Britain’s justice system is facing a profound rupture. Under the banner of efficiency and backlog reduction, reforms are being proposed that would remove large numbers of cases from jury trial, weaken appeal rights, and concentrate decision making power in the hands of the state. These changes touch principles that have defined British liberty for centuries and raise fundamental questions about our justice and democracy, and who they ultimately serve. In this conversation, Jonathan Sacerdoti speaks to veteran criminal defence barrister Jeremy Dein KC, whose decades at the heart of the courts give him a rare vantage point. Dein explains why dismantling jury trials will not solve the crisis it claims to address, why judges themselves are alarmed, and how political pressure, public disorder and selective enforcement are corroding trust in the rule of law. From constitutional change to the reality of two tier justice, this discussion exposes how institutional drift becomes moral failure when the state forgets its duty to protect the individual. 👁‍🗨 Watch if you want to understand how the erosion of jury trials, policing failures and selective enforcement are symptoms of a deeper crisis in British justice. 💬 We Discuss: ⚖️ Why jury trials are not a procedural detail but a constitutional safeguard against injustice 🏛️ How proposals to reduce jury trials undermine principles dating back to Magna Carta 📉 Why abolishing juries will not solve the court backlog and may worsen it 👩‍⚖️ Why concentrating power creates new risks 📜 The quiet removal of appeal rights and what it means for ordinary defendants 🚨 Fast tracked justice and why speed can become a substitute for fairness 🔍 Two tier justice and how public order policing reveals institutional fear and inconsistency 🕍 The failure to protect Jewish communities from intimidation masquerading as protest 🗣️ Free speech versus criminal intimidation and where the law has lost clarity 🇬🇧 What all of this says about Britain’s future as a liberal democracy 🔔 Subscribe for more serious and unflinching conversations about law, power and the future of British institutions. 📲 Follow Jonathan On X: https://x.com/jonsac On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jonathansacerdoti/ On Substack: https://jonsac.substack.com 👇 Comment below — if jury trials and equal justice are weakened in the name of efficiency, what protections remain for the individual against the state? #JeremyDein #JonathanSacerdoti #BritishJustice #JuryTrials #RuleOfLaw #FreeSpeech #Antisemitism #UKPolitics #CivilLiberties

Donald Trump’s lawyer went on the record and said it plainly: Britain’s Jews need protection. They need somewhere to flee. He's urging the US President to let them come to America. When The Telegraph put the proposal on its front page, it was no longer a hypothetical concern whispered in private, but a public warning, issued at national level, about the condition of Britain itself. In this frank and unsettling conversation, Jonathan Sacerdoti speaks with Robert Garson, the Manchester-born barrister and US attorney who is close to Donald Trump, about why he believes the idea of asylum for British Jews is no longer extreme, but overdue. Garson explains how a lifetime of loyalty to Britain collided with the reality of a country that increasingly refuses to enforce its own laws when Jews are threatened. 👁‍🗨 Watch if you want to understand how the US could provide refuge for British Jews, and what that idea reveals about Britain now. 💬 We Discuss: 🇬🇧 How Britain reached a point where asylum is openly discussed 📰 Why The Telegraph front page mattered 🚨 From fringe antisemitism to mass intimidation 👮 Policing, fear, and the refusal to enforce the law 🇺🇸 Why the US responded differently after October 7 🛡️ Jewish self defence and the limits of state protection 🎓 Universities, emigration, and collapsing confidence 🏛️ Institutional weakness inside British Jewish leadership ✈️ Asylum, visas, and the search for alternatives ⚠️ What Britain risks losing if its Jews decide to leave 📲 Follow Jonathan On X: https://x.com/jonsac On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jonathansacerdoti/ On Substack: https://jonsac.substack.com 👇 Comment below — was this proposal a necessary warning, a step too far, or a devastating indictment of modern Britain? #BritishJews #Asylum #Antisemitism #UnitedKingdom #UnitedStates #DonaldTrump #Trump #JonathanSacerdoti #RobertGarson #October7

