"I have no idea how someone like Jim would manage in the justice system...He would most definitely fail to appear in court. There are lots of Jims out there. People who are homeless have short lifespans, the average is 46 years for men and 42 for women." @karynmccluskey
A lovely tribute to ‘Organic Jim', a real Edinburgh character @karynmccluskey. As you say . . . ‘there are many Jim’s’. All of them with a story to tell if we stop and listen ❤️

Whatever the outcome of the election, our prisons and justice crisis isn't going away. The question of a presumption against short prison sentences will resurface soon. So here's our podcast @ShonaMinson @EdiwnaGrosvenor 👇@lawstrath @StrathHaSS @lawstrath @Punishment_CRN
New #JUSTICE episode explores suspended sentences & challenges assumptions on presumptions against short sentences. Do they result in fewer people in prison? @CyrusTata1, @ShonaMinson & @EdwinaGrosvenor explore this, & what impact it will have on women 👉

'The direct descendent of collective silence is collective forgetting.' The mass incarceration of women & girls in Ireland's magdelene laundries till 1990s. Human Rts discourse is also a tidying up of the past. Listen to the brilliant @Louise_Brangan 🙏👏
