This should be interesting when it comes to electing the new Police Commissioners.

Hell, they’ll all want to be MPs next.

Some of them already are.

Here occasionally, but mostly somewhere else

It should be relatively easy to stop this being an excessively emotive issue...

The law says that there must be a defined criteria by which the prisoners allowed to vote are selected.

So define that as "anyone due to complete their sentence in the next 5 years" and you have a sensible logical solution - anyone else can't complain because they won't be on the street to benefit...

anyone who is of voting age and who will be free during the next elected term should have the right to vote, after all they will be out and living in society so why not

Would like to bet that plenty of people complaining about this didn't actually go and vote last time around.

Whatever anyone thinks about prisoners getting the vote, there are a lot more people outside prison than in it.

Any constituency in which the relatively few prisoners manage to influence a result due to apathy of locals who don't use their vote deserves whatever it gets.

That's a point - which MP are they voting for? The one where the prison is, or the one where their home address is?
