Jail is often a soft option

Published: Tuesday May 20,2008 by Globetrottinggranny

So into jail with the yobs for them to be given all sorts of benefits and leisure activities. What a disgrace. If jail meant jail in the usual meaning of the word, yes they should all languish there until they have learnt their lesson. Unfortunately, there are too many human rights lawyers jumping on the band wagon for these dead beats and bleeding hearts who want to understand them that all they will learn is how to work the system even more. There is no hope whilst we have the human rights act for these people to hide behind and which allows the lawyers to make obscene sums of money. Bring back the birch!
