He has a right to a trial by jury, not indefinite detention.

How is right to trial in the UK codified in terms of their legal tradition? Is that covered in the (implicit) English Constitution, or their case law somewhere?

I’m not an expert on UK law. However this has been generally accepted for about a millennium:

The Magna Carta -

“No free man shall be seized, imprisoned, dispossessed, outlawed, exiled or ruined in any way, nor in any way proceeded against, except by the lawful judgement of his peers and the law of the land.”

not a comment? I feel like most of the people on this forum do not actually care about anything unless there is a business angle. That's my two sense.

The article was only posted an hour ago

However, there was also this one posted a day ago with just 2 comments:
