Should Andy Burnham decide when a killer deserves release?

from James O'Brien Daily

Can Andy Burnham reverse the decline of Britain’s high streets? James explores why so many town centres are filled with empty units, vape shops and betting shops. Then, as the government looks for a way to prevent the early release of PC Andrew Harper’s killers, James asks whether public outrage should ever override the justice system. If the Prime Minister intervenes in one emotive case, where does it end? This episode was recorded on the 11th of August.
