Jailhouse rot — Start Your Week with Alex Andreou and Jacob Jarvis

Jailhouse rot — Start Your Week with Alex Andreou and Jacob Jarvis

By Podmasters

Britain’s prisons are under the spotlight following Daniel Khalife’s escape from HMP Wandsworth. Alex Chalk did the damage control rounds over the weekend – but does the justice secretary have more problems than this high profile debacle? Meanwhile, a parliamentary researcher was arrested under suspicion of sharing official secrets with China. What does this mean for the UK’s relationship with Beijing? Plus we look back at the key developments from the G20 conference, the latest on Ukraine — and we examine the international aid efforts following the devastating earthquake in Morocco. Jacob Jarvis is joined in The Bunker by Alex Andreou to get you prepped for the week ahead.  “Wandsworth prison is built to hold 900 inmates and it currently hosts 1600. What did they think was going to happen?” – Alex Andreou “The government is managing the country like I tidy my bedroom, putting things vaguely out of sight and not actually dealing with them.” – Jacob Jarvis  “The government is just warehousing people, whether they’re asylum seekers, students or prisoners.” – Alex Andreou www.patreon.com/bunkercast  Written and presented by Jacob Jarvis and Alex Andreou.
