I doubt you'll find a single person in the UK who will shed even a single tear for this monster.

Not for him, no. But it's deeply concerning that this should have been allowed to happen. How many attacks never make the news, because the victim is not so infamous? And might some of these have been wrongly convicted?

Agree. Objectively speaking, this is a massive failure by the prison service.

As detestable as the man was, prison staff had a duty of care over him. I suspect some will lose their jobs over this

General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
