Well the prisoner Release scheme went well. :erm:

Quote:

... a former inmate allegedly sexually assaulted a woman on the same day he was freed.

Amari Ward, 31, was released as part of the policy, which aims to ease prison overcrowding, on Tuesday.
Who would have guessed it, released criminals commiting crimes almost straight away. :dozey:

They didn't have much choice with the prisoners. Prisons were overcrowded and weeks from being full.

They do need to reform the justice system and/or announce more prisons are to be built though. There is no point decrying the state of how prisons were left if you're not going to do anything about it long-term.

There is a story in The Times today actually about how bad things are: https://www.thetimes.com/article/edd...9898a43979374d

How about not putting people in prison for posting stuff on social media, for a start.

I don't think they should either (unless it's a direct incitement/threat) but that's a negligible amount of those sentenced to prison. We do not have enough space or need to add many more crimes that don't result in a custodial sentence.

The article above was before the riots for example and it was close to the point where the police were close to the point where they could no longer arrest people as they would have nowhere to put them.

Two Tier Keir is going to solve the NHS overload by killing as many pensioners as possible.

The silence here from those that wanted change is deafening.:rolleyes:

The hypocrisy of posters who supported the Tories, but ignore the fact that they had the same pledge in the 2017 manifesto and said nothing at the time, is stunning…

Sir Keir Starmer is facing an investigation over a possible breach of parliamentary rules after failing to declare that some of his wife's high-end clothes were bought for her by his biggest personal donor, Lord Alli.

The hypocrisy of the Labour supporters that carried out a report , that thousands of pensioners would die from this policy, but still implemented it……….is stunning.

The Tories didn’t do it.

Who really expected there to be any change in the way we are governed?

Also it was so predictable that the last government wouldn't even let Labour get their feet under the table before accusing them of continuing with the same antics they have been up to in 14 years of being the people in charge.

Guilty is guilty no matter who is calling it out.
