GOVERNMENT STEALS DAME'S PRISON IDEA!

 Five years ago the Hornets Nest published the idea of using foreign prisons to house violent prisons. 

At today's party conference, the Justice Minister was reported to have stolen the Dame's innovative idea.

The Times reports thus...

"Estonia is among countries that could house British prisoners under plans to rent spare capacity abroad to tackle chronic overcrowding in jails.

The government is in discussions with other European countries to rent spare prison cells, Alex Chalk, the justice secretary, said in a speech to the Conservative Party conference.

He said ministers would change the law to allow prisoners sentenced in England and Wales to serve their terms overseas."

STOP VIOLENT CRIME. EXPORT IT

Dear Dame

I have just returned from Bulgaria.

Bulgarian prisons are empty( one assumes their criminals are in the UK)

Violent crime in our cities is now of such a magnitude that we should consider this stratagem.

Cozy Balkan Clink

We agree with the governments of Poland, Bulgaria and Romania they accept UK prisoners convicted of violent crime.

Our prisoners are sent to serve their sentences in prisons in those countries sited close to Ryanair/Easyjet destinations so that prisoner’s families are able to visit. We charter Ryanair planes to transport prisoners.

Currently, it costs the UK government £50,000 a year to house a prisoner.

In Eastern European countries the annual cost is £1500/2000...so what are the benefits?

1.   We export our violent prisoners to friendly neighbouring countries

2.   Provide those countries with a boost to their economies

3.   Suspend our prison building and renovation programme saving hundreds of millions

4.   Stop violent crime overnight

5.   Give our violent convicts the opportunity to quickly learn a new language under the tutelage of a friendly Balkan warder.

Just an idea, dear Dame

Yours faithfully,
