Rejected petition Make prison a hardship and not a luxury holiday

More details

Most of the country are law abiding citizens but the few that are not and are serving a custodial sentence should not be living in better conditions than most law abiding tax payers and the military that serve this proud nation of ours. I suggest that due to the current state of economic down turn these prisoner be put to work doing tasks that could generate money for the government and deter them from reoffending when they get realeased
