There was a story recently about all the sexual abuse by guards at HMP Berwyn. I don't have a source to hand but I think there have been 6 suicides and a murder just this year at HMP Bristol. So it doesn't surprise me that much.
Meanwhile what are the Conservative's priorities? Making offenders attend sentencing. And making possession of laughing gas illegal - so we can waste more police time and send more people to prison over something that doesn't matter at all.
