Charles Bronson declares 'I'm coming home' ahead of public parole hearing
19.03.2022 - 07:39 / dailyrecord.co.uk
Charles Bronson has revealed his public parole hearing could take place as soon as June – declaring: “I’m coming home.”
Britain’s most notorious prisoner has high hopes for his historic hearing – the first ever to take place in public.
The 70-year-old hardman cannot wait to taste freedom again and does daily exercise to ensure he leaves jail as fit as when he first went in over 40 years ago.
In a phone call from jail, he said: “I’ve got my jam roll [parole] coming up. All my reports are excellent.
“It’s looking good, it really is. I’m closer now to getting out than I have been in 30-odd years.
"Up to now there’s not a date, but it’s looking like June, July.
“I’m the first man in the British Isles to have a public parole hearing. All these decades I’ve done.”
The bare-knuckle boxer, who has changed his name to Charles Salvador, was first jailed for seven years in 1974, aged 22, for armed robbery – but more time was added due to attacks on guards and fellow prisoners.
That stretch ended in 1987 but he was soon back in jail, and in total has spent over 40 years inside.
In 2014 the Spurs fan covered himself in Lurpak to attack 12 prison officers at Full Sutton jail, admitting he had “lost it” because Arsenal had won the FA Cup. It was a carbon copy of his assault on 12 Wakefield Prison officers in 2010.
He has also staged nine rooftop protests and held a reported 11 hostages. But his days as the country’s most violent prisoner are over and he now writes poetry and paints, donating works to raise money for charity.
He also sticks to a regime of runs, squats and press-ups.
He said: “I still smash my press-ups out. I’m 70 years old and I can still do 95 press-ups in 30 seconds.
"I don’t walk on the yard, I run – sit-ups,

Prince Charles is growing increasingly “desperate” to see Archie and Lilibet after Prince Harry announced further delays on a trip back to the UK this month, an expert has said. It’s been a while since the Prince of Wales has physically seen his grandson or even met his baby granddaughter after parents Prince Harry and Meghan Markle moved to the US in 2020. According to Royal editor Russel Myers, it looks like it could still be quite some time yet before Prince Charles gets to reunite with his grandchildren as son Harry has delayed a visit back to his home country with his family over fears of their safety.

Meghan Markle Podcast Coming to Spotify This Summer, After Ex-Royal Couple Resolves Concerns Over Streamer’s Handling of COVID Misinfo
Todd Spangler NY Digital EditorPrince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Archewell production company says it’s satisfied that Spotify is adequately addressing misinformation on its platform — and announced that a podcast featuring Markle will hit the audio-streaming platform this summer.The latest development comes after the erstwhile British royal couple in January said they were urging Spotify to make changes to address the “serious harms” presented by COVID misinformation on its platform. The couple’s statement did not call out Joe Rogan, but the popular podcaster — whose show is exclusively available on Spotify — set off a boycott instigated by Neil Young and joined by other musicians and talent, who were protesting COVID misinfo on “The Joe Rogan Experience.” According to a rep for Archewell Audio, the company has been encouraged by ongoing conversations with Spotify execs about implementing policies, practices and strategies to raise creator awareness, minimize the spread of misinformation and support transparency.As a result, Archewell Audio said, it is continuing production of “Meghan,” the Duchess of Sussex’s first podcast series, set to launch this summer.Harry and Meghan’s Archewell set a deal with Spotify in 2020 to produce exclusive podcasts that “build community through shared experience, narratives and values.” To date, it has released just one podcast — a holiday special in December 2020.
