Are They Sure?

.
I’m not at all sure about the latest idea dreamt up by the North Wales Criminal Justice Board who are displaying a mobile prison cell at events across north Wales so that the under-18s can see what life in a jail is like.

Funded by money confiscated from criminals and built by inmates of a Liverpool prison, the mobile cell is mounted on a trailer donated by a local company. Its purpose is meant to dissuade young people from a life of crime.

I’m not sure about this idea. Though nothing has been said about the three meals a day and access to education, a gym and other facilities that exist in prisons, the cell comes complete with a bunk, television, hand-basin and toilet.

That may be more comfort than some of those young kids have now!
