A nice progressive move from Labour: apparently James Timpson is being given a peerage and made prisons minister. For non UK folk, his high street chain of key cutting and shoe repair shops has a policy of employing ex-convicts giving them decent jobs to avoid reoffending. It works.

Rehabilitation is supposed to be at the core of the UK prison system ,but alongside everything else that has been left to rot it has failed to deal with educational and vocational needs to help on the outside. A crying shame as actively employing former prisoners has reduced reoffending. Nice move.
