End private prisons,and Give controle of England's prisons back to HMP service.
britain's prisons are "in their worst state for a decade"(-chief inspector of prisons)
The prison system in Britain,is broken there is no way to deny this. With prison vilonce, drug taking and deaths at an all time high. Now is the time to stand up and say that the current system isn't working.
we are simply asking to go back to a system that worked for over 200 years. The HMP prison service is dying but can be saved. Reform is needed.
There are 14 privately managed prisons in England and Wales, shared between three companies. Five are in the hands of G4S, four are operated by Sodexo, and five by Serco. Within these prisons there is a lot of reports of violence towards inmates by staff aspecialy where g4s are concerned.
keeping prisoners for private gain is modern day slavery.
