Today marks the second wave of early releases under the Labour Government

GB News host Ellie Costello has expressed frustration over Labour's plans to continue with the early release of prisoners stating that it could cause a "cycle" of reoffending unless more prisons are built.

"What about building new prisons?

I mean, this is just a cycle that we're in unless more prisons are built."
