Simon Heffer Mail on Sunday 3rd May advocates educating prisoners as poor education is often behind offending. I agree, also banning books is symptomatic of a Totalitarian Society!
However I go further Why don't we educate everyone to a minimum standard ion schools?
Its obviously too late when they've broken the law and ended up in Prison.
I've always said I was educated enough by 11 yrs to function happily in society, why can't that be done for everyone? Kids that are uneducated are the ones that "hang around" kick their heels and get into trouble.
Investment here would pay dividends for our society in the long run. We don't perpetually want an underclass of criminals do we.
