You know, I like a good read, now and again.
You wouldn’t think so, would you?
But yes, I like a good read.
I’ve also kept half an eye on an on-going news story: restrictions introduced by Justice Minister, Chris Grayling, on the number of books sent in to those in prison.
I personally can’t help but think that that is the stupidest possibly move.
Not just from a rehabilitation view point.
From the little I know, prison officers rarely have time to take inmates to the equally undermanned prison library.
What’s more … ? A book being sent in by family is a good way of encouraging prisoner literacy, and occupied: and, I believe out of trouble.
And quite possibly, from ALSO joining a riot.
Let’s call a spade a spade, here. I think Justice Minister Chris Grayling is being an outright idiot, for promoting these restrictions.
