@Tyson_Fury @ringmagazine Elliot Whale opened the undercard for your last fight and continued the KO train. He needs to be on this undercard too.

An open letter to @AlexJJNorris @MoJGovUK and @Parole_Board sent to you this morning in respect of IPP’s/DPP’s…..

@James_Treadwell James, they have to be high ROSH to achieve a hostel bedspace so in many cases the high ROSH assessment is artificial.

@UNGRIPP …. there is scope to conclude the reviews positively on the papers.

Too many members are far too cautious and direct cases to oral hearings which should result in paper releases. The Board can audit itself and assess what practitioners have known for some time.

[dean kingham @deankingham]

@UNGRIPP … Anyone directed to an oral hearing now faces waiting until early to mid 2027 for an oral hearing. Given the position for IPP’s this is unacceptable.
