What a load of undiluted bull shit
A problem caused entirely by 14 years of neglect, mismanagement and underfunding by a Conservative government, is now blamed on a Labour government which has been in power for ten days.
You really couldn't make thise nonsense up

The prison crisis is 100% a Conservative government crisis, caused by the Conservative government, created by the Conservative government. Inherited by the new government, which now has to attempt to try to resolve the crisis somehow And when Labour leaves office you will accept that any prison crisis at that time will be Labours crisis and Labours crisis only ? Thought not . |

Wiki Although this policy has been attributed to the Margaret Thatcher government in the 1980s, community care was not a new idea. As a policy it had been around since the early 1950s. Its general aim was a more cost-effective way of helping people with mental health problems and physical disabilities, by removing them from impersonal, often Victorian, institutions, and caring for them in their own homes. Since the 1950s various governments had been attracted to the policy of community care. Despite support for the policy, the number of in-patients in large hospitals and residential establishments continued to increase. At the same time, public opinion was gradually turned against long-stay institutions by allegations from the media. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Care_in_the_CommunityIt was not a new idea, but it was introduced by Thatcher, and that is the relevant point I was making. My post also covered the points in your post. |

Unless your point is that Thatcher introduced a policy that previous governments since the 50s generally thought was a good idea then you don’t really have a point. |
