A childhood friend went to Borstal. came back never to re-offend. build his business , sold it last year to retire to Jersey at age 40. Others in the gang went on through the system because they were a few years younger and fodder for the social workers.
By going through the system, I mean supervision order, and another, then probation, then 6 months suspended and then 6 months plus the suspended.
Only then did they learn what should have been tought to them as a 14yr old instead of 22 and in the big boys house.
What was the phrase, "Tough on crime, and tough on the causes of crime". Bollox, soft on crime and we don't know the cause because the naughty boys won't tell us why they feel the need to be naughty.
