Proceeding contribution from Lord Clarke of Nottingham (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 7 December 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Rehabilitation and Sentencing.
Rehabilitation and Sentencing
Yes. It is sometimes difficult to debate law and order in this country. Occasionally, I have to listen to a kind of looney-tunes debate about whether I am starting by releasing murderers, rapists, burglars or paedophiles. I believe that serious criminals should be in prison. I have never met a sane person who wishes to disturb that. I believe in long and severe sentences for people guilty of such a serious crime as paedophilia.
