Fail on jail
PRISON works — and don’t just take it from us.
Listen to MI5, the National Crime Agency and the Met Police, who are united in believing that the Government’s soft-touch jail reforms — coupled with budget cuts — will lead to a dangerous crimewave.
AlamyLabour must build prisons and put more coppers back on the beat where they belong[/caption]
People would have more sympathy for the cops’ claims of underfunding if they weren’t blowing millions on diversity or going mob-handed to arrest people for social media messages.
Taxpayers might also ask how much worse it can possibly get, given police no longer bother to arrest most shoplifters and burglars.
Nevertheless, chief constables DO have legitimate concerns about what the impact of early release will be.
The Left endlessly complains about a lack of rehabilitation inside jail, but it at least gives forces and the public a break from serial offenders.
You can’t burgle a house when you’re behind bars.
So here’s an idea to help Labour get tough on law and order:
Stop blowing £4billion a year on asylum hotels — and instead use the cash to build some prisons and put more coppers back on the beat where they belong.
Water torture
BRITAIN may be full to bursting — but our reservoirs certainly aren’t.
It is a catastrophic failure for ministers to admit that mass immigration means the country will run out of clean drinking water in just ten years.
There is no doubt that the toxic greed of management in the water companies is partly responsible.
Ridiculous planning rules also mean the UK hasn’t built a new reservoir for over three decades.
But massive population increases in our cities have driven the whole system to breaking point.
One argument from pro-immigration lobbyists is that the pressure placed on our public services is over-stated.
That idea has now been well and truly blown out of the water.
Bad medicine
LAST year the Chancellor gambled on a 22 per cent pay rise for junior doctors — coupled with a belief that the dispute was ideological and designed to topple the Tories — to end their crippling strikes.
All it has actually done is embolden the Marxist medics at the BMA to demand ANOTHER 29 per cent.
What next? 50 per cent?
The point of these “resident doctors” is that they’re actually resident in hospitals to help sick and dying patients.
Not to spend weeks on picket lines causing another NHS crisis with their wildly unrealistic pay demands.
