Re: Community Orders
I’m a firm believer in “let the punishment fit the crime” but sadly this government prefers to waste money on illegal wars etc. rather than building and adequately staffing new prisons – and we need at least 5,000 new places. All without any social amenities until the prisoners EARN them.
But its not going to happen, at least not with this government and I doubt if the next one will address the issue as most of the public want.
The reality of the situation is that Community Orders are issued but currently abused. The object of this topic is how to prevent that abuse and make the punishment meaningful.
