Politics Today Why is Starmer releasing over 6,000 Prisoners?

In this week’s edition of Politics Today Simon Barrett is joined by Melanie Symonds, editor of Heart Newspaper and Alistair Scott UK Director for Vision for Israel.

This week the new Labour government has announced that they are going to tackle over crowding in our prisons by releasing over 6,000 prisoners in the coming weeks.

What impact will the early release of prisoners mean for the safety of our streets and how will the victims feel about many of these criminals only serving forty percent of their sentences?

This is a direct result of consecutive governments turning their back on our Christian heritage and allowing the breakup of the family leading to increasing lawlessness in our society.
