disgraceful!!!
@
Castration and lobotomy or the full time of their sentence with each sentence added up and the total needs to be served with no chance of release. In terms of overcrowding, release peaceful protesters
@
These panelists are the worst of people. Think of the world's lonely and under-loved people, not them!
@
Funny that they turned an early release scheme issue into a 'men = bad' segment with all the crocodile tears that come with it

Sign of a extremely corrupt state that the innocent get jailed and the guilty get released, poor victims this time let down by the system
@
Absolutely disgusting.
@

@
HOW DARE THEY SEND PREDATORS BACK OUT ONTO OUR STREETS FOR MORE WOMAN AND GIRLS TO BE SEXUALLY ABUSED AND RAPED. WE LIVE LIFE SENTENCES AND THEY WALK FREE. NO JUSTICE!
@
4:33 some people are falsely accused for personal gain.

This is wrong. I feel it for the victims 🙏🏾🙏🏾

If the prisons are full put them on that waste of money boat they bought for asylum seekers as a gimmick

does anything we priviatise work properly? why do we pay so much in taxes to let government pay private companies like G4S to run services badly?

Repeat offenders would be “nicked” or scarred so people knew they were a “wrongun” in medieval times , now with facial recognition this will be used by big business as the government has failed to create a law abiding civilisation due to political correctness and unchecked immigration with criminals making a direct route to the UK , often with free train rides through France to lose their most persistent criminals .

*England & Wales release plans
@
Why tell them it'll just rile them up.
@
If GB can’t afford to punish sexual abusers properly,just have them spaded
@
the government is fixing the prison crisis by allowing some prisoners to reoffend?
@
Sentences should not run concurrently, they should be sequential

Every sentence served, no parole no early release

You get 20 years, you serve 20 years

I stand with victims not perpetrators
@
The 1% has all the money and we are so broke we have to let perpetrators out on the street this is disgraceful this is disgusting and s*** has to change
