Criminal justice minister Damian Green has seen for himself the run-down state of Gloucester's courts today.

He visited the city on the invitation of Gloucester MP Richard Graham, who has been pushing for an all-new justice centre to replace the dilapidated magistrates and crown court buildings.

    “This story could have been written over 20 years ago. Too many times have we heard something might happen to what can only be described as a critical situation. Quite frankly, I don't expect anything to happen for at least the next five to ten years based on what has been going on. Shame on politicians for letting ths go on for so long”
