"This is not The Independent’s most popular campaign; many of these people did bad things. But they have been treated so very differently from other people who did similarly bad things that the injustice is as great as if they had been locked up for doing nothing." The Independent is doing a good thing by continuing to push for an end to the IPP sentences scandal. independent.co.uk/voices/editori…

1. Today, we are in David Lammy’s constituency for our IPP exhibition, but the crisis isn’t just happening here—it’s happening all over the country. For years, our families have been told that the IPP scandal is "too complex" to fix.

🚨Shamelessly whipping against amendments to the Sentencing Bill which would have been a significant step towards ending the shocking #IPPscandal was an act of sheer political cowardice and one which could cost lives. The simple fact is that as a consequence this government has now become responsible for allowing one of the most cruel, inhumane and monumental injustices of the past half-century - a scandal rightly described as a stain on our justice system - a scandal described by the UN rapporteur for torture as an egregious miscarriage of justice and psychological torture and one which likely breaches Article 3 of the Human Rights Act - to be continued and perpetrated - it’s absolutely shocking @UNGRIPP @ActionIpp @Trapped_Pod
