        The 15,000 reduction - 18% of the current prison population - has allegedly been recommended by Public Health England and the Prison Service (HMPPS). Details are set out in a submission from Prison Governors’ Association @PGA_Prisons to @CommonsJustice - seen by @BBCNews

        This is well above the 4,000 early releases @MoJGovUK has agreed to. PGA says 4,000 figure is not achievable given strict criteria for offenders to be freed. It reckons 2,000 will be released which it says is nowhere near enough to free up spaces in jails, as necessary.

        That’s a far more realistic number to have any impact

        Well, I wouldn’t hold your breath, I’ve been trying to get one of my elderly prisoners released early as he only has a few days to go but almost all OMU staff are on self isolation & getting licence conditions in place is really difficult as the probation service is so depleted.

        Be a damn sight safer and more productive to get in knowledgeable staff to work on the admin for prisoners to be released, rather than put more staff in to prisons! Many more lives will be saved that way surely?

        This must not happen. They are a danger and a menace.
