Imagine sitting in a cell holding a prison guard hostage, then a load of tooled up guys wearing gas masks break in through the ceiling…….I don’t care how hard a man you are, you’re not gonna resist 😂😂
I didnt realise how small peterhead was. It only had one big hall. But seemingly the screws were monsters in that jail. Guys in B hall were always getting doings and they were locked up 23 hours a day. Thats what part of the riots were about. Men being booted and kicked till they went black and blue. Thats why they screws got tortured.
I done my last sentence in d hall and apart from the officers not much had changed. It's a interesting place definitely somewhere id love to see now that its open to the public
After 1957 a lot of energy previously exhausted through 'hard labour' was obviously available. Unfortunately rehabilitation for inmates was inadequate. The event promoted Thatcher's lron Lady image, post Falklands conflict and Iranian embassy siege the SAS were obviously her solution of choice.

It's very simple. You don't like prison don't break the law. Stop hurting innocent people when crying when it gets a little rough for you. When you riot you should have to live in your filth until you clean it up. This crap where you destroy a prison then the tax payers have to pay to have it fixed is stupid. You did it you fix it. As for sentences you should have to stay in prison until the people you hurt no longer hurt. You take a life you stay in prison until the family of the person no longer misses them.
I always worry when Tories are in power though, as they make anybody suffer not any use at being a slave for the upper classes, bankers who want our economy closely linked with New York banks encouraging greed and debt and their donors who live in tax havens. They start to take over the media, getting ordinary people to bully those who need help to survive, while telling us to cheer on some minor royal who lives in a free mansion and has free everything else. Then they start to make policies that drive the sick, vulnerable and poor to desperation and food banks. They take away hope from communities, making millions unemployed, telling them it's their fault they're unemployed, and if their children want to go to university they make our universities the most expensive in Europe. While making people think they will suddenly as if by magic start caring about British people if we leave the EU.
so if you kill someone with no family you get to go free? or what if your family don't like you and wouldn't miss you? what if the people who broke the prison don't have the skills to fix it? like if they smash the windows but none of them are glaziers? what if someone was in for a week remand and was there when the riot happened, should they stay in for 50 years if they don't know how to fix the prison? a lot of holes in your plans to reform the criminal justice system
We need houses so bring back Manuel labour teach them to build houses say they build 10 houses sell 5 to pay for more land and costs eg mortar bricks teacher inspector and give them a qualification in building. So when they leave they leave with something basically make them hate going to prison because of the forced work why also making them pay back to society for doing damage to it productive punishment/rehabilitation (main problem with this is the human right complainers) but they lost there rite as a human until all is payed back and sorry for the crime also eye for a eye in law is wrong it should be eye for two eyes double the consequence of the action
Absolutely terrible what they done to jacky Stuart... I am an ex con and the prison officers at the new PhD jail are majority good guys... Very helpful and when you leave prison now the prison officers help you get work and even help you furnish your home...
Jackie Stewart's nickname was "Hess" as in Rudolph Hess the nazi. He was the biggest dog in the place, your an ex con, whoopy fuckin doo, you know fuck all stupid, the reasons prisons have a more liberal regime is because of guys protesting, rioting etc As the other guy says, heid doon hector

@@DannyCaffekey Defo, screws in Greenock were all local when i was there 30yrs ago so no hassle no beasting no liberties taken by the staff actually helped you and treated you like a human being. In Bar though late 80s early 90s most of the staff in A hall thought they were on a different planet as few cons inside knew them or where they lived etc. heard more than a few screams after dub up all over A hall and in the wendy right below where I was. Usually in Bar the younger they were the worse they were. even saughton and the ranch were nowhere near as bad for staff in my opinion.

Peterhead at the time of the last riot was ran the same way as it was when it was built. Not all convicts were A cats, most cons were sent up there to keep a full compliment.
If you want to know the truth about peterhead jail and the way the men were treated, even innocent men. Read TC Campbells book 'Trial Indictment By Fire'
A riot and siege, that involves sitting outside, high up on a roof at night, during freezing cold weather. How well thought out? Response to video only.
The Prison Service wasn't allowed to use CS gas or Stun grenades at the time. The SAS/Army could which is why the siege ended so quickly. If the Scottish Prison service had trained personnel and access to the equipment used, their staff could have dealt with the situation.
Suggests at about 1:45 that Peterhead was Scotland's first prison, would half everyone convicted I. Scotland, and before that all prisoners were sent to England. That's obviously complete nonsense. It was only the first convict prison (i.e. prison for hard labour) in Scotland and only housed those sentenced to hard labour as a specific punishment. Clearly there were plenty of other jails in Scotland.
CAT A or life prisoners should be locked up for 23 hours in darkness and 1 hour of daylight. Failure to comply then flogged once a month for ten lashes front and back
