The Imprisonment for public protection (IPP) sentence has been called a ‘stain on the British justice system’ and ‘psychological torture’. I spoke about its horrors in an interview a couple of years ago. pod.link/1766993766/episode/… Fast forward to about 10 minutes in.

"Just as David Tennant’s character bemoans the lack of training or education for young men in custody, so do prison staff across the country. They know what is blindingly obvious: angry people don’t come out of prison less angry if they’ve been banged up for 23 hours a day."

Serco keeps landing public contracts despite repeated failures, while overstretched probation officers are pushed to breaking point.
It's time to bring electronic monitoring and probation services back in-house. Public safety should come before private profit.

The trauma of these indefinite sentences doesn’t end at the prison gates.
The psychological torture of IPP sentences continues to kill. This injustice must end.
How many more people have to die before this historical injustice is truly fixed?

The UK needs to end its obsession with prisons | Three quarters of prisons are overcrowded, meaning that in practice rehabilitation takes second place to warehousing inmates in cells where they can be kept for up to 23 hours a day: national.thelead.uk/p/the-uk…

Last week, Yahyaa received devastating news. A childhood friend from his town took his own life. He was an IPP prisoner, released on licence that had just ended. After years of imprisonment, he was left lost, alone, and forgotten.
The #IPPscandal continues to destroy lives.
