Plans to build three new prisons as part of a £4.7bn spend will now go ahead after the Treasury signed off on funding, a senior minister has said.

On Wednesday, justice secretary Shabana Mahmood said the Treasury would fund “in full” plans to build the prisons, in a bid to create 14,000 extra places by 2031 to tackle a severe shortage.

By 2031 . . pretty sure you can add at least 5 years to that.

£4.7bn spend . . pretty sure you can double that

oh, and I'm damn positive I'd never have afforded pension contributions equivalent to £54k a year payment - and pay no tax on it
