Prisoner’s blog rattles Ministry of Justice
Shepton Mallet prisoner Ben Gunn’s blog has got the Ministry of (In)Justice all in a tizzy, and his blog is only 23 days old.
"Note to right-wing hang em and flog em crackpots – yes we know Ben Gunn is a murderer, he admits it himself quite openly, that he committed an awful crime when he was 14 years old. He has now been inside for 30 years, on a sentence with an original 10 year tariff, largely because he has stood up for himself against the powers that be".

This latest post by Ben is a blinder. Even if by putting the cat among the pidgeons it is bound to ruffle a few feathers.
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.
No ifs, no buts, the fact that a juvenile offender can spend 30 years inside beggars belief, fullstop.
