Since 1997 this government promulgated the highest number of laws, employed the highest number of police, put the highest number of people in prison, yet the number of serious crime increases on daily basis. I just can't find any sensible answer to this ironic state of affairs in the country. Is it because Britain has the highest number of criminals in Europe or the laws do not work or the prison system is only a commercial venture with a revolving door or this government is only a toothless bulldog trying to look tough on crime. Perhaps it is because English law is like a cobweb catching little flies while the dangerous wasps get free, in other words, the wrong people are sent to prison while the real criminals run the street.
