What's the difference between a law-abiding 16 or 17 year old and a convicted and imprisoned rapist, murderer or paedophile?
Simples!
The former has no say in the politics of his country, the latter may have soon.
But this is Scotland!!!! Surely Big Eck will be having none of this? Not the case i'm afraid. Justice may be a devolved matter, voting eligibility and good old compensation is reserved to the House of Shame down South.
Prisoners being able to vote for the party that promise them the most compensation. You couldn't make it up!
Then they will be voting for the SNP, the handout, pay later, so longs as we can stay in power party.
ReplyDeleteYou can't blame the SNP for the Human Rights Act.
