already at 78,000, and heading for 100,000, the Justice Secretary believes that only radical solutions can tackle the ‘courts emergency'. But is he being too radical? This comes on the same day that Lammy announced that 12 prisoners have been accidentally released in the last three weeks.But first, the Budget fallout continues and there has been a resignation but – crucially – it's not the Chancellor. After the OBR leaked the Budget early, its chairman Richard Hughes has taken the fall and resigned last night.

David Lammy has announced serious crimes likely to lead to a prison sentence of less than three years will now be decided by a judge alone. Also: A report into the Hillsborough disaster says twelve police officers would have faced gross misconduct proceedings if they hadn't retired. And the Girlguiding organisation says trans girls and young women will no longer be allowed to join as new members.
David Lammy is expected to announce reforms that would see jury trials ended for sentences of three years or less. Plus: Rachel Reeves is under pressure over budget “lies”, and we discuss Zack Polanski's economic influences. With Aaron Bastani and Kieran Andrieu.
David Lammy has set out radical plans to limit jury trials to only the most serious of crimes.The deputy prime minister argues the move will help tackle a backlog of court cases which has “pushed the justice system to the brink of collapse”.The plans have been heavily criticised, not least by the opposition. But if restricting the right to a jury trial isn't the answer, then what is?Niall is joined by Dr Rebecca Helm, professor of law and empirical legal studies at the University of Exeter, and Sky News correspondent Dan Whitehead.Producers: Emily Hulme and Tom GillespieEditor: Mike Bovill
Shadow Justice Secretary Robert Jenrick blasts Labour's chaos: prisoners accidentally freed and still on the run, a “part-time” David Lammy jetting off, plans to scrap jury trials, and Rachel Reeves accused of tanking the economy with £16bn of broken promises. Jenrick asks the question on everyone's lips: why are Lammy and Reeves still in their jobs? Fiery from Julia Hartley-Brewer. Short, sharp, and unfiltered. Hosted on Acast.

And they'd really like to know why David Lammy would like to take our juries away from certain cases after once tweeting that the jury was the one of the pillars of our judicial system. Plus, which countries did Covid well? Why did the former BBC DG go around Sarah's house once to ask about the future of the corporation and then totally ignore her advice?

The Justice Secretary, David Lammy, is proposing to restrict the ancient right to trial by jury in courts in England and Wales to the most serious cases, such as rape and murder. Also: the Chancellor, Rachel Reeves, has announced the minimum wage is to go up next year. And scientists find there are five ages of the human brain, including a surprisingly long adolescence.
What is the real purpose of Prime Minister's Questions? As an ‘infuriated' listener asks why the Speaker can't force politicians to answer, George Osborne breaks down why PMQs is ‘political theatre' and what most people misunderstand about it, while Ed Balls explains why David Lammy's recent performance revealed the real procedural power the Speaker holds.Then, prompted by a question from Shadow Cabinet minister Victoria Atkins, the pair break down when cross-party support actually works, and when it's just a ‘bear trap' for the opposition.And, reporting from the COP summit in Brazil, the hosts of the Outrage & Optimism podcast ask why the UK failed to put money into the 'Tropical Forests Forever' facility, leading Ed and George to discuss the 'crumbled' political consensus on foreign aid.Finally, the pair delve into the reality of rejoining the EU. Could the UK get the same deal as before? And what's the real obstacle to rejoining - could it be the Euro, the non-negotiable issue of free movement, or something else altogether?Thanks for listening.

