As Honest Bob Jenrick tours the country repeating far-right conspiracy talking points about “two-tier sentencing”, here is the letter his own government sent to the Sentencing Council last year approving the very Guidelines he now claims are evidence of “two-tier Keir”.

Yes, Conservatives. The pilot scheme Cambridge Council ran resulted in better staff retention, recruitment easier, no drop in productivity and above all happier and healthier staff. Win:win all round. We were going to start a trial where I work until Tories kiboshed it
