Judges in Britain for many years have been unable to punish criminals with longer jail sentences simply because there is no room for them in Prisons !
This is well known, not only to everyone in the legal profession but also to criminals and to the suffering public. Everyone is astounded when newspaper articles highlight that reoffending criminals were only recently released ! Sentences must also serve to deter criminals from reoffending !
The construction of new state of the arts Prisons requires a long term plan. The new Prime Minister Boris Johnson now has a comfortable majority to govern and therefore has the perfect conditions to introduce such a long term prison plan. This would oblige future governments to complete any work in progress and also to consider other future Prison projects.
