The latest tranche of early releases from Prison have offered some controversial images for the government, as we see pictures of prisoners being picked up from Prison in luxury cars like Bentleys.
Hardly the image of "Crime Doesn't Pay".
And yet again, Labour say it's the fault of the Tories.
I'm sorry, but you've been in power long enough to implement schemes that would avoid these images. You could by now have rented prison ships that would be docked at our ports, you could have repurposed MOD camps, you could have tasked a firm to come up with a completely new low-category secure facility made out of portakabins. You do know you can stack them up three high at least, don't you?
There are any number of things Labour could do to mitigate the situation, but:
Like a petulant child, they want to have a bit of theatre, have a flounce to prove the point.
Except, like a parent watching a petulant child throw a tantrum in the middle of a supermarket, or do something stupid to make a point, I don't care.
I want prisoners to be in prison. You've had 4 months to sort it out and you haven't. Instead you are making a scene.
Labour, you are shit at government.
Stop acting like kids and start leading.
Or is all we are going to see of this term of government one flounce after another, one scene after another and bad governance?
I suspect the latter, because two-tier Kier is no leader in my eyes. He doesn't even give off any leadership vibes.
He seems the sort of person that forms a committee just to tell him how many sugars he should put in his coffee.
He doesn't look even remotely capable of making a single unilateral leadership decision.
So far he's looked like a middle-class parent faced with a truculent toddler, you know the sort: can't deal with someone that argues back. I've seen that face in so many supermarkets as the kid argues and screams from isle to isle. The "What do I do?" face.
