British government is tackling chaos in prison

The British government has urgently put things in order in a prison.

Prison inspector Peter Clarke told British media that 'a dramatic deterioration in circumstances' has been detected in prison since the last inspection in February 2017. The situation turned out to be worse than the inspectors had ever seen anywhere, Clarke said. The corridors were littered with cockroaches, puke and blood. Prisoners drank alcohol and used drugs and terrorized the staff among others. More than once, staff members locked themselves up in an office for fear of the prisoners.
