You get a nice class of villain at Ford

Article Abstract:

Ford open prison in Sussex, United Kingdom, houses non-violent criminals who are unlikely to re-offend. The three main defendants in the Guinness affair served their sentences at Ford. The prison's regime is very relaxed and while work is obligatory, prisoners have a choice of what they do, although they are not allowed to run a business. In spite of Ford's reputation as a prison for the middle-class white-collar criminal, its inmates still retain a stigma and have difficulty finding jobs after they leave.

Sex and power

Article Abstract:

Lord Beaverbrook, the founder of Express Newspapers who is currently the subject of a Channel 4 documentary, played an extremely important role in UK society. He entertained high class guests for more than 40 years, and had a great gift for enlivening any social gathering. He was able to wield enormous power over women, including society beauty the Honourable Mrs Jean Norton and writer Rebecca West, and his life was full of many public and private contradictions.
