Firing squads / cutting off the hands / exporting to the colonies seems more and more the attractive options with the passing of the years

Firing squads: Possibly.

Cutting off hands: No, we'd have to support them on benefits afterwards.

Exporting to the colonies: No, they'd just come back much later and beat us at sport.

Like call centres, how about moving our prison service abroad - say India? I'm sure that would be a cheaper option, and we need only pay a one way fare for the crims!

OMG.....that is such a brilliant idea, then maybe bring our call centres back here and increase employment at the same time, the redundant call centre operatives over there could become prison officers.....this really is a win/win situation....if only those in power had the good common sense and intelligence that the majority of the general public here have......and there wasnt such a totally OTT "human rights" movement to object.....and whats worse.....be listened to......:mad:

Trouble is that although the country chosen may agree to this nice little arrangement, I'm sure they would want it to work both ways and they send their unwanted here ... Hmmmmm maybe it's already started

I suspect your tune would be different if your human rights were removed or trampled over.
Just because some ar ole lawyers have discovered a nice cushy way of feathering their nest, doesn't mean the concept of human rights is wrong. I would like to remind some people this is not the 17th Century any more.
