Former prisoner Rosca Onya has spoken to Sky’s Beth Rigby about how he was inspired by London Bridge attack victim Jack Merritt. Mr Merritt, who was killed in the attack, was a course convenor for Learning Together, a project which brought Cambridge University students together with inmates to study criminology.
