What the petition asks
We the British public, do not consent to the scrapping of jury trials. A trial by a jury of your peers is the foundation of a just judicial system and we must uphold this tradition.
The foundation of any democratic judicial system is the right to a trial by a jury of your peers, parliament needs to carefully scrutinise the proposals by government to end this right.
