A convicted armed kidnapper released early from jail shouted “big up Keir Starmer” as he posed on a new £150,000 Bentley.
Daniel Dowling-Brooks, 29, was freed seven weeks earlier than he had expected from a seven-year sentence for kidnap and grievous bodily harm, which he had been serving at HMP Swaleside on the Isle of Sheppey in Kent. He was amongst the first of more than 1,200 prisoners serving sentences of five years or more to be released on Tuesday morning under a scheme where they are freed just 40 per cent through their jail terms rather than halfway.
They are the second mass release under the emergency plan announced by ministers days after the general election, as men’s prisons in England and Wales almost ran out of spaces by the August bank holiday weekend.

The World Bank Somehow Lost Track of at Least $24 Billion

Agustin Carstens, the BIS general manager whose term ends in June, said on Saturday at an event of the Group of 30 in the US capital that “we cannot directly support any project for the BRICS because we cannot operate with countries that are subject to sanctions — I want to be very clear about that.”
