Slightly less restrictive I admit, but I had hoped the changes would have gone further.

Perhaps giving them the vote, might help them intergrate into society better. Especially young offenders, it could teach them that the pen is mightier than the sword and that they can influence change in a positive way. I understand that may be uncomfortable for some people, especially victims of crime.Emma Roganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11935161129739445849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3448735657556520092.post-31346217105533384732011-01-20T15:57:55.204+00:002011-01-20T15:57:55.204+00:00There is much debate/noise/contradiction on

If you commit an offence so serious that the Courts deems a period of detention appropriate then you have opted out of society for that amount of time. Being unable to vote is as much of the punishment as taking any other liberties away. I do not want to afford the luxury of voting to murderers, paedophiles etc.. in this age of austerity that is a luxury we can ill afford and even if we had all the money in the world do we want our MP's wasting time campaigning in prisons - some of the prisons hold so many inmates their votes could make a real difference locally.Kikihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12506870691231563942noreply@blogger.com
