Prison Numbers Reach All Time High

Prison Numbers Reach All Time High

"The latest Ministry of Justice figures have revealed British prisons are only 102 places away from reaching their 82,020 capacity".

Well, Jack Straw, Minister of Justice, and the man legally responsible for this mess, what do you intend doing about it? What's that you say, nothing? The problem will not go away by ignoring it. Pull your finger out man!

Last week the BBC reported this. And, once again, Mark Leech, the editor of ConVerse plagarised the article verbatim from the BBC website, and published it on page 9 of ConVerse and is claiming authorship. Is there no end to this man's dishonesty? On the same page he writes: "Converse may be hard hitting, that is what this newspaper sets out to be: direct, honest, forthright and accurate, but it will always stay within the law...". How is copyright theft honest and within the law? Perhaps Mark Leech would like to explain, as I'm buggered if I know the answer.
