Not to harp on yet again but, when Labour was spending through the roof like psychotic idiots, they were closing prisons, letting people out early and point blank refusing to build new prisons because that would be admitting crime was up and criminals needing to be behind bars are up.
This is not Cameron's fault, these prisons needed to be STARTED 5-10 years ago, we need several huge prisons, we need cheaper larger numbers in a room worse condition and cheaper prisons and they needed to be finished long ago with people getting real sentences, not ones directed in length by how many people are in our too fee prisons.
even with cuts, I think hell, it SHOULD be cheaper to keep people in large cells in prison on crap food, then on benefits, and if we can get essentially chain gangs working, there has to be something we can get them to do that saves us money by doing a job others won't do. We need to build prisons because rather than people doing the jail terms they deserve, which will help put off their kids, parents are getting out of jail with fewer consequences, onto increased benefits and teaching their kids to be bad.
As for teaching, the single most important factor in learning and education, is willingness to learn, not your school, not your teachers, not the area you are from or your friends. Parents have a HUGE effect on this, parents that don't let their kids roam the streets but have them do their homework, learn, and encourage them to read and educate themselves will learn more than a school can ever instill on a kid whose parents tell them school is worthless.
Teaching itself has gone downhill, it really is so simple, its centuries old advice in parenting, kids acting out do so for attention, give them attention you are teaching them to act out. Ignore them, and they'll stop, its really that simple, so what do schools do now with "troubled" kids, then give them WAY more attention than the good kids, so even the good kids see no reason in working hard, good kids, hard working kids are ignored and troubled kids are given extra attention. This is the exact opposite of what schools should be doing, and USED to do, which USED to work.
God damn labour have screwed everything, ruined every single public service, while also massively overspending, and left conservatives to make cut backs while also requiring radical changes to basically every service.
People will get bored, vote Labour in and they'll **** us over again.
