It's commendable that this man is openly sharing his past criminal life, including the crimes he committed and his prison activities. Many people are reluctant to discuss their past so candidly. It's also notable that he communicates his experiences using appropriate language, avoiding slang or swearing. This suggests he has a deep understanding of his past mistakes and is dedicated to guiding the younger generation away from the same errors he made in his youth.

@@DavidKRoebuck The story is more nuanced than this. The ban was on prisoners receiving books from the outside from say, family and friends. Prisoners were expected to earn the right to acquire money through prison jobs and good behaviour which could be used to buy books. The other issue is that prison libraries were subject to massive cuts just like all public services, so what prisoners had access to were much more limited (apparently prison libraries are directly funded by the Local Authority where the prison is located). The High Court eventually ruled that this was unlawful, so it was reversed. This all happened around 10 years ago.

@DionysusOsiris403 ай бұрын
In my experience, first time offenders are generally treated better by the staff & system, although not necessarily by other prisoners. Most notably, people are paired up with those deemed similar, so a 1st timer convicted of a non-violent offence would expect to share a cell with another non-violent newbie rather than a rowdy career criminal. Beyond that, provided you behave, are respectful towards staff, maintain hygiene and seek out legitimate opportunities, you will fare better than ~80% of other prisoners regardless of criminal record (nonces and grasses excluded). Things like your offence, length of your sentence, and how you navigate jail ‘politics’, also play a big role with the more charismatic, long termers getting more favours in general.

Unfortunately I’ve had that experience I started off in a young offenders which was a Cat A and it was brutal. This was in the year 2000, the staff were nasty a lot of them were ex military they were hard but fair. The others though just got off on making your life miserable. One officer said he’ll break my jaw because I asked him on my first morning for stuff to clean my cell with. If you got on their nerves they would put you in a cell with a violent offender and then place bets. They did it to one guy who kept kicking off because he wanted to go back to a jail up north. The guy was a known racist so they put an Asian lad in the cell with him to wind him up. He ended up beating him to ☠️ the night before he was due to get released. I ended going to court and going to another young offenders which wasn’t as bad but you still had to fight to prove yourself. I then turned 21 and went to an adult cat B prison. It was like night and day the adults were much more laid back and people looked out for me because I was young. You had tv and kettles in the cell which made such a difference. I only see 3 fights the whole time I was there. But hangings were quite common though the guy in the cell next to me did it one night and we got interviewed the next morning on what we heard and how he was the last time we see him etc. The cat c I was in the violence was more frequent and there were a lot more drugs in there. Most people did just weed which chilled everyone out, but the smack heads caused the most issues by stealing so they got dealt with for that. The D cat I went to was a godsend. I did a plumbing course in there and had all the help and support I needed for when I got out. I’ve been a plumber ever since and I’m married now with 2 kids my son starts university next month so I’m very proud of that. If people got the opportunity and support I did in a D cat then a lot more people would turn their lives around. But I’ve heard prison is very different now. I’ve heard it’s full of spice which has caused no end of problems. Most of the staff are female which has caused corruption and affairs etc. Plus budget cuts means that people are locked in their cells for 23 hours a day. I know this is a long reply but I’ve barely scratched the surface.

This is perhaps a naive question to ask but I am wondering...since there is so much security in all these prisons and the guards must know that the dealing etc is going on...why wouldn't they do the ultimate clearing of the prisons of all drugs, weapons etc? Sure, the inmates are armed in many instances but in the end, they are inmates so they are the ones being controlled. Is it about corruption? What makes it beneficial/ profitable for the prison authorities to keep the situation as is with all the internal crime? In the world we live in now, especially in the West, how difficult can it be to detect that someone has a phone on them? Or weed/ other substances/ Airports seem to have better security than many prisons. Just some random thoughts that have been on my mind.

The US has a reputation for our for-profit-prison system, I think other countries use that criticism to distract from their own use. In 2016 the UK and AUS passed the US for percentage of inmates held in for-profit systems after the US Federal prison system banned the practice, but nobody talks about it and most Brits and Australians I've talked to think for-profit-prisons are just a US thing.

Chris Grayling made a mess of everything he touched. How that man was allowed to be a cabinet minister defies all logic.

A lot of intelligence there, the way he communicates his thoughts and the manner of his speech is very impressive for someone who I am guessing is entirely self educated.

That point about £100 million spent to stop contraband, having absolutely no effect. So many instances like this where UK government spaffed mega cash up the wall, mostly probably gone to their rich party donors and boarding school friends in a consultancy. If they just hired people like this guy who understand the reality it'd get done 10x cheaper, and actually work.
