More than 9,000 domestic abusers are set to walk Britain's streets within three years under Labour's early prison release scheme.
It follows the Prime Minister green-lighting controversial plans to release some of the worst criminals from prison early, excluding rapists and the most serious sex offenders.
But shadow justice secretary Nick Timothy last night branded it 'disgraceful' that domestic abusers are eligible for early release, even with such measures in place.
And Reform UK's equality spokesman Suella Braverman accused Labour of 'throwing thousands of traumatised victims to the wolves' by granting early release to violent abusers.
The family of PC Harper learned this week that two of his killers remain eligible for early release after the review.