Die Verenigde Koninkryk se minister van Justisie, David Lammy, het bevestig drie gevangenes wat verkeerdelik uit tronke in Engeland en Wallis vrygelaat is, is steeds op vrye voet. Twee van die drie bevestigde gevalle is verlede jaar in Augustus en Desember vrygelaat en ʼn derde in Junie vanjaar. Volgens die ministerie van Justisie se syfers is altesaam 91 gevangenes tussen April en einde Oktober vanjaar per abuis vrygelaat. Lammy sê die vrylatingsproses moet drasties hersien word:
The Justice Secretary, David Lammy, has revealed that 91 prisoners have been released by mistake over the last seven months. Also: Epping Council loses a High Court case to block The Bell Hotel from housing asylum seekers. And another name change for Andrew as Mountbatten-Windsor belatedly gets a hyphen.
A year ago, the Chancellor called her £38 billion tax rise a ‘one-and-done' move. Now she looks set to rinse and repeat, with reports that a 2p increase in income tax is on the table. According to The Times, she has informed the Office for Budget Responsibility that a rise in personal taxation is one of the ‘major measures' she will announce. This is the strongest signal yet that she will break Labour's manifesto pledge not to increase income tax rates. What does this mean for the Chancellor, and taxpayers?Elsewhere, David Lammy suffered a disastrous Deputy Prime Minister's Questions after dodging questions on whether there had been another prisoner let out by mistake. To discuss all the different headaches Labour is facing, Michael Simmons is joined by Tim Shipman and James Heale. Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

#UKPolitics #JonGaunt #LiveShow #UKNews #KeirStarmer #BBCBias #DavidLammy #AstonVilla #IslamistThugs #MigrantCrisis What a SH!T Week for the UK – We All Need to Get a Grip: Jon Gaunt on illegal migrant sex offenders on the run, income tax rises on the way and a Chancellor who looks out of her depth. The BBC once again showing its bias, David Lammy accused of lying in the Commons and not wearing a poppy, Islamist thugs driving Jewish fans out of the beautiful game at Aston Villa, and Prime Minister Keir Starmer hugging trees in Brazil while there's anarchy at home. Plus another thousand illegal migrants have arrived in last 24 hours! "Things can only get better"… my arse.
Who is to blame for two more inmates being wrongly freed from prison? The Conservatives attempted a mic drop moment with David Lammy this week by trying to get the Justice Secretary to admit to it live in the House of Commons. So why did Lammy avoid the question five times? And when 262 prisoners were released by mistake in the year to March – how is this happening every week? At the very least, Harriet sees the saga as an opportunity for the government to sort out the prison service. Plus Beth, Ruth and Harriet are joined by pollster Luke Tryl, and a group of voters who tell us why they're not convinced by the Prime Minister so far. So how tricky is this budget going to be for Rachel Reeves when most people's top worry is the cost of living? Can she actually put up taxes? And will more people just end up supporting Nigel Farage and Zack Polanski? Remember, you can also watch Beth Rigby, Harriet Harman and Ruth Davidson on YouTube.
The Justice Secretary, David Lammy, has insisted that prison systems are being modernised to try to deal with what he called an unacceptable spike in mistaken releases. Also: Democrat members of a US Congress committee have written to Andrew Mountbatten Windsor asking to interview him in connection with his "long-standing friendship" with the convicted sex offender, Jeffrey Epstein. And world leaders gather in Brazil for the annual UN climate summit COP30.
John Harris speaks to the Guardian's economics editor, Heather Stewart, about the unenviable choice facing Rachel Reeves. What price will she pay if she raises the basic rate of income tax for the first time in half a century? Meanwhile, has language and policy that would once have been confined to the far-right fringe entered mainstream politics? Sunder Katwala, the director of the thinktank British Future, joins John to discuss whether racist rhetoric can be pushed back to the margins Send your thoughts and questions to politicsweeklyuk@theguardian.com.

A lot to digest this week after Rachel Reeves dumped on everyone's cornflakes on Tuesday then David Lammy almost made us throw up our lunch the following day.

