Closed More funding should be put towards prisons to improve conditions

Closed on

We believe more funding is needed for prisons, to better the conditions in there and for it to be more humane for prisoners. We believe current conditions contribute to high re-offending rates and poor health of prisoners and prison staff.

Less re-offending rates would lead to the UK being a safer place overall, and would help make prisons less overcrowded as well. The safety of our citizens should be the top priority, and we believe this would be a massive step towards making the UK a wonderful place to live.
