Nothing this government does surprises me. They need a proper opposition party.

Why don't they just build a big hole and throw all of the prisoners in there?

Why don't they just build a big hole and throw all of New Labour in there?

Couldn't agree more...

What about those tens of thousands of squaddies' families who are in married quarters? How about evicting them too?

It's a dead easy solution. I'm sure all those forces wives in Borden and Aldershot won't mind one little bit - helping do their bit for the good of the country.






Please, please, please someone tell me this is a spoof.

How many of these thugs in UK prisons do not hold a UK passport?

Simply stick these people on planes and send them back to their country of origin. Send them 1st class it will still work out cheaper than keeping them here.

Thus creating more room in prison for the poor people who can't pay for their TV license.

You're not allowed to do that - it may infringe the criminals Human Rights, and if they happened to have children with a British Citizen then it will infringe the children's Human Rights.

Least Cherie Blair will get more taxpayers money fighting the case.

Or their council taxes

Aldershot and Bordon arguably have been scaled down so much you could say they ready for closure and ideal to use all those empty barracks for prison service but now reserved for Team GB Olympic training camp.

Having experienced Married Quarters as a child can say they are perfect for criminals - made me a good one.

About time too. Why are these overpaid layabout government workers living in subsidised homes while poor contractors can't even afford a place in central London with a decent-sized indoor pool?
