It hasn't happened yet despite his work with prisons and ex prisoners

Interesting appointment by Starmer not sure of Tim's political persuasion but his brother Edward is an ex Conservative MP

It is an interesting appointment. And gives hope that someone may at last have a bit more vision for the penal system than, bang them up, treat them like animals and then fingers crossed they’re magically rehabilitated when they get out.

I think about 1 in 10 of Timpson’s employees are ex cons.
 
Not sure who Lisa Nandy grew up supporting (if anyone) but she attended Parrs Wood HS as did Lucy Powell. I’m sure that, having been MP for Wigan for some time, any football allegiance is now understandably with them. Saw a comment on Twitter that there’s more members of the current cabinet who went to Parrs Wood than went to Eton.

Used to work in the industries at Garth prison about 10year ago, Timpson were 1 of them.
 
When the missus worked in "employment bureaux" Powell was a constant nightmare always sending MP letters, haranguing staff and being an all round pain. She doesn't speak highly of Luce.

I think Timpson are a very positive example. They don't just hand chances to anyone.
But there is a complete disconnect between parliament and that world that most people live in.
Drugs is the real global issue. Legalise the lot, same with prostitution, concentrate on the human traffickers, muggers and thugs.
As an island we are best placed to deal with legalising drugs, taxing it removing that crime link between drug takes and drug sellers. They talk about gateway drugs, the number one gateway drug is and has always been booze.
The truth is we have no idea how many children and people in the UK are living as slaves. They estimate that around 112,853 children go missing each year. Surely finding those kinds safe is more of a priority.

I can’t say for certain that Timpson is a blue but I can confirm that City key rings are the only football club key rings available in the Timpsons by St James’ Park Tube station.

He's a blue. This is his dad's swimming pool in his house