For nearly half a century the Islamic Republic has ruled Iran through fear, censorship and organised cruelty. It has crushed dissent at home while exporting terrorism abroad, and it has relied on a simple calculation: that the world would look away while its own people suffered in silence. Today that calculation is collapsing. Across Iran, ordinary men and women are rising against a regime that has impoverished them, humiliated them and treated their lives as disposable. They are marching in the streets knowing they may never return home. And for the first time in decades, they feel that the outside world might finally be listening. In this powerful and deeply personal conversation, Jonathan Sacerdoti is joined by Iranian activist Niyak Ghorbani, one of the most visible organisers of protests in the United Kingdom and a relentless opponent of both the Islamic Republic and the antisemitic movements it sponsors. Drawing on his own experience of life under the regime, and on the stories of family and friends still trapped inside Iran, he describes what this moment feels like from the inside. 👁‍🗨 Watch if you want to understand why the battle for Iran’s future matters far beyond its borders, and why this uprising feels different from all those that came before. 💬 We Discuss: 🇮🇷 What daily life under the Islamic Republic is really like for ordinary Iranians 🔥 Why this wave of protests feels closer to regime change than ever before 🇺🇸 How Donald Trump’s words transformed Iranian morale 📺 The failure of mainstream media to report the uprising honestly 👮‍♂️ Niyak’s own arrests in Britain for opposing antisemitic marches 🕊️ The bravery of protesters who know they may be killed for demonstrating 👑 Why many Iranians now rally behind Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi 🌍 How Iran’s struggle mirrors the rise of Islamist influence in the West 📱 Social media, citizen journalism and the fight to break regime censorship ⚠️ The lessons Britain should learn from Iran before it is too late 🔔 Subscribe for more fearless conversations about world affairs, freedom and the fight for truth. 📲 Follow Jonathan On X: https://x.com/jonsac On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jonathansacerdoti/ On Substack: https://jonsac.substack.com 👇 Comment below — will the world finally stand with the Iranian people, or abandon them again? #IranProtests #IslamicRepublic #JonathanSacerdoti #Iran #MiddleEast #Freedom #HumanRights #DonaldTrump #Antisemitism #IRGC #Britain

Europe’s relationship with Israel has never been simple. It is shaped by history soaked in blood, by moral claims born from catastrophe, and by institutions that insist on speaking in the language of values while acting through interest. In the aftermath of October 7, those tensions have hardened, exposing fractures between governments and peoples, ideology and reality, rhetoric and reliance. As Europe’s political centre shifts and its demographics change, Israel finds itself simultaneously condemned in public and depended upon in practice. Accusations of antisemitism collide with strategic cooperation. Recognition of Palestinian statehood sits uneasily alongside intelligence sharing, weapons procurement, and military coordination. The question is no longer whether Europe and Israel disagree, but whether they still understand each other at all. In this conversation, Jonathan Sacerdoti is joined by former Israeli Ambassador to the EU and NATO Ronny Leshno Yaar, and Professor Sharon Pardo of Ben Gurion University, to examine whether Europe has turned against Israel, or whether the reality is more structurally complex and morally uncomfortable. Drawing on diplomatic experience, academic analysis, and personal history, they explore Europe’s changing identity, the return of antisemitism, Israel’s missteps in European politics, and the quiet depth of cooperation that continues despite the noise. 👁‍🗨 Watch if you want to understand why Europe’s posture towards Israel appears hostile yet remains dependent, and what that means for Israel’s future in a changing West. 💬 We Discuss: 🧭 Why Europe is not a single actor, but a shifting collection of interests, institutions and contradictions 🧬 How Jewish history is embedded in European identity, and why that inheritance is now contested 📉 The return of antisemitism after October 7, and Europe’s failure to confront it structurally 🏛️ How Israel aligned with Europe’s right and what it gained and lost by doing so 🛡️ Europe’s quiet military and intelligence defence of Israel, despite public condemnation ✈️ Why people to people ties, from academia to travel, may matter more than diplomacy ⚖️ Whether Israel can afford deep cooperation with Europe while facing existential political disagreements 🔔 Subscribe for more fearless conversations about world affairs, freedom and the fight for truth. 📲 Follow Jonathan On X: https://x.com/jonsac On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jonathansacerdoti/ On Substack: https://jonsac.substack.com/ 👇 Comment below — can Israel and Europe remain partners if they no longer share a moral language? #Israel #Europe #EuropeanUnion #Antisemitism #MiddleEast #Geopolitics #JonathanSacerdoti

Fleur Hassan Nahum has worked at the sharp end of politics, media and national crisis. As a former Deputy Mayor of Jerusalem and Special Envoy for Innovation, she has dealt directly with international leaders, hostile broadcasters and the pressures that follow war into every public space. In this conversation with Jonathan Sacerdoti, she lifts the lid to reveal the real workings of media and politics, drawing on her own personal experience. She reflects on her repeated appearances on Piers Morgan Uncensored and explains why she became increasingly critical of the programme, and the man. She describes a media environment that rewards confrontation, elevates extreme voices and treats serious issues as clickbait content. She discusses her own interactions with Benjamin Netanyahu, assessing his political skill and strategic instincts alongside the divisions, communication failures and long term costs of leadership during war. 👁‍🗨 Watch if you want to understand how personal experience exposes institutional failure, and why October 7 tested the credibility of the West.

