Vote Labour

Every week, there is an example of a law-abiding citizen who is murdered by someone who has either been let out of prison early, or not sent there at all, but instead given a sentence of "supervision in the community". One of Mr Hart's killers had been given a "community sentence order" for theft just two days before he broke into Mr Hart's house.

The rights of criminals seem to have become a national fetish.
