I’m not sure who Noriega is. I could Wiki, but I thought I’d throw my ignorance out there, for education’s sake.

I am understand Mister Noriega has been a model prisoner tho. A fierece one in the library, his overdue notes are taken seriously.

We’re releasing Manuel Noriega in September for similar reasons (he’s only served half his time).

Building prisons is what the Conservatives did in the eighties and nineties - prison population had been c55,000, but then started to rise. The Tories were roundly abused for this, since building prisons was seen as being “the price of failure”. For the liberal Establishment - of which this judge-effect bloke is clearly a member, the damage to their amour propre caused by the mere thought of building prisons, why, it’s insupportable. So expect to see your friendly neighbourhood murderer out on early release on a street near you, sometime soon.

I assumed it was satire until I read your comment.
