Illogical, dangerous, expensive.
You improve reoffending by investing in schools and skills training, stopping people entering the system in the first place and if they do ensuring they don’t reoffend.
As for the local economies. Frankly that’s draconian
Ministry of Justice@MoJGovUK

#Government has failed to stop spread of #coronavirus in #prisons: more than 500 prisoners have tested positive in our overcrowded prisons

Lib Dem leader @EdwardJDavey speaks out about the MH crisis in prisons
Ed Davey@EdwardJDavey
These figures show a shocking mental health crisis in our prisons. We have to support people with mental health problems in every area of society. Prisons should be places for rehabilitation, but it is clear that the Government's prison policy is totally failing.

Madness. It we invested even a tenth of this in decent recidivism reduction programmes (training, upskilling, counselling and community engagement) we would save astronomical amounts in reoffending costs.

.@CRobertson_LD is an excellent campaigner and achieved a remarkable result at the last election. I'm so glad to have his support.
I am determined to make the reforms our party needs so that @LibDems can win at every level, and in every community.

Great to see a joint initiative between prisoners & prison officers.
Prisoners have embraced the idea of supporting the NHS wholeheartedly, many have carried out fundraising campaigns & others have even offered to work without their usual prison wages.

- He interpreted the rules in a way that we have all been told not to
- took a “test drive” to a public place when he should’ve been isolating
- refuses to apologise or show remorse for his actions
- turned up half an hour late with no good reason
Clear that DC needs to go now
Ed Davey@EdwardJDavey
Cummings’ statement confirms he broke the guidelines When millions kept to those rules The PM must now terminate his contract - if he wants to regain any credibility in leading the country on dealing with the Coronavirus crisis bbc.com/news/uk-politi…

So this Government will investigate a tweet from a civil servant
But not a serious breach of public health rules by the PM’s closest advisor
It just gets worse....
Cabinet Office@cabinetofficeuk
An unauthorised tweet was posted on a government channel this evening. The post has been removed and we are investigating the matter.

If the Prime Minister doesn’t sack Cummings today, his authority to lead the country in this public health crisis will be totally undermined 👇
Sky News@SkyNews
"This is a question of leading the country." @EdwardJDavey says the PM should be focusing on #coronavirus issues and by not dismissing Cummings, he is sending a "worrying message to people." #Breakfast live: trib.al/NJ70lwb

@LD4prisonreform @thehowardleague @PRTuk Sadly the Justice Dept has no intention to improve the plight of Inmates & prison staff. Clearly noticeable in their lack of action - 55 out of 4000 released to date-Shameful! #robertbucklandhasfailed #lucyfrazerhasfailed

At the latest coronavirus press conference, I asked how many prisoners in total – & how many pregnant prisoners – had been released under the early release scheme. Michael Gove didn’t have the latest figures & quoted the incredibly poor total of 33 that we were told on Monday.
