Today, we look at Chris Mason’s interview with prime minister Sir Keir Starmer, plus we discuss why more prisoners could be released early from UK prisons. Adam chats to Chris about his interview with the prime minister in Washington at the Nato summit. Keir Starmer said that Joe Biden was 'on really good form' and doubled down on the government’s commitment to increase defence spending to 2.5%. And the government is planning to release non-violent criminals early to free up space in prisons. Starmer’s emergency measures are expected to buy the government 18 months extra time, but what are the long-term solutions? Adam is joined by Lord Ken Macdonald, former Director of Public Prosecutions and co-host of Double Jeopardy, the Law and Politics Podcast.
