Tempers boil over on GB News as Dawn Neesom is forced to step in and restore order during a fiery on-air clash over the government's prisoner release scheme. The heated debate sees accusations fly as the panel argues over responsibility for the UK's prison capacity crisis, with emotions running high and demands for an apology dominating the discussion.

Former Attorney General Sir Michael Ellis delivers a scathing criticism of the government's decision to press ahead with the early prisoner release programme, describing the policy as "an absolute disgrace" and condemning it as a failure of leadership. He argues the scheme puts public confidence in the justice system at risk and insists ministers should be focusing on expanding prison capacity rather than releasing offenders early.

The debate reaches boiling point when former Labour adviser Danny Shaw challenges Sir Michael Ellis over the previous Conservative government's record on prison investment, claiming fewer than 500 additional prison places were created. The exchange quickly descends into repeated interruptions, with calls to "make an apology" as both sides trade blame over years of prison policy.
