- The first of a two-part series documenting the harrowing conditions experienced by many in the UK prison system. The documentary also reveals how the home office, when faced with evidence of serious assaults against prisoners, tried to buy their silence.
The Prisoner Solidarity Network is a group of people committed to dismantling the criminal justice system and building a society based on collective care. Our members include people inside and outside of prisons. Some of us are ex-prisoners and some are children, partners, or friends of people inside. Many of us are survivors of interpersonal and state violence. Some of us come to this work through our values rather than direct experience of the prison system.
We want to build a society where conflicts can be resolved without resorting to imprisonment and punishment, where our relationships with each other are not shaped by capitalism and where we are not divided by race, class, or gender.
we don’t see programmes like this any more. Love island, Towie and I’m a celebrity will keep the masses amused while the country goes to the dogs
True words bud, very true.
Totally agree
Keep the working class away from the voting ballot.
Bread and circuses, it’s worked since Roman times.
Home office keeping secrets about abuse and duty of care…..not much changed there then except it goes on everywhere now!
I don’t know why some of the bigger faces inside didn’t arrange for certain screws to have “ accidents “ outside after all they are quite easy to find working at a prison
Anybody know which film the movie footage is taken from?
I remember the brutality in the early 90’s as a young offender,grown men twice your size who would take pleasure,literally,in kicking the shit out of you. Months in segs. Isolation.Mental torture on a daily basis
Really. We're was you then
@@cmitch5685 that was in Polmont in Scotland
@@cmitch5685 it was standard practice then to have boys put on rules for 2 and 3 months at a time
I done time in the mid 90s young offenders institutes and it was much the same, screws torturing prisoners mentally and physically, the prisons I was in were still run under the old Borstal regime, it was a tough time to be locked up, nothing like today's prisons, no tvs and PlayStations you were lucky if you had small battery operated radio.
@@Del-Blanco-Diablo i got out in 95 and they were just beginning to put electric points in cells,only one wing had night sanitation too,the privelege wing,the rest was still slopping out
Body belts are still in use in Australia
I was down the block in Hull this is what the block is like broken Windows too high to block up a cardboard table and chair thst someone had poured water under the gloss paint so it's sagged and was useless ( I ended up getting another 6-weeks for that down there after I got out after 8 weeks) a metal bed with no mattress from 7 a.m. to 7pm at night and me in only a pair of underpants far too big for me but ended up a godsend in the end close to months I spent like that at the age of just 16 years originally for forgetting my prison number and forgetting to say sir
Eddie Holland,. Very hard man in his time, well respected 👍
This is medieval sh*t! Horrifying!
They appoint middleclass do gooders, even today, to inspect prisons.
these naive people are tricked and hood winked. Why not appoint ex prisoners to inspect prisons?
My first day in Brixton, the screw demanded I call him sir. I refused stating the only man I will call sir, has the Queens commission.
5K I bet that was his biggest earner in or outside 🤣👍
I THOUGHT DR STEPHEN SHAW WAS GARY KEMP.....DEADRINGER!!!😂😂😂
Even the restraint jackets that replaced the body belts are inhumane, i worked in the prison laundry and we would get the odd restraint jacket in for cleaning and i tried one on, very uncomfortable i couldnt imagine how uncomfortable it would be wearing it for long periods i only had it on for a couple of minutes and i couldnt wait to get the thing of.
then straight jackets back l8 70s n 80s they was unbelievable and threw u in a padded with sloped walls.. Hot in there and I was 15
@@Nick-fy1zp The handcuffs were fastened to the secure leather bels and one hand was supposed to be released to allow the prisoner to eat but in practice this rarely happened. In Strangeways once the syringe full of Chlorpromozine had been administered the belt and handcuffs were superfluous. Hardly humane.
@@Redesign24 maybe too stop you running into them with your head.
Prisons should be worse than this .
Get a grip you sad little man.
Hopefully you end up there some day u mug
The punishment is your freedom is taken away and your locked up in a 10x6 prison cell with another inmate after that it is supposed to be about rehabilitation getting you straight for your release not further punishment.
The prison guards are worse than the prisoners. Bunch of sadistic thugs. Like it's their moral duty to inflict pain on others.
Feeling sorry for rapists and child molesters, poor you
@@Alanhock75 the men they were mistreating eerent rapists or child molesters. Some were there for driving unlicensed vehicles and for fraud. In any event it doesn't give another person the right to torture another person. You probably think you're a good person because you would love to torture people that aren't perfect like you. You're an animal just like those sadistic guards.
Not all
Plenty good enough for the criminals
Hopefully you end up there someday
