how are they proposing to reduce prison population? Is it time end the Butlins experiment and turn jails into places that no one wants to return to? We should also consider outsourcing prisons for sentences over 6 months.

TTT - There needs to be a far more expansive and robust programme of support for offenders to turn their lives around before they leave prison for the first time - that's the only realistic way of stopping them coming back.
A lot of recidivists simply - to quote the immortal Porridge intro - see prison as an occupational hazard - that circle needs to be broken.
The problem is, in common with nursery education, it's not sexy, and it will take more than one Parliament to see any result, so any government will be reluctant to plough money into something when the other side may get the credit when it starts to work.

I'd have thought that if anyone would lend their support to the proposals it would be Liz Truss.
If non-custodial sentences are to be considered then there has to be a major upgrade to the community service lot to ensure that scallies aren't in their pits when they should be out picking up the rubbish they dropped last night.
No more standing around having a fag and texting either, head down, *** up for the duration, otherwise it's all the usual pash from politicians.

perhaps taxpayers will be happy to hand over more money in order to get more prisons, more police and more managers dealing with it all, though my impression has always been that nobody wants to pay any taxes at all. The notion of G4S running prisons, or running anything at all, is crazy, given their total failure to do their job at the Olympics, but they do. I can only assume they do it cheaply.
My colleague is married to the Governor of the prison where the rioting took place and she herself worked there until recently.
She told me there is a prevailing sense on entitlement among today's criminal fraternity and inmates are given Argos catalogues upon arrival to chose their pillows and duvets.
How on earth can the government justify the cuts made to the NHS, the Police Force, etc, and yet these worthless, drug-addled specimens can be given expensive bedding and other such comforts. They should be made to sleep with old army blankets, the little swines.
