Petition Action

Prisoner should earn their keep like the rest of us

Additional Information

The EU claims it is against prisoners' human rights to make them earn their living whilst serving a prison sentence. I believe it is against the public interest to make us support criminals at a cost of billions of pounds a year, to feed, clothe, house and care for them. Prisons should become self-sufficient, it would do the prisoners more good.
