THE Prime Minister "shares the public's anger" at images of prisoners being released early, including one who said "big up Keir Starmer".
'Anger' over early releases

Around 1,100 inmates are due to be freed in a second wave of early releases under the Government's policy to free up prison space.

Inmate Daniel Dowling-Brooks said "big up Keir Starmer" as he celebrated his release with his friends, mother and sister, who picked him up in a convoy of a white Bentley and black Mercedes G-Wagon outside HMP Swaleside in Kent.

The 29-year-old told reporters he had been in prison for seven years for kidnap and grievous bodily harm of someone who owed money to his friend, and was leaving jail seven weeks earlier than planned.

He said the first thing he would do is "go to McDonald's, go to my hostel and follow all the rules".
