No, it wasn't me that compared them to holiday camps. But my knowledge of them is definitely not based on what tthe press say. Whilst I don't see them as "Butlins with bars", I also don't see them as quite the punitive measures that they really ought to be. As for the exact details of my knowledge of prisons, I would prefer to keep that under wraps!
