‘Culture of acceptance’ over drugs in jails

Western Daily Press

|

October 31, 2025

THERE is a dangerous culture of acceptance that must be broken over the “endemic levels” of drugs in prisons that endanger lives, a committee of MPs has warned. Some 39% of prisoners find it easy to get drugs - and the use and trade of drugs are crippling the HM Prisons and Probation Service's ability to keep control and rehabilitate offenders, according to the Justice Committee.

A report to be published today warns of the “unacceptable” human cost from the crisis, with 16% of 833 deaths investigated between December 2022 to 2024 being determined as drugs-related by the Prisons Ombudsman.
