It’s inhumane & unjust, morally wrong & a waste of taxpayers money.
The Government could help fix the prison crisis by fixing the IPP altogether or at the very least, release those who’ve committed no further crime, which would empty one of the largest prisons entirely.
This lack of action is a deliberate choice by the current Government ministers. This action by them shows that once again people on an IPP are being further segregated and isolated and extremely shortsighted and potentially very harmful
Thread: We are extremely disappointed that yet again people on IPP sentences are being further penalised by the government by excluding them from the current changes to recall.
@ShabanaMahmood@JamesTCobbler
@JamesTCobbler You are spot on about having to do thing's differently. The whole prison service needs looking at too. You could also start by looking at those on an IPP that are 20 years plus over their tariff.
You are the perfect person for this job as you also believe in 2nd chances.
@1roddyRussell Ipp prisoners are still serving an abolished sentence ipp has been abolished for 13 years yet still they are inside prison forgotten by everyone except those that love and care for them they have no date to go home the government is ignoring ipp prisoners when will this ipp end
Day 58 of a new government
At least 90 people have taken their own life whilst in prison serving an IPP sentence. Last year saw the highest number in one year.

Thank you @BambosMP for raising IPP in Parliament today.
@ShabanaMahmood many are awaiting the implementation of the licence amendments. Please act swiftly on this before they lose the hope that has been offered with these changes.
@TheAnonymousIpp End this ipp sentence completely free the forgotten prisoners who have served their time over and over and over again end ipp sentence
This labour government is bloody dragging their feet bringing in this IPP amendment ain't they!? Set the date already, end my bloody licence & the bloody anxiety of being on it everyday. Give myself & my family some peace.
@JamesTCobbler Congrats on the new position in government. Hopefully you can start with all the prisoners that are on IPP and over their sentence.
I think you are the perfect man for this job.
