Sleaze, Sentences, and a Dog Named Rupert
This chapter explores the murky connections between politics and consultancy firms, scrutinizing contract awards and campaign donations to major players like PricewaterhouseCoopers and Ernst & Young. It juxtaposes serious discussions about the overcrowding of UK prisons and the absurdity of some legal sentences with lighthearted banter surrounding a pet dog, Rupert. The conversation critiques media sensationalism while humorously addressing the implications of current prison policies and case backlogs.
