Why are UK prisons so overcrowded? How has the standard of prisons deteriorated over the past 40 years? Why are reoffending rates so high? How do we improve working and living conditions in our prisons?


In this week’s episode, Zack Polanski is joined by General Secretary of the Prison Officers’ Association, and President of the Trades Union Congress, Steve Gillan.

Bold Politics Live is at Crossed Wires Festival in Sheffield on July 5th.
