Proceeding contribution from Edward Leigh (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 7 December 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Rehabilitation and Sentencing.
Rehabilitation and Sentencing
I notice that my Conservative Secretary of State says: ““Prison cannot continue to be simply an expensive way of giving communities a break.”” I am sorry, but communities deserve a break—they deserve a break from being burgled. Will my right hon. and learned Friend assure me that on his watch, people who cause absolute misery by thieving from people's homes, particularly those of elderly people, can expect to go to prison, where they deserve to be?
