In UK, Violent Criminals Will be Released to Make Space for Social Media Thought Criminals
by Paul Joseph Watson | Modernity News
The Labour government is set to release thousands of criminals, including those convicted for violence, in order to make room for prisoners sentenced in connection with rioting, which includes people who made inflammatory posts on social media.
Yes, really.
In an effort to tackle to jail overcrowding crisis, Labour has ordered the release of 2,000 prisoners on a single day next month, in addition to a second tranche of up to 1,700 who will be released in October.
Criminals who have served 40 per cent of their sentence or more will be freed, partly to make space for Brits convicted for their role in anti-immigration riots over the last few weeks.
Some of the individuals being convicted for their role in inciting the riots didn’t even appear at the riots, but instead made social media posts which contained things such as “anti-establishment rhetoric” or posted “misinformation” about the Southport attacker being a Muslim refugee.
Insanity squared
Nearly 2000 prisoners to be released on a single day to make way for ‘armchair rioters’, carers and pensioners sentenced for up to 3 yrs.

As the Telegraph reports, those released from prison “will include criminals convicted of violence who have been jailed for less than four years.”
In other words, actual violent criminals who haven’t even served half of their prison sentences will be out on the streets so that boomers who posted spicy memes on Facebook can be locked up.
When Prime Minister Keir Starmer was asked if releasing criminals early posed a “risk to public safety,” he struggled to answer the question.

“We’ve taken tough decisions, we’ve been able to prove that if you commit disorder, you can expect to be put through the criminal justice system quickly, and we will continue in that vein,” said Starmer.
In addition, under Operation Early Dawn, riot suspects will be held in police cells until a prison space can be found rather than sending them straight to court.
As we document in the video below, more prison space will be required in the future to incarcerate people who engage in ‘extreme misogyny’.
