    Worked here for just 11 days in 2015. I have to say I was appalled by the conditions; it was horrific. They even had a section of one of the wings they called, ‘the dungeons,’ and dungeons they were. Horrible place!

    I was born in East Acton at Henchman Street in 1952, my friend lived at No. 1 Braybrook Street, we were able to wave at the prisoners from her bedroom, as children we had no idea what went on there, this is an eye opener and sad, thank you for putting it out there

    I was in there for Borstal allocation way back in 1972 , I was 16 years old . The size of the wings is awsome . I learned in the end to 'go straight'.

    John was in the scrubs from 03 to 08 and I can honestly tell you it is what u say an absolute fucking shitpit. Rats the size of cats fucking roaches at night all climbing up the bunk . Screws smashing cons up down the block . Racism is rife and suicides ten fold . We all know that jail is a punishment but the scrubs ain’t fit for people to live sleep n eat in . As for the grub I won’t even go there 😂

    There is a saying in the Prison Service. “They’re all volunteers.” Which is true.

    All prisoners should be entitled to a health care policy which should be put in place in a given time frame eg blood test or urine samples would allow health care practised and monitored take care of their health and put in place mental health activities to help control prison systems and offenders to get out of control

    So speaks a biased ex prisoner. I completed 34 years service in every rank up to Governor (including Scrubs). Most prisoners just wanted to do their time and most staff were doing pretty much the same as them. Some rather unpleasant and dangerous prisoners had to be treated accordingly but staff had to maintain control as there was no one to come to the rescue.

      I'd agree, I've been inside, the people that won't conform will get harsh treatment, but if they break laws then get violent with cops and screws, what do they think will happen, right?

    A former convict complaining about prison.🤣🤣 All about prisoners ‘rights’, what about their victims rights? Prison should be a living hell, then cons wouldn’t be soon keen to go back.

    He's talking a load of bollocks, I was imprisoned at 15 but never found that anything untoward before being sent to borstal. Most of the screws were pleasant and easygoing. If they had injured anyone it would have been known instantly.
