The Chancellor has just announced a big increase for the police force and £4 BILLION to be spent on increasing prison “places” by 80,000 !
We’re in safe hands with this Conservative government.
But we aren’t. Think about it Bill, 80,000 more prison places means we are going to have 80,000 more crims! That means the government is predicting we’re all going to be much less safe in future.
The government should be addressing the causes, not the consequences of criminality, and aiming to get the prison population down, not up.
