@stewie7338 a key point of the Labour manifesto was dealing with immigration. The Tory plans for immigration were rejected overwhelmingly by the electorate.

The physical paper isn’t the problem. The online paper is the most read in the world.

@stephfoxwell4620 that’s absolutely rubbish, only 11% of the prison population are foreign born, but 15% of the UK population is foreign born. So a lower proportion of the population of foreign born people are in prison.

@stevec700 really, why do you think that? Got some examples?

@stephfoxwell4620 my figures were the Government figures. You are now being dishonest and arguing another point. You first said all foreigners were over represented in prison. That is not true. They are not. There are less foreign born people in prison as a percent of population. If you had said originally that people from some specific countries are more likely to be imprisoned than British citizens then that would have been correct. But you didn’t say it. You misrepresented the data to suit your argument and changed the narrative the moment you were challenged. Finally, it doesn’t suit your anti immigrant point anyways as that means the imprisonment rate for people from all the other countries is even lower than the British born population. So that just means, at worse, we should encourage immigration from those countries instead.

@stephfoxwell4620 the home office don’t record if they are migrants only that they are foreign born which is the same number as you quoted above. And they are not imprisoned at 5 times the number of British born. For that to happen 75% of our prison population would be foreign born. I don’t think you understand the numbers you are quoting.
