Gordon Brown scuppers prisoners' 37.5% pay rise

"A controversial plan to increase pay rates for prisoners while ministers are being deluged by the row over the 10p tax rate abolition was scrapped yesterday on the direct orders of Gordon Brown.

The Prime Minister intervened to overrule the Prison Service Management Board after learning that it had given the go-ahead to increasing the minimum pay rate for an employed offender from £4 a week to £5.50".

Prisoners should earn pay rise, says Brown

"Gordon Brown confirmed today that he personally intervened to block plans to increase prisoners' pay rates by 37.5 per cent - their first rise for more than a decade".
