Wasn't Two-Tier Keir telling us just a few weeks ago there weren't enough jail cells to hold rapists and murderers? :roll:

I suspect that the human rights lawyers are going to have a field day with these sentences. Starmer hasn't thought things through properly.

I think you'll find those 'rights' only apply to certain sections of the community?

Is it my imagination or is every mainstream media outlet posting the same headlines and catchphrases on the subject, as if they were quoting from a script? That includes the supposedly "Tory" Press, why are they sticking-up for a Labour government? :roll:

I've seen a few overseas news reports, they aren't quite so supportive and often show footage that's not been shown on UK TV!. :roll:
