The fact the jails are filling suggests it don't work... next!
What do you think then, we should bar our windows, lock the doors and allow the thugs to take over and give up.
What you do is bring back Capital punishment for serial killers, child killers and Police killers.
You bring back Corporal punishment for low level offenders.
You make a life sentence mean life and you give long sentences without all the home comforts that prisoners enjoy now to heavy offenders.
It's easy, you make it tough for yobs, thugs and thieves who pray on decent law abidding citizens.
It's called a meaningful deterent.
