So it looks like the governments outsourcing justice program is proving once again that the firms that supply "justice" to our population are corrupt.

Capita employees are being paid by criminals to loosen their tags so they can be easily removed.

So outsourcing and the privatisation of justice to so called "security firms" what's your thoughts?

Now why is anyone surprised that someone on minimum (sorry living) wage is willing to take a bribe to loosen a tag? After all tags are not about reducing crime they are about justice on the cheap and privatising justice so that super-rich multinationals can profiteer at the cost of all of us. Remember it is not so long ago that they were found to be billing for tags that were never used.

Privatisation is an easy way to get certain expenditures off government books, austerity 'n that.

Simple fact is, pay peanuts you get monkeys.

Let's hope public safety isn't gravely endangered in the meantime.

Well in Essex and Kent it isnt anyway. Everyone is currently up in arms about what is going on abroad and with ukip they forget we have underlying problems with how current government privatises our system.
