Tories: Sentencing review ‘ideological’ and ‘not justice’
Robert Jenrick says the independent review on sentencing carried out by former Conservative minister David Gauke is “not practical government” but “ideological”.
The shadow justice secretary describes Mr Gauke as a “prisons minister who wanted to reduce the number of people” in jails.
Mr Jenrick also says the proposals will put the “public at risk” and provide a “get out of jail card for criminals” by not sending some offenders to prison and releasing others early.
