My wife is a social worker and she has 30 cases when she should only have 12. She works in child services as well. Its easy to blame social workers but they are short staffed and underfunded.

Yet letting 'em out before they have served half their sentence coz we are " full up "  

Indeed, which makes me wonder how Farage is going to pay for it. Did he say where , when or how these extra prisoners are going to be housed? Or was it just something he said with no back up?

HS2, yeah scrap that. Net zero, not sure on how much that costs as when I've looked it up it's between 4 billion and 50 billion a year depending on who you believe.
