This is Mark's 20th prison move so far. As Wakefield is primarily a high security prison for sex offenders it is certainly one of the worst places they could send Mark and clearly a punishment move. HMP Wakefield runs a very 'tight' regime and it s dungeon-like Segregation Block is notorious for it s strict rules. At the time of writing, Mark s living conditions have not improved at all and he is still being denied access to his property. If you d like to send Mark a message of support, for the moment it would be best to enclose only one stamped envelope with your letter and a few pieces of paper so he can write back.
Publications have to be sent in directly from the publisher.
Everything else, such as stationary, has to be bought from within the prison. Anything else sent to Mark will be withheld. Unless we increase the pressure on the authorities NOW, we expect things to get even worse for Mark. It is clear that this latest move to Wakefield is a cynical attempt to set him up for further punishment. We urge supporters everywhere to flood the officials below with phone calls, faxes and letters as a matter of urgency.
