A Stoke-on-Trent bodybuilder and former Mr Universe contestant has been jailed for 12 months for falsely claiming disability benefits.

Malcolm Sherratt, 64, of Arbourfield Drive, said he had a bad back but was secretly filmed by Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) investigators working out in a Hanley gym.

The DWP says for eight years he claimed more than £46,000 in benefits, telling authorities he needed help cooking, getting dressed, washing and going to the toilet and that he sometimes needed a wheelchair or sticks.

But it says records showed he worked out twice a day and officials filmed him lifting weights.

At Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court, Sherratt was jailed for 12 months after admitting two counts of false representation and three counts of making a dishonest representation.

A UKIP leadership hopeful and West Midlands MEP is calling for hardline prison reform - and wants inmates to pay £40,000 a year for their stay.

Bill Etheridge is calling for a string of changes, although he admitted to BBC WM his proposal would only work if convicts had assets.

He has also admitted he has never been inside a jail.

Jails "would probably work for people like him," he said, despite comments last week that prisons should be about "punishment rather than rehabilitation".
