He is also a popular writer and commentator on topical legal issues for national publications, TV and radio. Presenter of the BBC television series, "Crime - Are We Tough Enough?", he is the author of "Justice on Trial”, a book which challenges everything we think we know about crime and punishment in Britain and presents radical solutions for this broken and failing justice system.
