PC Gareth Phillips suffered potentially life-changing injuries when he was punched to the ground and hit by his car in Moseley, Birmingham, last month.

The traffic officer was attacked stopping Mubashar Hussain, 29, who had stolen a Range Rover Evoque.

Odd place Birmingham. Biggest city by far after London yet you never hear of it, almost as if it`s invisible to the rest of the country.

Britain is clearly going to need to build a lot of extra prisons to keep pace with their phenomenal rate of crime perpetrated by Culturally Enriching Followers of Peaceful Religions folk, and doubtless the next generation of criminals they are breeding. 

Naturally these inconvenient facts about disproportionately high prison numbers still won't stop any lefty 'progressives' parroting the phrase "Diversity Is Our Strength".

The problem is all over the UK, not just Birmingham.....................................

THE 2018/19 report of the Chief Inspector of Prisons Scotland, Wendy Sinclair-Gieben, makes for grim reading.

The prison population grew over the past year by 709 to 8,122, an equivalent growth of one additional large prison. But there was no new prison to put them in, placing intense pressure on existing prison infrastructure.

“The additional number of prisoners and an increasingly complex population places a heavy burden on an already overstretched prison service in Scotland,” Sinclair-Gieben said.

That's not how it works. Most probably the criteria to enter prison will be modified so that the prison population remains under control. This will mean more criminals out on the street. It will also mean that many crimes that will send you to prison today won't be worthy of prison time in the future. Basically your law and order policies will reflect the population they are implemented upon.

The alternative is as you suggested, build more prisons. But if that was a good idea many third world countries would be full of prisons. But they aren't. They just set the bar to get into one accordingly.

In the 3rd world they just get more people in the prisons by ramming them full.
No human rights so they can do what they want
There are no cells, just large gyms sized rooms where they sleep tip to toe and side by side.
Use a empty water bottle for a pillow and eat proper slops that even a dog would turn it's nose up at.
Also a lot more convicts die from disease & murder.

That's what happens when you rip the major employer out of the area. The reason Smallheath exists in the first place is because of BSA ever since BSA was stabbed in the back by the DTI in 73 the whole area has lacked a reason to exist, and has been slipping towards the kind of place it is today

This week it's Huddersfield that plays host to ANOTHER 'Grooming' (i.e. Rape of Sexually-Underaged Girls) Gang trial.

Nine men and a woman facing 27 charges, including 20 of rape.

I've lost £20 on it already because I bet that at least one of the defendants would have a surname of either Trueman, Hutton, Illingworth or Close.

I have done a lot of research into BSA and what went wrong most of what people think are the reasons for BSA demise are wrong.
Honda and the CB 750 seems to often get the blame but in reality it had nothing to do with the Japanese at all, but there are a lot of people on the bord of BSA and the  British government who were only to happy to let the Japanese take the blame.
