Does Rehab Work For Everyone?

from Talkback with Petrie Hosken

Reform UK leader Nigel Farage has unveiled a controversial criminal justice proposal to deport foreign offenders and rent overseas prison capacity in nations including El Salvador, Kosovo, and the Baltic states. The party claims the move, alongside temporary Nightingale facilities, would free up over 10K spaces to end Labour’s early release scheme. However, Labour dismissed the plan as an unviable long-term gimmick that fails to address immediate overcrowding. Is Reform's proposal the best solution? Is there a limit to who can be rehabilitated? Director of The Centre for Crime and Justice Studies, Richard Garside, goes over these plans and if they can be successful. You then have your say as to whether you agree with Nigel Farage, or if you think this idea wouldn't succeed. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
