We speak to Chris Daw QC, author of ‘Justice on Trial: Radical Solutions for a System at Breaking Point’. He discusses the UK’s arguably broken and oppressive legal system, the allegedly hellish conditions inside Belmarsh Prison which holds Julian Assange, how Coronavirus is leading to de-facto solitary confinement in prisons, the US’ mass incarceration system and how it has led to the United States having the largest prison population in the world, how corporations fuel the rise of private prisons in the US, the power of the prison lobby over politicians and much more!
