Softie Clarke and His Cabinet Cronies are Responsible!

'Nearly two thirds of criminals avoid jail despite amassing at least 15 convictions, shocking figures show. Instead of being put behind bars, more than 62,000 offenders were given lesser punishments, such as community service or a fine, last year. More than 4,000 walked out of court with only a caution. The figures reveal that serial offenders are less likely to be given a jail sentence today than at any time in the past decade.'

AND YET. Over and over again we are being assailed with the idea that a criminal is just some unfortunate who has been jailed without thinking by a savage judiciary - and this near-innocent is now heading for a 'university of crime'.

READ these stats and it is immediately apparent that the tales I have brought from the Sheffield Bench are not mere figments of my imagination.

So. Who are the people trying so hard to mislead? - Answer, 'the usual suspects'.
