Why the hell do we worry about prisonors "Human Rights" ??? If it has been proved that you have commited a crime and violated somebody elses human rights, your own should be forfiet.
Lock them up in the dirtiest scummiest place known to man and throw away the key. If the conditions are bad enough we might get rid of a few due to disease which will help the prison overcrowding problem we have right now as well

With questions being asked in Parliament, a demand that the full memo be released to the public, and Reuters and the BBC running the story. Must be false, then...

"Eastern European immigrants carry out tenth of crime"
Figures published yesterday by Westminster City Council - which is in the frontline of coping with hundreds of thousands of people arriving by coach from eastern Europe each year - showed that in one police division a tenth of arrests in the year to June 2006 - 400 out of 4,000 - involved "A8 Nationals" from the eight most recent EU accession states, with figures doubling year-on-year.
The report warns that "social unrest and anti-social behaviour has massively increased in the Victoria area and crimes, particularly shop-lifting, have increased."
A8 immigrants are "over-represented" in arrests for shoplifting, drunkenness, prostitution and burglary.
The true figures could be far higher, the report claims, as some larger stores "no longer call the police to A8 shoplifters", preferring to use their own security guards to keep known offenders out.
Council chiefs say half of all rough sleepers in central London are also A8 nationals - mostly Polish men - whose dreams of a better life in the UK have turned sour, and who are at risk of drifting into crime, prostitution and drug abuse.
With homeless charities "at breaking point", the council is urging ministers to continue special funding used to help destitute immigrants return home.Leave a comment:

In Russian prisons they sleep on beds in shifts, ie 3 people per "bed".
The main human right they have there is that of having to remain silent.Leave a comment:

Here's one for Mcquiggd
Hey mcquiggd, are you still reading that tulipe newspaper? I thought that rubbish was good only for tits...
Unfortunately, the preceeeding article was about a leaked Police report that 80-85% of cashpoint related crime in the UK is committed by Romanians. And that there are currently only around 50,000 of them in the country. But, in two months time....
Something tells me we will need more prisons in El Dorado.

Oh dear : Waiting lists for prisoners....
Newsnight Scotland is just discussing the latest proposed solution to prison overcrowding by the Inspector of Prisons north of the border - prisoners in certain categories should be put on 'waiting lists', whereby they are not immediately jailed, but wait until there is a suitable prison cell free. It was'nt mentioned if they could claim compensation if made to wait for too long...
Previous suggestions from this same chap have included only being jailed at weekends or overnight.
Why not go the whole hog and have prisoner 'timeshares'..? When not comitting petty theft, a convict could sleep over at the prison, but when 'on a job', someone else could make use of the facilities...
An efficient use of available resources - or - another cynical opportunity to manipulate figures...?
