Yes ... "Jurors: you have an absolute right to acquit a defendant according to your conscience."

The High Court has slapped down the solicitor general’s “fanciful” attempt to prosecute Trudi Warner for contempt of court, declaring that the minister had “significantly mischaracterise[d] the evidence”.
...
But the judge was clear that if the solicitor general wants to address this concern, he should do it in parliament, “not by way of contempt proceedings”.

I hope that the Solicitor General does not see the latter as an invitation.

The Solicitor General doesn't get a chance to enact legislation now, because it would go to PingPong...
