Telegraph: Britain is soft on crime and soft on the causes of crime
CEP Senior Advisor Ian Acheson: "‘House arrest’ may be a term more usually associated with tinpot dictatorships but it has in fact been a key feature of our crime control apparatus for years. Home Detention Curfew (HSC) was brought in under Labour in 1999. Now the Justice Secretary wants to extend that Blairite concept which covered only the last six months of an offender’s custody to the whole sentence. Will this make a difference in solving Britain’s omnishambles prison crisis?"

Enduring Music: Compositions from the Holocaust
Marking International Holocaust Remembrance Day, the Counter Extremism Project's ARCHER at House 88 presents a landmark concert of music composed in ghettos and death camps, performed in defiance of resurgent antisemitism. Curated with world renowned composer, conductor, and musicologist Francesco Lotoro, the program restores classical, folk, and popular works, many written on scraps of paper or recalled from memory, to public consciousness. Featuring world and U.S. premieres from Lotoro's archive, this concert honors a repertoire that endured against unimaginable evil.
