'They know I'll be back': Prisoners celebrate early release

Violent criminals released from prison early on Tuesday have said they are “certainly not” rehabilitated and may reoffend.

Men jailed for burglaries or serious assaults described a prison system in crisis after leaving HMP Brixton in south London, most after serving only 40 per cent of their sentences.

"releasing people in waves you going to get crime in waves, it's simple mathematics" It says a lot when ex prisoner's make more sense than government policy

[wecandothiswarriors]

Didn't they build six new prisons? Oh yeah, they are for the dissidents

[Matt]

its good they show this guy as an example of the prisoners being released and not the black lad that murdered someone

[george]

El Salvador, 100 executions per week. I bet they don’t have overcrowded prisons.

[steptay]

This country is a sick joke releasing these people early.

He’ll soon want to go back inside when he has to pay for his own rent, council tax, meals, gas, electricity, water. He’ll discover that people are paying for overcrowded accommodation outside prison.

We need the room for those who dare to protest about mass immigration.

Congratulation to Labour Government and Voters for ruined many victim loved ones justice.

What I can't understand is there appears to be plenty of money being spent to house illegal immigrants in hotels etc, and yet there doesn't seem to be a simple plan to build more prisons to solve the overcrowding issues? Why not?

[phteven]

God forbid criminals are uncomfortable

[manweller]

Look on the bright side at least all those nasty folks who say mean stuff on twitter are still locked up.

[Samcohenisrael]

They know I'll be back, which means I'm going to create a victim, absolutely disgusting.

[DavidGetling]

This sends a clear message to criminals. Unless you make a racist tweet you will not end up in jail.

[felicityfourie]

So very sorry that you found prison so inconvenient.

[LennonZA]

Letting out criminals to house non-criminals... Backwards Britain

[ThesocialmuteHD]

Highest rate of reoffenders are the ones they are letting out
That shows how much sense this system is

[rogercude]

Sure to be a Sudden rise in crime! And throwing a can at a cop carrys more jail time than breaking into a house and stealing someone's lifetime possessions..

[opulenthalo]

It's crazy to hear people in prison complain about their living situations... don't go to prison then🤡

[UP_YRS_NWO]

The irony thay he looks like kier starmmer 😂

"I've been in and they've given me nothing to do"

Mate, it's not Centre Parcs ffs
