Thousands in England and Wales are in jail under the Imprisonment for Public Protection measure - a law which imprisoned people for an indefinite period and was abolished 10 years ago. Campaigners are urging they be re-sentenced. JaneDJourno reports.

Campaigners are now urging the government to re-sentence all the remaining IPP inmates with a response expected soon.