Condemned by mobs on the streets of the West, denounced by governments across Europe and beyond, and vilified by the United Nations and its satellite institutions, Israel might nevertheless be in a stronger strategic position than at any point in its history. Two years after October 7th, Israel’s international standing has deteriorated even as its regional power has expanded. What appears in Western capitals as isolation and moral failure is understood very differently in the Middle East, where strength is measured not by approval but by the capacity to act, to endure condemnation, and to defeat enemies who interpret restraint as weakness. In this conversation, Jonathan Sacerdoti speaks with Dan Schueftan, Head of the International Graduate Programme in National Security at the University of Haifa, about why Israel is emerging from this war in a dramatically improved strategic position, despite unprecedented hostility from Western opinion. Schueftan argues that Israel has dismantled Iran’s regional architecture piece by piece, humiliated Islamist movements across multiple fronts, and forced Arab regimes to confront an uncomfortable reality. Their own survival now depends less on Western guarantees and more on a strong, feared, and determined Israel. The discussion moves beyond the battlefield to examine why Europe has drifted from strategic thinking into ideological paralysis, why progressive politics treats self defence as a moral failure, and why Israel’s greatest strength lies not in its political leadership but in a society willing to fight, endure and rebuild without illusions. 👁‍🗨 Watch if you want to understand why Israel’s unpopularity in the West has coincided with a historic consolidation of power in the Middle East, and what that reveals about the condition of Western civilisation. 💬 We Discuss: 🧱 Why legitimacy in the West matters less than deterrence in the Middle East 🔥 How Iran’s proxy network was degraded through sequential confrontation 🛡 Why fear, not affection, is the foundation of regional stability 🏛 How European politics abandoned strategy for moral exhibitionism 🧠 Why progressive ideology treats weakness as virtue 👨‍👩‍👧 How Israeli social resilience outperformed political leadership ⚔ The shift from reactive defence to pre emptive security doctrine 🔔 Subscribe for more fearless conversations about Britain, freedom and the fight for truth. 📲 Follow Jonathan On X: ⁠https://x.com/jonsac⁠ On Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/jonathansacerdoti/⁠ On Substack: ⁠https://jonsac.substack.com⁠ 👇 Comment below — can a society survive when it confuses moral approval with the will to defend itself? #israel #DanSchueftan #JonathanSacerdoti #MiddleEast #Iran #WesternCivilisation #Security #Geopolitics

For years, British public life told itself a comforting lie: that tolerance meant silence, that compassion meant compliance, and that asking hard questions was somehow immoral. Josh Howie no longer believes that story. In this uncompromising conversation with Jonathan Sacerdoti, Howie explains how comedy, journalism and politics were quietly captured by fear. Not fear of violence, but fear of social punishment: being labelled, deplatformed, or cast out for stating obvious truths. Now host of Free Speech Nation on GB News, Howie describes how institutions surrendered their authority through cowardice rather than coercion. He traces how activists reshaped language, how journalists abandoned clarity, and how dissent was redefined as extremism. He also speaks candidly about antisemitism on the contemporary left, the vulnerability of Jews caught between hostile extremes, and why historical memory makes neutrality impossible. What emerges is a conversation about free speech not as a slogan, but as the last line of defence between democracy and ideological conformity. 👁‍🗨 Watch if you want to understand how Britain reached a point where telling the truth feels like a political act. 💬 We discuss: 🎭 Why comedians became the last people willing to speak plainly 📰 How mainstream media normalised omission and distortion 🧠 The capture of language and the policing of thought ⚖️ Why women’s rights and biological reality were reframed as hate 🕍 Antisemitism on the left and the collapse of old political loyalties 🏛️ How institutions surrendered authority through fear and careerism 🧭 Political homelessness and the erosion of left–right meaning 🚨 Why dissent is now treated as danger rather than necessity 🗣️ Free speech as a cultural immune system — and what happens when it fails 🔔 Subscribe for more unflinching conversations about power, culture and the battle for truth in Britain. 📲 Follow Jonathan: X: https://x.com/jonsac Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jonathansacerdoti/ Watch without adverts on Substack (for paid subscribers): https://jonsac.substack.com 👇 Comment below — Has Britain lost the courage to tell the truth, or just the will to pay the price for it? #JoshHowie #JonathanSacerdoti #FreeSpeech #MediaFailure #CulturalCapture #GBNews #Antisemitism #UKPolitics #Comedy #Truth
