(Picture: Steve Parsons/PA Archive)Child inmates in London are being taught new types of music to wean them off violent and misogynistic drill songs, the prison watchdog revealed on Tuesday.
A report on Feltham, a young offender institution, by the chief inspector of prisons says that teaching the detainees “wider genres” is intended to “broaden their horizons” beyond a “narrow interest in music associated with violence and misogyny, such as drill”.
