If I was Labour. I'd make a lot of prisonable/custodial offences a fineable offence instead.
it'll help with the overcrowding situation, and it will help raise a lot of cash.
the only problem is though. if you can't afford to pay a fine, and you know all that will happen is that you will get fined. you'll be more likely not to give a stuff about the offence and any consequences that may have put you off it in the first place.
