People caught trying to break into prison on the increase
Britain’s jails will be criticised today as no more than costly bed-and-break-fast lodgings as new figures show that thousands of prisoners a year reject the chance of early release.
More than 37,000 inmates opted out of tagging and other release schemes between 1999 and 2006, Jack Straw, the Justice Secretary, admitted yesterday. He also revealed that 42 people have been caught trying to break into prisons in the past five years.
