Fury Erupts as Keir Starmer Slammed Over ‘Two-Tier Justice’ Plan — Labour’s Desperate Plea Rejected by Council!”
There’s growing anger over new sentencing rules that could mean people from different backgrounds get treated differently in court. The government asked the Sentencing Council to scrap these “two-tier” guidelines, but the Council refused, saying judges might need special information about some minority groups.
Prime Minister Keir Starmer says he’s “disappointed” by this decision and is thinking about what to do next. The controversy comes as a security guard called “Big Marcus” told GB News that the justice system has “gone crazy” under Labour. He argued everyone should be treated the same in court, no matter their race or background.
The debate got hotter when people learned about a prisoner who killed someone just hours after being let out early under Labour’s prison release scheme. Liam Matthews, 26, was freed from jail in September and stabbed Lewis Bell to death the same day. Marcus blasted the early release policy, saying “if you do the crime, you should do the time” and that letting violent criminals out early puts lives at risk.
GB News presenter Adam Brooks went further, saying this death is “blood on the hands of Keir Starmer.” He compared it to people being jailed for offensive online posts while violent offenders walk free early.
The Ministry of Justice defended the early release program, saying they had no choice because prisons were about to collapse when they took over. They claim dangerous violent criminals weren’t supposed to be let out under the rules. But with another killing linked to the policy, public trust in the justice system is fading fast.
These two issues – the sentencing guidelines and early prison releases – have left many people feeling the system isn’t fair or safe anymore. Critics say the government needs to take stronger action to protect the public and ensure equal treatment for all in court. Supporters argue the measures were necessary to deal with problems left by the previous government.
