The hits just keep on coming in Merrie Olde England

The first paragraph of this article:

"Thousands of criminals, including violent thugs and drug offenders, will serve only five days in jail under desperate plans to ease overcrowding. "

So let me get this straight. You disarm the entire population of England, down to taking away kitchen cutlery, and then you let loose the vast majority of criminals because you're short of jail space?

Insanity. Absolute insanity. How about building more jails?

I think I've taken my last trip to Britain. A shame, too. They have wonderful beer.

"Rank-and-file police said it was demoralising for officers, who put criminals behind bars only for them to quickly return to a life of crime."

I bet.
