"You can make predictions, and a year later people won't remember them." -  Daniel Kahneman

There may be endless articles about the likely outcome of the EU referendum but just how reliable are the opinions of Britain's political 'experts'? Our first piece today looks at recent studies of the predictions of pundits and suggests that if the last few elections are anything to go by, the overwhelming consensus that Britain will remain in the EU could be badly wrong.

You may remember our article from a month ago about the treatment of a whistleblower who was critical of the prison monitoring system. Well, she has just been suspended. Our next piece suggests that this is the latest example of the lengths the prison system will go to avoid scrutiny.