#Starmer #SadiqKhan #COP30 #UKPolitics #London #JonGaunt #Leadership #Rio #trainattack As Britain faces shocking levels of violence and fear, Keir Starmer and Sadiq Khan have chosen to fly to Rio de Janeiro for COP30 — leaving behind a country that's on edge. After the horrific train rampage that's left people terrified to travel, and another senseless murder of a man simply walking his dog, millions across the UK are asking: where is the leadership? Families are scared to walk the streets. Commuters don't feel safe getting on trains. London feels broken — crime spiralling, police overstretched, public trust collapsing. Yet instead of facing the nation, Starmer has left it to the Home Secretary and David Lammy to front the response. That's not leadership — that's avoidance. In times of crisis, a Prime Minister should lead from the front, speak directly to the public, and stand with those who are suffering. Tonight Jon Gaunt is asking:
The Deputy PM believes that Labour can beat the threat of the populist right, Nigel Farage and Reform. Lammy says that Labour can achieve this by tackling the cost of living crisis, uniting the centre and left of British politics and putting security first.Oli Dugmore sat down with David Lammy to discuss his plan.Read: Nigel Farage can be stoppedLISTEN AD-FREE:

Jon Gaunt says it's about time these myopic politicians faced the truth: their weakness and political correctness have opened the door to terror and fear. Starmer, Lammy, and Mahmood have been sleepwalking into the terrorism outrages we've witnessed this week.

#NigelFarage #KeirStarmer #LabourConference #UKPolitics #ReformUK #JonGaunt #ShabanaMahmood #LIVE #Starmerout The Labour Conference is turning into the Farage Show! Keir Starmer can't stop talking about Nigel Farage — branding him “racist” and “grubby” over his call to reform right-to-remain rules. Now Rachel Reeves and David Lammy have joined in the attacks. But the reality? Farage is living rent-free in Labour's head. Latest polls show if there were an election today, Nigel Farage would be heading for Number 10. Meanwhile, Starmer risks alienating millions of voters by smearing everyone concerned about mass immigration as “racist.” To make things even messier, the Home Secretary, Shabana Mahmood, is now proposing immigration rules almost identical to Farage's. So… is she a “racist” too? Join Jon Gaunt as he breaks down the chaos, the polls, and why Farage has become the unexpected star of Labour's big event. #NigelFarage #KeirStarmer #LabourConference #UKPolitics #ReformUK #JonGaunt #ShabanaMahmood #LIVE #Starmerout #ImmigrationDebate #SmallBoatsCrisis #RachelReeves #DavidLammy #HomeSecretary #MassImmigration #LabourParty #ConservativeParty #BritishPoliticsLive #FaragevsStarmer #FarageSpeech #LabourConference #UKPolls #UKImmigrationCrisis #JonGaunt #ShabanaMahmood #LIVE Nigel Farage, Keir Starmer, Labour Conference, Starmer Out, UK Politics, Reform UK, Jon Gaunt, Shabana Mahmood, Live, Immigration Debate, Small Boats Crisis, Rachel Reeves, David Lammy, Home Secretary, Mass Immigration, Labour Party, Conservative Party, British Politics Live, Farage vs Starmer, Farage Speech, Labour Conference, UK Polls, UK Immigration Crisis, Jon Gaunt, Shabana Mahmood, LIVE This video is a politics blog and social commentary by award winning talk radio star, Jon Gaunt
This week we are on the ground in New York to cover the 80th United Nations General Assembly and Climate Week. Our discussion breaks down President Donald Trump's address at the summit, where he called climate change a hoax, denounced Europe's energy policies, and focused on the urgent need to address uncontrolled migration. The global drive for emissions reduction is moving forward despite the Trump administration's stance on climate action, with high emitters, including China, submitting their Nationally Determined Contributions, or their climate action plans to keep global warming below 1.5 degrees Celsius. To dig into these stories and catch up on what's happening at UNGA80, senior editor Rumbi Chakamba sits down with senior global reporter Colum Lynch and global development reporter Jesse Chase-Lubitz for the latest episode of our weekly podcast series. Note on episode: David Lammy's current title is deputy prime minister, not prime minister as mentioned in the episode.

