The Establishment bleats the fallacy that, somehow, we cannot build more jails, or that if we do crime will rise - jailing more people is a sign of more crime, apparently.<br /><br />I believe the opposite - jailing recidivist and violent criminals will reduce crime, for the obvious reason that they won't be free to terrorise their fellow citizens. Couple this with REAL local democratic pressure on police forces to arrest said criminals, instead of sucking up to gay rights or islamist marches, and you have at least part of a solution.<br /><br />Also reform the Probation Service so that it serves the public instead of criminals - difficult, as it is stuffed full of leftist loonies. Any ideas on that?<br /><br />Much of the Home Office has to go, too. We need honesty in how crime is recorded and reported. Pro-criminal lobby organistations should have their charitable status abolished, and their spokesmen laughed at in the streets.Robnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-3949031195251009702009-09-08T08:54:45.398+01:002009-09-08T08:54:45.398+01:00GREAT!
