RESIDENTS living in the shadow of THREE notorious UK prisons say they hear screams every night and fear a mass breakout. HMP Belmarsh houses killer cop Wayne Couzens , Manchester Arena plotter Hashem Abedi and Lee Rigby machete terrorist Michael Adebolajo . The Category A slammer shares a vast 411,000sq metre plot with Cat B HMP Thameside and Young Offenders Institute HMP ISIS on the southern banks of the Thames estuary.

Flirty female prison guards are having affairs with inmates at record rates. Jail employees have been sacked or even thrown behind bars themselves after being caught bonking in the cells or smuggling in contraband for their beaus behind bars. Former prison officer Neil "Sam" Samworth, who worked at Manchester's infamous Strangeways for 11 years, told The Sun the problem of lags becoming romantically or sexually involved with prison staff is now "completely out of control". But he added it's not surprising this has happened, as he claims fresh-faced recruits are hired at major prisons straight out of college. "They've got the youngest workforce ever. They are literally seeing kids on wings straight out of college aged 18, 19, 20," he explained. "You've got a very inexperienced, young workforce and you've got a lot of lads locked up who have something that is really dangerous – it's called charm." At Britain's biggest prison, HMP Berwyn , 18 guards were fired or quit … [Read more...] about Flirty female prison guards busted bonking in cells and smuggling in knickers

David Thaddeus Alba —CARLA GOMEZ President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. has accepted the resignation of embattled Sugar Regulatory Administration (SRA) chief David Thaddeus Alba after holding the post for only seven months, Malacañang announced on Friday. Alba’s resignation followed the controversial importation of 440,000 metric tons of sugar in February, which was allegedly allocated to three “handpicked” importers. Opposition Sen. Risa Hontiveros sought a Senate inquiry into the importation, saying that the three importers involved in what she described as a “government-sponsored” sugar smuggling must be blacklisted if irregularities were found. In a statement, the Presidential Communications Office (PCO) said Alba met with Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin on Wednesday informing him of his resignation, citing health reasons. “ES Bersamin persuaded him not to, but he reasoned his worsening health condition,” the PCO said. The PCO said that according to the … [Read more...] about Marcos accepts resignation of SRA chief Alba

Jessica Nabongo made history when she became the first black woman to travel to every country in the world (although that title is in slight contention thanks to fellow adventurer Woni Spotts' claim ). The Ugandan American arrived in the Seychelles flanked by dozens of her friends and family to make it all 195 United Nations recognised countries visited in 2019. Four years on and the Detroit native has turned her talents to hosting season one of WhatsApp’s Crossing Cultures, a series that explores how diasporic communities around the world create a home away from home while maintaining connections to their culture. In the show she goes off the beaten track in a number of countries in a bid to find less often visited communities and explore how they've built a new home.
