  • Should all serious crimes be tried by a jury? With Geoffrey Robertson KC

    Should all serious crimes be tried by a jury? With Geoffrey Robertson KC
    2026/04/29

    The government is considering dropping juries for certain criminal cases in an attempt to reduce court backlogs. Will this move undermine British justice?


    In this bumper episode, host Tamara Kormornick speaks to a vocal opponent to the plans, Geoffrey Robertson KC, former judge and founder of Doughty Street Chambers, where Keir Starmer, David Lammy and Attorney General Richard Herman have all practised. She also hears from criminal barrister and Vice Chair of the Criminal Bar Association, Andrew Thomas KC, who both prosecutes and defends for the Crown, for his view on whether the British justice system needs as many juries.

    Will Starmer’s constituency lose to the Greens in next week’s council elections? With LSE professor Tony Travers
    2026/04/28

    Londoners will head to the polls next week to choose their local councillors. Since 2021, Labour has held the majority across the capital, but new polling suggests that even Sir Keir Starmer’s local borough of Camden may fall to the Greens.


    In this episode, host Tamara Kormornick speaks to Tony Travers, a professor in the Department of Government at the London School of Economics about the results of the latest London council election poll by JL Partners for LSE. They discuss possible outcomes for the upcoming elections, including which parties might join forces, and the messages Londoners may send to Westminster through the ballot box.

    What you need to know about the Renters' Rights Act
    2026/04/27

    This week, many Londoners will gain new powers as the Renters' Rights Act comes into force. So what do tenants and landlords need to know?


    In this episode, host Tamara Kormornick speaks to The Standard’s Homes & Property editor, Prudence Ivey, about the upcoming changes to rental agreements. The two discuss what renters should look out for in the small print, whether the new bill might inadvertently cause a housing shortage, as well as consider if the bill is enough to convince Londoners to vote for Labour in the upcoming council elections.
