Fuckin' Eunuch"Just because the police have got a power doesn't mean they have to use it"
But PVA as someone whose apparently gone to one of the top 10 universities in the UK - something very few - if any other forum member - can boast then surely we would expect far more gravitas
We are mere mortals that wait for your in depth political analysis
Why do you keep us waiting?

An episode of Cum Dine With me with PVA and held @skybluetony176 place in Bedsit Land.
Cambridge and Hull?
Warwick and St Andrews then I'd guess?One local and one in a land far far away
Warwick and St Andrews then I'd guess?
Fair play, you hide it well
Hopefully not Oxford. Complete dump apparently.Cambridge and Hull?
He has a point. Prison’s are beyond full. The current backlog in court cases actually suits the government because if they caught up they’d be nowhere to put them. To put that in some sort of perspective at the end of last year the backlog for serious cases alone was 62,000. There aren’t 62,000 prison places available, current capacity is about 82,000. To put it in further perspective the government’s target to cut the backlog is by about 10,000 by 2025 leaving a backlog of 52000. By contrast they plan to expand prison places by just 4,000 in the same period in England and Wales which will actually give the UK the highest prison population ever if they reach their targets. That’s some legacy that the Tories will be leaving, the party of law and order my arse.John Major goes fully woke

There’s tons of prisoners that aren’t a danger to society, more likely to be a danger to themselves. Released with the correct care especially for addiction and mental health and the majority won’t reoffend. But there lies the next issue. Austerity made sure that those systems either aren’t in place anymore or are failing because they’re overloaded. So it suits the government to keep them in because it they do release them without that support they’ll either be recalled in which case there’s no point releasing them in the first place or if their license expires it won’t be long until they’re adding to the already massive backlog of court cases. We’re in such a mess.He’s absolutely right
he'd be stupid to say he would get rid of itThe prick seems to think the issue is the Tory bill hasn’t ‘had time to bed in’

Big C Conservatives can't see the nuance though.There’s tons of prisoners that aren’t a danger to society, more likely to be a danger to themselves.

Mental health tooDecriminalise certain drugs and related drug crimes and it would probably free half the places up
It’s time to have a proper look at legalising cannabis. It’s been done in enough countries now to be able to take an educated view. License the growing and selling of it and get tax revenue, control which cannabis is being grown etc etc. Makes perfect sense to me, it’s no more dangerous than alcohol, in fact it’s significantly safer.Decriminalise certain drugs and related drug crimes and it would probably free half the places up
He voted against the bill a few months ago, what's changed?he'd be stupid to say he would get rid of it
if he did what you wanted he'd walk into a tory trap daily
Mental health too
Less than £40k a year to lock them upSaw a graph from the US showing basically an inverse relationship between declining mental institution numbers and increasing prison numbers. Even if they can’t go out a more psychology focused approach would be best for a lot of offenders. Costs though.

Sorry was meaning mental health provisionPrison
Sorry was meaning mental health provision
Which just goes to show what a failure austerity is. A prison place is about £47k a year. We have people in prison because they were let down by mental health care. Every action has an opposite and equal reaction.Sorry was meaning mental health provision
