The UK Government has announced plans to restrict the right to a jury trial in England and Wales to solve a backlog of 80,000 cases.

Serious crimes like murder and rape will continue to be sent to jury trial, but minor crimes like shoplifting will be dealt with directly by a judge or magistrate.

UK Correspondent Edna Brady has seen the need for reform first hand.

"I've spent three decades going to court cases all over the UK and it never has ceased to stagger me. The inefficiency, the delays, just how slow everything is," she told Heather du Plessis-Allan.
