As an ex con, I can speak from experience. Prison is far to soft and so therefore not a deterent. Cells have Curtains, Carpets, TV with Sky, Playstation, Kettle. Access to Microwave & Grill during assocciation time. Prisoners can wear their own clothing. Can spend £30 per week on shopping. I say prison should be a room, with a bed, a table and chair, and thats your lot. No TV, No Radio, No Shopping, Nothing but 23 hours a day bang up. 1 hours excersize, so long as the weather is good. The food should be basic, all priviedges withdrawn and lets get it back to basics. If its made a long horrible drawn out affair, then it becomes a deterent, a place people don't want to go to. Our Prison system needs a total overall, as they are all rife with drugs, bent officers & large amounts of violence that gets brushed under the carpet, so as not to affect that prisons statistics for the end of year report. What do you think our prisons should be like?
