@stuey_beef The newly passed Sentencing Act 2026 is set to shift automatic release points later this year to one-third for standard offenses and a halfway point for serious ones, but it remains fully automatic.
@LastBlairite@nickyjimmys The BMA agreed to call off the mid-June strikes specifically so they could put the new deal to a vote.
If it's rejected there will be more strikes.
So it's premature at best to say that the strikes have been ended.
@trussliz The problem is the law. Specifically the Criminal Justice Act 2003, The Children and Young Persons Act 1933 (Section 44), and The Crime and Disorder Act 1998 (Section 34).
If only you had been in a position to change the law๐
@LauraTrottMP@Conservatives The Children and Young Persons Act 1933 (Section 44): Every court dealing with a child (criminal not the victim) must have regard to the welfare of the child (criminal not the victim).
@LauraTrottMP@Conservatives Section 142 of the Criminal Justice Act 2003 and Section 34 of the Crime and Disorder Act 1998 legally command courts to prioritize the welfare of the child (criminal not the victim) and the prevention of reoffending.

@Shiwon_NZ_Ao@Airbnb_uk I stopped using them when I had a bad experience and they wouldn't let me leave a (bad) review for the property / host. They said it was against their policy.
How can you trust the reviews if they refuse to allow bad reviews?
@LastBlairite The egregious decisions in this case must raise the question as to whether it is necessary to (re)introduce Diplock courts across the UK for terrorist/idealogically/politically related crimes.
On @bbcquestiontime tonight @lisanandy promised to answer the question "would she support Andy Burnham if he runs for Labour leader" then didn't.
This is why the general public hate politicians.
