Thank you for being with us. We start this hour here in the uk where the government has begun releasing prisoners early from jails in england and wales, as part of an Emergency Bid to Ease Overcrowding. A lack of Prison Space is a common issue the united states is predicted to be 10 over capacity by 2025. And even denmark renowned for the relative comfort of its cells is renting Jail Space in kosovo. Around 1,750 inmates are expected to be freed in england and wales as part of a scheme intended to make available up to 5,500 Prison Places. Some offenders whove served at least 40 of their sentences will be released. The plan excludes offenders jailed for violent offences with sentences of at least four years, as well as Sex Offenders and domestic abusers. The government says its taken every measure available to protect the public but concerns have been expressed about Offender Rehabilitation and ensuring victims are safe. And this is the scene live outside Hmp Brixton in South London whe
Are already addressing it because just as the last Labour Government brought Child Poverty right down, so will this government and we will work with you and others and everybody in the room to make sure we make that commitment because its so important to us and we will work with you on it so Thank You for raising it. On the question of offences against retail workers. This truly is shocking. You have raised a number of times and there was a very important campaign on it. I went to warrington to an Iceland Store there to talk to staff it was there to talk to staff it was the first thing they spoke to me about. I went to swindon to morrisons shop and we had an extended session and the number one issue for them was the abuse that they were coming under. Sometimes in relation to shoplifting, which is prevalent as you know, but also more generally and then in southampton in smaller shops but still it was the same issue over and over again. Its not acceptable, can be acceptable in any circum

It 4096 of their sentence rather than 5096 than 50 . It was the only 0 tion than 50 . It was the only option on than 50 . It was the only option on the than 50 . It was the only option on the table than 50 . It was the only option on the Table And L than 50 . It was the only option on the table and thats because the alternative to not making this change would have been to allow the Prison System to collapse and therefore to allow the Law And Order in this country to collapse. But these Emergency Measures are controversial with big concerns from some Prison Staff and campaigners about Public Safety and an increase in reoffending. They have nowhere to live, they fall back they have nowhere to live, they fall back into drug taking, they fall back into drug taking, they have Mental Health difficulties already. If they are not difficul
