Excerpt from Her Majesty's Prisons, Their Effects and Defects, Vol. 2 of 2: By One Who Has Tried Them
The prisons are divided into a first and second class according to their size, and it is a common, and as far as I can judge pretty correct complaint, that the first class prisons get anything they require, while the second class are left to pig along as best they can. At the former, the chief warders get 1502. Per annum, and a house and uniform. At the latter, the salary commences at lool. Per annum, house and uniform, and rises by yearly incre ments of 2l to 1207. At the Xshire Prison (which is rated as second class) the chief warder under the county got 80l. Per annum, with house, fuel, light, uniform, and boots. In this arrangement the second class prisons certainly went to the wall, for before the Govern ment took the prisons the salaries of chief warders were all much the same (80l. A year being an exceptionally high one) but here there was only an immediate gain of 20l. Per annum, while at others the salary was just Upon doubled.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book critically examines the UK prison system from the author's perspective as an inmate. It provides insights into the challenges faced by prisoners, focusing on issues like mistreatment by staff and a lack of access to basic amenities. The author argues that while the system is designed to rehabilitate offenders, in reality, it often exacerbates pre-existing issues and fails to prepare prisoners for reintegration into society. The book highlights the need for a fundamental overhaul of the prison system, emphasizing the importance of providing prisoners with the support and opportunities they need to turn their lives around.
