Charity Nacro in bid to run two new prisons
A penal reform charity is bidding to run two new prisons.
For those who believe that penal reform groups are part of the problem and not the solution, the news that NACRO is seeking to charitably punish prisoners will only serve to confirm this view. When a charity seeks to profit from prisoners which is what NACRO will be doing here, pity help the prisoners. NACRO has lost its moral compass engaging in this venture. I always thought it was too closely aligned with the government, now it is too closely aligned with the prison business. Surely, NACRO should lose its charity status if it is no longer helping prisoners and former prisoners and instead is helping itself to profit from prisoners misery?

jailhouselawyer,
Prisoners have my sympathy; they're heading for the same 'no voice or rights' situation as Britain's elderly since their care became a 'privately managed, highly profitable business'. British staff were ousted in favour of untrained immigrants.
CSCI, abuse monitors, are rendered powerless as a result of privatization.
Last, but not least, the elderly are not honestly or openly informed; they're mislead and conned.
Do you think the police are next on the Government's hidden agenda for private contracts ?
note that nacro now calls itself a 'crime reduction charity'. And note that g4s owns gsl, wackenhut and rebound. All criticised for abuses of detainees and racism as well as general ineptitude. Remember rye hill? That nacro can join with g4s is truly shameful and points to a nightmare future - bg.
