A serving HM Prison officer. Feel free to ask questions! I'm anonymous and will be keeping it that way. My views don't represent HMPS.

Be prepared for a flurry of inspection reports on prisons, delayed due to purdah. Likely to reveal dire state of prisons to new Sec of State

[HMP_Screw @HMP_Screw]

@LenninKim @PrisonUK Add in staff shortages and the usual sickness and restricted duties...

[HMP_Screw @HMP_Screw]

Hearing about some quite violent and nasty attacks on staff across several different jails. Some life threatening.

[HMP_Screw @HMP_Screw]

Is it safe to come back yet? Has the politics finished?

[HMP_Screw @HMP_Screw]

@PrisonUK @SRefil @J4BenGeen @MissWHU @hm_nopleasure @PrisonStorm @fmspear @JoleneHarper Guaranteed! #PrisonStorm

@jillyuk_50 @itaintmyway @PrisonStorm @JoleneHarper @fmspear @hm_nopleasure Did he appeal?

[HMP_Screw @HMP_Screw]

@PrisonStorm @hm_nopleasure @fmspear @JoleneHarper Research shows it's not sentences but the chance of being caught effects offender choices #PrisonStorm

@J4BenGeen @SRefil @MissWHU @PrisonUK @hm_nopleasure @PrisonStorm @fmspear @JoleneHarper Main smoke free effort to be done by the end of august this year across all HMP

[HMP_Screw @HMP_Screw]

@J4BenGeen @PrisonStorm @hm_nopleasure @fmspear @JoleneHarper I work at a busy city prison and we have a low officer to prison ratio when it comes to BME etc. We need the diversity and language skills!

[HMP_Screw @HMP_Screw]

@PrisonUK @hm_nopleasure @PrisonStorm @fmspear @JoleneHarper I don't think we're far off. Lots of prisons going smoke free this summer too. Let's see what happens...

[HMP_Screw @HMP_Screw]

@CleanSheetUK_JG #PrisonStorm privatise all prisons and let HMP separate into a operational business. Ensure quality service.

[HMP_Screw @HMP_Screw]

@PrisonStorm @fmspear @hmpps That would help. Need someone who has been successful in business or leadership to change the service. Michael Spurr doesn't inspire me.

[HMP_Screw @HMP_Screw]

@PrisonStorm #PrisonStorm we need to adapt to change, use technology and be at the forefront of custodial services. Let's be innovative!

[HMP_Screw @HMP_Screw]

@fmspear @PrisonStorm Not just the ministers but the chiefs at HMPPS, and hierarchy. A new culture needs to come from the top to the ground floor. #PrisonStorm

[HMP_Screw @HMP_Screw]

@PrisonStorm Culture needs to change. A complete overhaul of the system required. Will never work with current leadership #PrisonStorm

[HMP_Screw @HMP_Screw]

@PrisonStorm Much of the same.

[HMP_Screw @HMP_Screw]

@MetalGareth @LenninKim Our uniform is the lowest quality around!

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

Former Met officer Peter Kirkham is absolutely damning about the government's police cuts:

[HMP_Screw @HMP_Screw]

Alarming to hear about recent finds in prisons. Drones really challenge the security and safety when the payload is weapons of all kinds...
