The Spectator reports:

Up in Scotland, [you know that part of the UK full of 'separatists' rather like Eastern Ukraine] the SNP has [sic] 800 more prisoners will be released early to ease prison overcrowding.

Apparently, this is to ensure that those who work in prisons remain safe. 

The remainder of the prisoners in Scotland's prison system are expected to be released later in the year to ensure that prison staff are never threatened again and can work without harm or hindrance.

We asked one of the prisoners who will be freed, Rab C. Nesbitt, from the leafy Glasgow suburb of Govan, what he thought:

That prison was messin' wi' ma' heed. All they trans-people in the khazis checking out ma' tackle.

Anyone for a bevy?
