How many prisons could they have built with the 12.5 Billion wasted on that VAT cut!!

From google search: http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisf...nsandprobation

"In the UK it is estimated that each new prison place costs £119,000 and that the annual average cost for each prisoner exceeds £40,000."

So I reckon to build a prison and provide funding 50 years of use, with 12.5 billion, we could of provided one or more prisons to house a total of 5,700 inmates.

So once youve banged up the first 5,700 drug addled idiots, what next?

Hahaha. Payphones are ever so slightly different to mobile phones. They really should not be allowed to use mobile phones at all IMO !! Prisons should be a punishment but that seems to have been forgotten under Labour. Tough on crime, tough on the causes of crime !!

Perhaps it's cheaper to let low security prisoners use their own mobile than to install payphones, which aren't cheap these days.

(was it tomazapan?)

Is that a mix of temazepam and tomato ketchup?


You are devious...

That's right, but prisoners had access to payphones. Now they might have mobile phones, although I wouldn't say that's a good idea for serious criminals.

I somehow don't think mobile phones were in widespread usage prior to 1997. Some perhaps, but certainly not many.

I don't think conjugal visits are allowed in British prisons. And of course prisoners had TVs and access to phones during the conservative government too.

Beauty is in the eye of the beerholder.

They must have been pretty paralytic though.

Well, she will be drinking from the furry cup for the next few years

[Mich the Tester]

As an aside, how did 5 different men get drunk enough to do her in the first place?

How many prisons could they have built with the 12.5 Billion wasted on that VAT cut!! I firmly believe that tougher sentences would actually reduce the prison population, so public spending may not be necessary. Labour policy requires more prisons because of their mollycoddling of prisoners with TVs, mobile phones, conjugal rights etc.

until she breeds some new ones.

I would hope she won't be allowed to keep them if she does,

As another aside, what really upsets me about this is that if it wasn't for the ludricous kidnap plot poor Shannon and others would have carried on been abused.

So you're in favour of increasing public spending now? Make your mind up.

She'll have naff all income as the kids won't be given back to her.

[Gibbon]

Actually I think she should get less, she will be relatively secure in prison and settle into some sort of routine.

Her problems will come when she is let out, no one will touch her with a barge pole or the wrong end of a spongia. She will have to live miles away from Dewsbury pretending she's someone else for the rest of her life.

[EternalOptimist]

Through their own choice, yes

But a mother forcing them (was it tomazapan?) on a kid to keep her quiet, and locking/chaining her up for weeks...and that's what we KNOW of....ah honestly, I'm normally a bit of a lefty liberal whern it comes to punishment and stuff, but I would personally beat that bitch senseless and not bat an eye.
I'm actually really angry now just thinking about it.

Be fair, if drugging birds and chaining them to a bed were to be outlawed the jails would be bursting. I , for one, would be looking at a 20 stretch

He's in favour of low interest rates, continuation of a housing bubble
Spending cuts, but building more prisons and taxpayer borrowing to failed businesses hurt by the collapse of the housing bubble

...and locking up Robert Peston.

I think he's been exposed as a NuLabour crony. Maybe we should call him CyberGordon instead?
