Jesus £1000! Would be good if it was a high profile case though

[Novo]

No mercy on poor drug addicts or defenceless Alcoholics

[Kate!]

There are potential perks though, when the neighbour I mentioned did her Jury service, the case lasted ages and they had to all be sequestered in a Liverpool hotel, she said the food was awesome and all paid for and the hotel was quite luxurious.

Being stuck in a courtroom in nice weather though, yeah wouldn't like that at all, that's the downside. Also I'd be anxious about reprisals if I had to help convict a rapist or murderer.

I think forcing people to do jury service is ridiculous.

[Novo]

I'm not really bothered about doing it myself but it would be better if people had the option to put themselves forward for it, that way you'd have people who actually have the desire to it actually doing it rather then people who just won't take it seriously at all like myself

[Niamh.]

You'd probably end up with a load of Norris/Mary types doing it then though

[Kate!]

Niamh had a good point when she mentioned people should be able to volunteer for it, it seems worthy of consideration really, rather than enforcing people whose hearts are not in it and implementing a £1000 fine. Unfair. It's not everyone's cup of tea. Surely it would be best to get people who really want to do it...although it would depend on their motivation as well

I would love to do jury duty
