I expect Timpson approves strongly of this, even though David Gauke did the original report.
Prison is an excellent idea for some people, it's just that actual prisons are usually bad, particularly what are called local prisons, which hoover up most of the criminals in an area. That includes some people for very serious offences, because few get sent to specialized high security prisons, but also lots of people who aren't particularly dangerous. It would be good maybe if these two groups could maybe be imprisoned in separate jails.
