The Paper quotes senior lawyers it says want the assessment of prisoner danger levels to be Taken Out of judges' hands.
Mr Johnson's Proposals - which it describes as "ultra Hardline " - came as arguments about the blame for Friday's attack thrust the issue "into the centre of the election battle".
The Paper 's editorial calls the Prime Minister 's tougher sentencing Proposals a "cynical bid to exploit tragedy for political gain" and argues they are a "ploy to deflect from the sweeping cuts and botched reforms" of The Police , prison and probation services.
. Its opinion piece says sentencing has been "too lenient for too long" and the release of an extremist who went on to kill reflects a "catastrophic institutional failure".
