Starmer backs radical reform as jail population doubles and cell space runs out | The Observer Increasingly long sentences have left the service on its knees. Now a raft of solutions will be unveiled to tackle a growing crisis

A photograph of a locked gate inside a prison, with a man standing in front, facing away from the camera. In the top left of the picture, there is a label saying "Lifting the lid on prisons: SENTENCE INFLATION".

Why are women still being sent to prison as ‘a place of safety’? | Eva Wiseman Reports are revealing the true harm done by incarcerating women under the guise of protecting them, writes Eva Wiseman

The author asks a very good question! Prison is absolutely not a place of safety for women. You could argue that the system is indeed broken, but with the introduction of the Women’s Justice Board, surely now is the time to really start to embed change? www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Punchy article by @POAnatchair Mark Fairhurst on the terrible state of our prisons

“Do we risk ending up with ‘Tainted Timpson’ to join ‘Failing Grayling’... Minister Timpson... needs to stop listening to the people who drove our jails into a ditch”