//The Wire//2300Z September 5, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: VENEZUELAN AIRCRAFT CONDUCT FLIGHT OVER US NAVY SHIPS, PROMPTING US RESPONSE. BRITISH CABINET SHUFFLES PERSONNEL FOLLOWING RESIGNATION OF DEPUTY PRIME MINISTER DUE TO TAX EVASION SCANDAL. USA/INDIA RELATIONS DETERIORATE AFTER CHINESE DEFENSE SUMMIT.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Germany: Concern is growing regarding the sudden deaths of several politicians/candidates from the Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party. Local party officials have reported that 7x candidates have died unexpectedly, two weeks before the next round of elections on September 14th. Analyst Comment: German authorities have stated that two of the deaths were from natural causes, however the others have not been explained. Independent verification is not possible at this time as government and party officials are withholding the names of the deceased for reasons of family privacy.United Kingdom: Several high-level positional changes have taken place throughout the British government following the departure of Deputy PM Angela Rayner. This morning Yvette Cooper announced her resignation from the Home Office, with Shabana Mahmood taking her place as Home Secretary. Cooper will become the Foreign Secretary, and David Lammy (the former Foreign Secretary) is to become Deputy Prime Minister.Analyst Comment: This reshuffling is largely due to several scandals that have plagued Starmer's government for several months. From the migrant crisis to internal corruption scandals, the last straw was the discovery that Angela Rayner had not paid property taxes on one of her residences, which totaled roughly £40,000 worth of tax evasion. This rapidly snowballed into a big scandal, especially since she has previously called out the tax-loopholes utilized by other politicians in the past.Caribbean: Yesterday, 2x Venezuelan F-16's conducted an overflight of the US Navy Task Force currently conducting operations in the southern Caribbean Sea. In response to this action, this morning the Pentagon announced the deployment of 10x F-35 fighter aircraft to Fort Buchanan in Puerto Rico. This forward deployment will be conducted to allegedly engage in kinetic targeting of narcotics trafficking platforms, and also to provide more air-to-air targeting capabilities in the region.Analyst Comment: As expected, the situation has escalated. The deployment of F-35s usually points to one possibility...an expansion of the conflict. More specifically, F-35's would not be needed to target simple narco-vessels but would be a satisfactory platform for engaging more substantial threats, such as the F-16's the US sold to the Venezuelan military back in the 1980's.-HomeFront-Washington D.C. - Relations between the US and India have deteriorated somewhat over the past few days, following the trade negotiations that have been ongoing for some time. Earlier this week, China hosted the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit, which coincided with a visit by President Vladimir Putin, and Prime Minister Modi. This summit resulted in India re-affirming their desire to strengthen ties with their fellow BRICS partners, instead of growing ties with the United States. This in turn has lead to a worsening of relations with the United States, and the White House taking a more hardball approach to trade negotiations with India. After the display of friendship between India and China, President Trump has floated the idea of blocking American tech companies from outsourcing work to India.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: There is another angle to the deteriorating US/India relations that is worthy of note. Brief scandal erupted on social media yesterday as multiple influential accounts were discovered to be posting suspiciously pro-India content, in response to the White House making statements that

There's been fierce international criticism of Israeli plans to build more than three-thousand homes in a controversial settlement in the occupied West Bank. The country's far-right finance minister, Bezalel Smotrich, said the move - which will split the territory - will "bury the idea of a Palestinian state". Britain's foreign secretary, David Lammy, described the plan as a "flagrant breach of international law" that "must be stopped". Also in the programme: Humanitarian workers in Sudan say they lack the resources to deal with a deadly cholera outbreak in camps for people displaced by the civil war; what sort of welcome are Alaskans preparing for President Putin; and why are some female Australian birds developing male sex organs. (Photo: Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich speaks at a press conference regarding settlements expansion for the long-frozen E1 settlement, that would split East Jerusalem from the occupied West Bank, near the Israeli settlement of Maale Adumim in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, August 14, 2025.
