Where is Rumpole when you need him?

It appears that the courts are creaking under the amount of business they are having to contend with. It seems to me there are two answers - more courts or possibly less legislation? Of course what we shall get is almost certainly neither - instead there will be an extension of the "fixed penalty notice" approach, whereby you either have to tacitly admit your guilt by paying a fixed fine, or risk going to court and ending up with a far larger fine if you are found guilty. The idea of doing justice seems to have gone out of the window.
