At the Centre for Crime and Justice Studies we advance public understanding of crime, criminal justice and social harm. We are independent and non-partisan, though motivated by our values. We stand with those most vulnerable to social harm.
We believe that the United Kingdom's over reliance on policing, prosecution and punishment is socially harmful, economically wasteful, and prevents us from tackling the complex problems our society faces in a sustainable, socially just manner.
Shirley and Donna are an inspiration to those that have been struck down with this cruel sentence. The IPP sentence was scrapped for a reason. Those that are currently imprisoned are being held against their human rights.
racial disparities in youth justice? how about the racial disparity in perpetrators of crimes? i’m black i don’t like police i’ve been stopped too much unjustly but let’s not blow past the reality of crime
I’ve worked in prisons where there is no over crowding, good amenities, good food and still the prisoners weren’t happy about their conditions which led to riots and disturbances
I am not proud of my past, But back in the 70's I spent some time in strangeways, and the conditions were not great, But today, they are more like holiday camps, to quote an old cliche ! You think our prisons are tough ?. take a look at Russia's jails, they are tough.Prisoners in the British Isles have it far too cushy.That's why many return to their old habits. its no deterrent. never has been, Some of you guys make me laugh, When I was one of those so called hard done by prisoners, Which I never agreed with, I thought back then it was a doddle, and it was, Its really quite simple, If you cannot handle the so called harsh conditions of prison life, then keep your bloody nose clean ! don't go there.

He was severely burned and not to all these glasses on with string. No nos No ears. He was even bad to the Screws. Now imagine a 15 year old boy walking up onto that center. What would you be thinking
