In this interview, Jigyasa Singh speaks with Dr Graham Barnfield, a British commentator, lecturer, and Chair of Trustees at the educational charity WORLDwrite, about the vital role of jury trials in the UK.
Dr Barnfield, who has extensive experience teaching and researching criminal justice, explains why juries matter in a democracy, how historical cases like the 1670 Quaker trial shaped legal protections, and what could be at stake if jury trials are limited.
We also explore international perspectives, comparing UK jury trials with systems in Japan, Germany, France, and the United States, and discuss potential “middle ground” models where citizens and judges both play a role.
This interview is part of Jigyasa Singh’s NCTJ International portfolio project, examining how criminal justice systems balance efficiency, fairness, and democracy.
