OF TERRORISTS RELEASED AS FEARS GROW FREED IN YEAR Top politician­s’ Twitter fall-out

-

A ROW has erupted between the Home Secretary and a former Government minister over Khan’s early release. Labour’s Yvette Cooper said the Government was “warned about the risks” of ending Imprisonme­nt for Public Protection (IPP). But Priti Patel blamed laws brought in by Labour in 2008. The IPP regime was brought in to protect the public from dangerous prisoners, but was scrapped in 2012. In a series of tweets, Ms Cooper said the Government was “warned” about the risks.

The Home Secretary responded, saying the law was changed “to end Labour’s automatic release policy”.
