Scrap Prison Luxuries
Prisoners are put in prison to be punished and to protect the public. Too many prisoners (probably all) are receiving extensive luxuries including free gymnasium access, access to Televisions etc.
Though these are not actual luxuries and are what most people use anyway, these are luxury for convicted criminals who should be given the absolute most basic cell, food, and healthcare.
No prisoners should be able to receive training lessons, or get qualifications (especially not a degree). All prison restaurants should be scrapped (e.g. the Clink restaurant) and prisoners should made to serve their sentence as they did many years ago.
I call upon people to sign this petition to persuade Her Majesty's Government and Her Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for Justice to review prisons and to scrap all prisons luxuries.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.
You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
