Should we colonise Criminals, to save space,here,and money?Are we in England to soft with them?

Question

The prisons,here,in the UK,are getting too full: We have got too soft with offenders, especially the foreign ones. I say...Send them and especially the foreigns out of this country and colonise them, like we did with the ones we sent to Australia! Who knows...they might in time build a country,like Australia!! Failing that:I say that any foreign ones imprisoned over here, that the country they came from should be charged for housing them. Maybe that country's government will then do something with them.Like stop them from leaving that country in the first place. This would solve an awful lot of problems,...especially for the tax-payer over here.!!
Comments please!! What say you to my suggestion?!

Answer 1

No other country would have them!
Force them to serve their time in the army, in Iraq or Afghanistan!

Answer 2

Just read in the paper today 11,000 prisoners in britian are foriegn that is 1 in every 8.It costs £330 million a year to keep them.In some prisons the Brits are in a minority.Around 1/5 of foriegn prisoners are Jamacian why can't they be sent back to serve their sentences,we have no problem with their country many Brits go there on holiday.Four Algerians asked to be sent home ,now Amnesty Internation is worried about 2 of them.What has that got to do with us?

Answer 3

It's a bit too late for colonisation, all of the world is habituated now. But if they are immigrants and found guilty of a crime, then we should stop ***** footing around and repatriated them without delay, should they have a family here then the whole family should be expelled from the country. This might well be a deterrent for them, not to commit crimes. Hard but this country does not need the expense of keeping people like these.
Judging by crime watch, most of the video clips of crimes being carried out, it appears that most of them are not white.

Answer 4

I'm with The Oak.And (S)He's spot on about your lack of intellect.Imagine,considering the repatriation treaties that many countries have throughout the world regarding foreign nationals in their prisons,the U.K. deciding that if it sentenced a foreign national to prison,(s)he would be sent off to a colony.This statement,and others such as the one that implied how other countries should find ways to prevent their citizens from going abroad for fear of comitting a crime,show just how out of touch with reality you are.Your arguments smack of nothing but illogical racism and in no way attempt to deal with the issue that you first brought up i.e. overcrowding in prisons.You're a half-wit.

Answer 5

Surely the question should be why are there so many criminals?
It also may be worth looking at the people inside and why.
Many are poor and have been demonised by the state. There is something dramatically wrong in a society that has so many criminals
I reckon possibly as many as 50% have mental problems caused by the state.
I was a bailiff for a while and the state are taking the piss out of the poor.

Answer 6

Foreign criminals should definitely be deported, the sooner the better. They are a drag on your economy. I think the whole concept of prison should be overhauled. If you are feeding/sheltering these people then they should be working say 14-15 hrs per day to cover the costs of their incarceration. How many criminals would feel up for a prison riot after working 100hrs per week? Optimize the labour to suit the environment and have everyone imprisoned work to produce consumer products for example. Preferably not edible consumer goods!!!

Answer 7

If they are not British born then they should be sent back tattooed to the country of their birth and barred from Britain for life, never mind keeping them in prison here.

Answer 8

I'm agree with you (foreign criminals should be deported to their countries). I'm from Spain, and here we have a lot of problems with criminals, vandals, thieves...and this problem is increased if these people are foreign, they accuse to us of racists!
I think that if they come to work and to make a normal life, they must of being welcome; but some people come to rob and kill and I think last ones would have to remain in it's countries.

Sorry if my english isn't good.
Greetings!

Answer 9

convinced. i ought to cite limitless examples interior my personal relatives and circle of acquaintances and neighbours of the police no longer taking any action adverse to risky those who had dedicated violent attacks on various of spurious pretexts (which consists of the actual incontrovertible actuality that they were shortly going to close the police station for the nighttime and move all agency to the station down the line!) some thing for an elementary life and to stay away from conflict! i imagine that we are all painfully conscious of this actuality. Civil servants intently cushion domicile Secretaries from understanding the actuality and data are engineered to illustrate a good song record for the police. in the period in-between, individuals of the customary public grow to be increasingly more desirable sceptical.

Answer 10

ok, here i go, might get thumbs down from this.
my views on people who are doing time for murder, and child abuse should not be given the right to live, if you take someones life you deserve to die.i put myself in this situatioun- if somebody killed a member of my family i would stop at nothing,put them in a corner with me and i probably would beat the living s hit out of them.if they take a life without thiking then they are not human. sorry protective husband and father.
