   If you are ever called to jury service, always remember that in the UK the jury is entitled to bring in what's called a “perverse verdict”: accepting that the accused committed the crime, but finding them not guilty anyway.

   The government hates juries knowing this.

     Why do I say governments hate this? Because they're prepared to imprison people who tell juries about that right.
