Default Ford open prison ablaze

I hope those responsible are punished severely for this, with a good beating from the riot officers, followed by a long extension to their sentences in higher cat prisons!

instead what nothing will happen to the culprits and the ones that did not take part in the riot will sue for stress.

Bizarrely this prison doesn't accept offenders convicted of arson.

I know a bloke who was in Ford prison for a few weeks, he said it was like an holiday camp, so i can't see why they'd start a riot.

Nice ideas and replies from all.
Loving the idea of making them rebuild it.

I haven't seen my local MP, Nic Herbert, on any of the news clips. He must be the nearest MP living near Ford and is Police Minister

Keeping his head down (and there is a joke there )

Was pleased to hear that some of the prisoners have been transferred to Belmarsh, haha that should be a wake up call for some, hopefully the ones to blame.
Fingers crossed they will serve extended sentences there too.

Still shocked at the damage caused, but was not surprised to hear it's being put down to the cuts.

What a waste, no wonder the country is f*cked, scumbags that burn down the place they are held in, sounds pretty cushy, I think a couple of snipers picking them off may have quelled their enthusiasm for rioting.

Sorry for the thread diversion Snaz but when I see the word ablaze, one thing pops into my mind.

"It has been claimed there were only two prison officers and four support staff on duty for a prison population of 496 when the trouble started." http://uk.news.yahoo.com/21/20110102...f-6323e80.html
It beggars belief how anyone in charge could possibly think this is adequate staffing.

no blame apportioned result from the first one

And........ wait for it, those involved "could" face prosecution ... sorry

"could" face prosecution??? they should be saying.. "Will" face

prosecution. And get some tents and sleeping bags in there....That's the

accommodation blocks rebuilt, you destroyed it guys, now live with the

consequences of your actions.... BTW -12 i believe forecast

They were saying that the organisation is too lax and there was a very good supply of alcohol and drugs obtainable by the prisoners. The place was more like a holiday camp according to an ex prisoner.

Hell of a mess, and very expensive too.

Looks like the staff need sorting out.

Yep. Apparently people used to bring fish and chips down from the local takeaway at lunchtime and pass it through the fence for a few £
