    The two biggest problems with our prison system is overcrowding and lack of staff.
    There are far too many people in prison and the system cannot cope.
    Because of this there is no effective rehabilitation, most prisoners just end up doing their time and eventually being released without anything being done to help them to stop re-offending.
    The government and the courts need to realise this and stop sending people to prison for minor offences where other more suitable measures are available.
    I am surprised that many more people do not die in prison, it is a very dangerous place to be mostly due to lack of staff, prisoners are often locked in their cells for 22 or 23 hours every day, and this frustration is what forces them to try drugs to help pass the time, prisoners need help, not just being locked up, help them to learn new skills, help them to stop offending, provide them with the skills they need to lead lawful lives once released.
    But none of this is happening.

    Correctional 'services' should not be run by a profit motive. Inevitably it will lead to far higher incarceration rates with less security, fewer resources for rehabilitation and higher rates of recidivism. People who run correctional services should answer to us, via government, not shareholders.

    Look at how Sweden and Switzerland do their prisons and jails, need to have therapy rehabilitation and skills to help the inmates . More staff and more pay for the staff, more art and exercise programs, gardens and ability to earn degrees . Help once outside with housing and re-habitation. Less crowding and more environmentally friendly jails and prisons with gardens and relaxing spaces for inmates who behave well and are in programs

      Spent many a year there they send mattresses from the outside into the jail to be chopped up with all kinds of blades and scissors,recycled and sold on for shit money. They paid us £12 a week. Took months to find out where the mattresses came from but it happened. From machete to iPads to any drug under the sun to boxing gloves and mitts. It now recycles CDs instead. The job you did for the money you got was pathetic so you have to make your own or you go hungry and stressed,but for a prison it's a lot better then say Wandsworth,now that's a cesspool of despair,over 30 languages spoke fuck that
