Prisoners 'spend too long in cells'
Official claims that prisoners spend 10 hours a day out of their cells on weekdays are inflated, according to research by the chief inspector of prisons.
Anne Owers says that the figures are a "significant overestimate" of what overcrowded prisons can achieve. A survey of 6,500 prisoners had shown 50% spend less than six hours a day out of their cell and for 20% it is less than two hours.
A mixture of law, politics, autobiography and humour. Once described as "The Devilish Advocate" (Guardian), I do have the ability to provoke a response. Sometimes it comes from someone who uses a thought process, and sometimes from jerks usually associated with the knee.
