Contributions from governors like Paul Yates are vital to reducing reoffending and keeping the public safe. #BlackHistoryMonth is as much about making history as it is about remembering it. Congratulations, Paul, on your well-deserved OBE. — PolitiTweet.org

Super courtrooms, Nightingale Courts and limit-free sitting days have laid the platform for crown court recovery in the most difficult of circumstances. I will push hard to reduce outstanding cases and restore swift access to justice for victims. — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks to the employers who joined me today to hear why recruiting prison leavers is good for business and helps cut crime. I'm determined to improve job prospects for offenders as part of my plan to drive down reoffending. https://t.co/Nakg6RIDo7 #SeeWhatsOnTheInside https://t.co/8tArR4Frsn — PolitiTweet.org

I want more employers to see the potential in ex-offenders as they look to fill vacancies. I’ve set out my plan in @thetimes to get prisons working closer with them to plug skills gaps in the economy and cut crime at the same time. https://t.co/wIz946ptc1 — PolitiTweet.org

I want more prison governors to follow the lead of Andrew Davy, Governor of @ford_hmp, who is getting prisoners trained up and into decent jobs. There’s no better way we can help cut reoffending than by showing prisoners the way out of crime. https://t.co/n2lvIbk7U2 — PolitiTweet.org

Dominic Raab @DominicRaab

I want to cut reoffending by getting more prisoners skilled and into work. Good to meet two today, Andy & Dean, and their boss Stuart @LyonsHaulage. Andy and Dean told me that having a job gives them something to prove and something to lose. https://t.co/yymlJNti3D — PolitiTweet.org

Dominic Raab @DominicRaab

Our new laws mean terrorists spend longer behind bars & face stricter supervision to keep the public safe. These proposed @SentencingCCL guidelines will ensure punishments fit the severity of the crime. https://t.co/kUiaIpFHuk — PolitiTweet.org

Dominic Raab @DominicRaab

Great to speak to @suezUK and @greeneking today about how ex-offenders are helping them fill vacancies, which also reduces reoffending. I'm hosting a summit on Thursday so more employers can work with prisons to fill jobs and help us cut crime. Visit https://t.co/5hIbm4USm9 — PolitiTweet.org

Our firm but fair Borders Bill is back in the Commons today. It will help minimise delays in our immigration system by preventing repeated appeals in cases the courts have ruled to be without merit. — PolitiTweet.org

Heartbroken that we have lost Sir David Amess MP. A great common sense politician and a formidable campaigner with a big heart, and tremendous generosity of spirit - including towards those he disagreed with. RIP my friend. — PolitiTweet.org

Dominic Raab @DominicRaab

I am committed to delivering the prison places needed to keep offenders off the streets and cut crime. We're consulting on a new 240-place houseblock at HMP Gartree - part of our £4bn plan for 18,000 additional places across the estate. https://t.co/AcSaiKqB0Y — PolitiTweet.org

The Census Data call centre @HMPHighDown allows prisoners to gain skills & helps them get jobs on release. Employing ex-offenders can plug skill shortages & cut re-offending. I invite all employers to join our @NewFutrsNet summit to find out more 👇 https://t.co/apF9DabRGX https://t.co/kE2JBlV6OD — PolitiTweet.org

Great to meet Buster too - one of the many talented dogs @hmphighdown whose detection abilities lead to the prosecution of those attempting to smuggle contraband and help keep the prison drug-free. https://t.co/PFv8815dtV — PolitiTweet.org

Dominic Raab @DominicRaab

It was a pleasure to meet Jo Simms, the inspiring governor of HMP High Down, and see first-hand the power of trail-blazing prison governors to turn prisoners’ lives around. I’m looking forward to meeting more and working to spread best practice across the prison estate. https://t.co/qbHDRsKOGL — PolitiTweet.org

Dominic Raab @DominicRaab

Today @hmphighdown I saw how X-ray body scanners stop illegal items entering jails to keep prisons safe and stable. This new technology has stopped 10k smuggling attempts in 74 prisons in the last year, boosting our fight against organised crime. https://t.co/HF2GGNolGc https://t.co/530yctWBOp — PolitiTweet.org

The situation at Oakhill STC is unacceptable and the details of the Ofsted report are truly shocking. I am now considering urgent next steps for the future of Oakhill and will set out a plan shortly. — PolitiTweet.org

At HMPs Hewell and Aylesbury, prisoners are being trained to repair bicycles for our brilliant keyworkers. New skills mean more opportunities upon release and a reduced chance of reoffending. I will improve employment prospects for offenders as a crucial way of cutting crime. — PolitiTweet.org

Dominic Raab @DominicRaab

Our drive to protect people from crime by providing prison leavers with basic, temporary housing is working as shown by the BBC. Their report also highlights the brilliant work by probation officers like Lauren to help offenders turn their lives around: https://t.co/0gDqlyoEtb — PolitiTweet.org

This is such sad news. My thoughts and prayers are with James’s family. I got to know James from 2006 onwards and worked with him in govt. A smart and brilliant politician, and just a terrific guy. He will be so sorely missed. — PolitiTweet.org

Dominic Raab @DominicRaab

Covid-19 cases in prisons are at their lowest for 3 months – thanks to our decisive measures and hard-working staff. That means we can offer more education and training – improving rehabilitation and ultimately cutting crime. https://t.co/cDrIYsvcpZ — PolitiTweet.org

Home must be a place of safety and refuge for everyone, not least those who have experienced abuse. Our partnership with @NYorksPolice ensures victims can’t be contacted from within prison, preventing abusers from continuing their campaign of terror behind bars. — PolitiTweet.org
