Petition Self Sufficient Prisons

More details

A considerable amount of money is poured into running Britains prisons every year; money that is desperately needed and could be much better spent elsewhere. As the number of people in prison is now at a record high, the cost is rising fast.
Prisoners currently have everything they need supplied for them. Therefore, by making prisons as self sufficient as possible, massive savings could be made.
If it can be grown, grow it! If it can be made, make it! Basically, if it's something they want, they need to put in the work to get it!
