@DC_Police fascinating reading your tweets over the last 12 hours. So many calls relating to domestic abuse and sexual violence, mental health and alcohol use. Quite clear what the public health priorities are to me.

This boils my blood. Open prison allows a transition for closed conditions to the wide world, relationships to be rebuilt work and home to be found for release. Raab is acting to please the daily mail readers without them being informed effectively. https://t.co/K4T6DFtESA

@CDinnage @itvnews Sorry it didn't help you, but many other people find it helpful.

@ServingIpp @PrisonR4rmAct They will tell you the Samaritans phone number is free but if you are sharing a cell you are not likely to confide on the phone and if you have to queue in the hallway you will get your 15min cut off before you get through

An accountancy body has published a grim assessment of the state of prisons, warning that high staff turnover is taking its toll on the conditions inside UK jails. It found that “staff retention worsened substantially” with 3,387 prison officers leaving their jobs in 2021/22.

@moribunddr I recommend reading The myth of normal by Dr Gabor Mate.

"The whole culture is designed to draw our attention away from what’s important and make us believe that what’s trivial is actually essential. And that’s both a consumer strategy, but it’s also a propaganda imperative." - @DrGaborMate

@hmpps Why treat men differently? Many are just as emotionally distressed as women, they need trauma informed, relationship based services that understand that all behaviour is underpinned by a feeling /need.

@rosiejustice12 @lovemymutleys @prisonbag weren't you working on this? £2.80 daily budget per adult prisoner doesn't allow for much once profits are taken off...
