Bring Back Public Corporal Punishment
The recent rioting and disorder across Britain has shown that there is no fear of the law by a large number of people. We need to withdraw from the European Convention on Human Rights which has led to more dignity and rights for criminals rather than victims. Public beatings/ the stocks would be cheaper and more effective than prison, and would restore a proper sense of fear of wrongdoing.
