Ian Acheson 🇬🇧☘️

I'm going to stand up for the rights of prison officers to work safely & protect national security. I don't care how inconvenient my views are or how overlooked I am as a result. The state and its agents have failed in a basic moral duty. That is worth more than gongs, trust me.

I'm away off this site for a rest cure lads. Mind yourselves and see yous later!

I don't get this. @FeileBelfast have platformed former convicted terrorists but won't allow a group of women @ni_wrn to take part 🤷‍♂️

@Norfolkforever @TheExtremeMusi1 🤯

@TheExtremeMusi1 @NotThatBigIan Loved Mick Hucknall.

They definitely don’t make them like this anymore.

@AlexJJNorris I've changed the wording to protect my sources but Britain's 'Alcatraz' is far from being a happy ship. I'm sure you'll take an interest in this @NJ_Timothy, even if the man you shadow is too busy having canapes with the CJS commentariat.

Additionally: 'all the good Supervisory Officers are purposely kept in offices to keep them away from having influence on the houseblocks and as a cnsequence saying ‘no’ to dangerous working practices. This results in further decline as the ‘yes men’ managers fail to implement effective discipline on their house blocks and won't challenge senior managers who are happy for us to work unsafely to meet fatuous targets.'

I won't speculate on the trial of Joshua Kerry but I note his trial is set for June next yr. He's apparently been remanded to HMP Belmarsh - a jail which I'm told by multiple credible sources has severe control problems. I'd be v interested, @AlexJJNorris Justice must be done.

@AlexJJNorris For example: 'Belmarsh is currently running at around 40% non-effective, which means around 60 officers short each day.'

Absolutely shameful.

@SeeRedWoman1 Surely 'wan' ?

@TyroneGirl76 It must be the new tablets.

He's sat on planters more times than Alan Titchmarsh. What a malign, boring little man.

@history99917180 Congratulations!

Well, it’s official, this washed up old traffic cop has a Degree in history and religion. I am so bloody proud. I completed one module whilst receiving chemo treatment and I wrote essays hooked up to a drip. I did it mum, I did it.

Is @AlexJJNorris going to do the decent thing and order the release of crime data?

@RachelK01840150 Here is your emergency nature antidote!

@NotThatBigIan Blimey, Ian, you are a proper little ray of sunshine this morning!🌞

Hi Alex! You've got about a week before officials at the Ministry of Everyone Else's Fault baffle you with bullshit. Try to bear in mind that your largest organisation, HMPPS, used to be a law enforcement agency, not a state funded drugs cartel. No order, no control, no *hope*.

And...he waited less than 24 hours before fear of being irrelevant (too late, wee Daz!) pushed him into some effete back stabbing.

Human sandbag (retd).

@history99917180 @rogueparliament I could be wrong. I often am! Time will tell!

@NotThatBigIan @rogueparliament Fair enough mate. I agree. Let’s see what she does. I genuinely wish her well, but I just like to see consistency.

She's a convicted fraudster as a matter of fact. It's a good punchline but it will age badly. People are entitled to make mistakes, own them and move on. Let's judge her on what she does, not on a years old low level spent conviction.

@history99917180 My point is that there's no automatic bar here. Some people think there should be, others don't. I'm simply giving my opinion based on these details. Rehabilitation is imprortant. If we applied a purity test to all MPs you could reconvene parliament in a phone box.

@NotThatBigIan Cops who are sacked for dodgy tweets are barred from policing. They don’t get a second chance.
