Elsewhere in today’s newsletter, Jay Blades has been charged with engaging in controlling or coercive behaviour towards his wife, and Ed Miliband has announced a £630m deal that means the Government will take control of the organisation behind Britain’s power systems.

Prisoners released early are already back in jail

The first criminal to be returned to prison is understood to have been recalled within 36 hours of being freed on Tuesday as part of the Government’s early release scheme. Around 1,750 prisoners were freed on Tuesday after jails in England and Wales came close to running out of space. Meanwhile, Sadiq Khan has said that prisoners should be allowed to jump the housing queue as part of efforts to cut crime.

The BBC presenter appeared at Kidderminster magistrates’ court on Friday after being charged with one count of engaging in controlling or coercive behaviour in an intimate or family relationship.

Carol Vorderman’s manifesto is lazy, narcissistic and deeply depressing ★☆☆☆☆

If you’d hoped that this book would be Vorderman’s move to legitimise herself in the political sphere, introducing suggestions for policies and reforms – you know, some useful ideas, as her subtitle, On a Mission to Fix Broken Britain, seems to promise – you would be almost entirely wrong.
