CHANGING PLACES

today in the paper, a lowlife scumbag old lady mugger is moaning about the long sentence he got for "only stealing a handbag". To me, the 2 years wasnt long enough, bearing in mind he had done it before. the news item just before was about the lack of quality care our seniors get in care homes. I just had and idea. Lets put the seniors in prison and the prisoners in care homes. In prison, the seniors would have access to showers, hobbies, and excercise classes. In prison they would have access to unlimited free prescriptions, dental and medical treatment, wheelchairs and suchlike, and they would receive money instead of paying it out. They would have constant video monitoring, so they can receive assistance should if they have a trip or fall.
Bedding would be washed twice a week , and all clothing would be ironed and returned to them. A guard would check on them every twenty minutes and bring their meals to their cells.
They would have family visits in a suite built just for that purpose. They would have access to a library, a weights room, a swimming pool, spititual counselling and education. Simple clothing like shoes, slippers PJs and legal aid would be free on request. Private (secure) rooms for everyone, and a safe excercise yard and garden area.
Each senior could have a PC, a TV, a radio and daily phone calls. There would be a board of directors to hear complaints, and they guards would have a code of conduct that would be strictly adhered to.
The "criminals" in a home would get cold food, be left all alone and unsupervised. Lights out at 8 pm, and shower only once a week. They would live in a tiny room and pay £600 per week with no hope of ever getting out.
Thats what I think we should do, put our poor sad crims in a home and send our old folk to prison. True justice me thinks.
WHO DO YOU WANT FOR LONDON MAYOR NOW???
