In 2020 they increased amount of time a magistrate could sentence someone to from 6 months to 1 year, but the accused could still freely choose to have a jury trial.

minus-squareWomble@piefed.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-2منذ 14 ساعةThat was the (abandoned) legislation from Labour, the previous act under the Tories raised the limit on sentences by magistrates from 6 to 12 months for a year trial and then let it drop back down to 6 months. Then in 2024 it was raised permanently to 12 months by statute as the 2020 law allowed. None of that had any impact on trial by jury.
