Manage episode 428606578 series 1301219
Thousands of prisoners will be released early from September to ease overcrowding in English and Welsh prisons. The plans were announced by Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood, who blamed the previous Conservative government for the situation, calling it a "disgraceful dereliction of duty". We spoke to one prisoner who has just been released.
US President Biden is in Detroit, Michigan for a campaign rally, having failed to staunch the tide of Democratic politicians calling for him to end his bid for re-election over concerns about his mental acuity.
And we speak to two new MPs on how they've found their first week in Parliament.
