    Fuckin clickbait toilet journalism, goes from “where prisoners call the shots” to “where prisoners tell the staff the rules” to “new staff so inexperienced that prisoners frequently have to tell new workers what they are supposed to do”

    🤢🤮

      Regardless of the quality of the headline, the idea that the prison system has reached a point where prison officers are in any way being instructed by prisoners is still alarming.

        Fair, but twist it the other way -

        “The prison system in the UK works so well in rehabilitating criminals, they know that good behaviour will help their cause and they will go out of their way to help a new prison guard to stop him getting in trouble for not knowing every part of the system from day one”

        It’s the same news story, just not specifically designed to make you angry

        It would be alarming. But here it is and it’s 2023 and this is just another day in our time line.

        I’m at a point where stuff like this isn’t a surprise anymore. It’s just normal and expected now.

        Our world leaders completely failed us.
