Prison overcrowding.

I think there is a serious argument for setting up a penal colony in one of our overseas territories.

Elon Musk is probably working on putting a prison on Proxima Centauri. It would take about 40,000 years to get there so it will only be for proper villains who've said something really nasty.

This could easily be solved by the Government reviewing those suspected of being wrongfully convicted.Thousands would be released. To help in future the police should collect all evidence and supply the court with their findings not just the prosecuting side,and lose the" nick nick" mentality.Eventually British justice would become the envy of the rest of the world.

Nice idea in principle but in practice would take an age and take significant resources so is just not practical.
Every conviction has the right to an appeal already - the main way a case gets further reviewed is if new evidence comes to light (e.g. a new witness) or information previously supplied is deemed unreliable.

Surely the only medium term solution is for us to build more prisons

Every innocent person should be free, if you jail an innocent person a serial criminal goes free to further there misdeeds.

Can't prisoners just be made to work as Junior Doctors or train drivers?

I think Lucy Letby could be tried in a pediatric ward. It might be good for her appeal.

Junior Doctors are now Resident Doctors.

Train drivers will become railway vehicle managers.

Bin men will become recycling operatives.

The Prison in La Paz, Bolivia is the blue print, no guards on the inside, run by drug cartel leaders, 5/6 people just disappear each week, meals are cooked by the prisoners, with what is bought in by family members, wives and kids can live in there with their husband if they want, all sex offenders are drowned on their first day, costs next to nothing to run, and the scum murder each other.
