A Whole new meaning to CELL PHONES

Only in the UK you say... such a pitty. I'm sure the libs and dips here will be drooling over this one. I have no doubt that they will be promoting the same here very quickly. After all, we don't want those poor criminals to be punished for their mis deeds. Thats just cruel.

Prisoners are being given phones in their cells to ring friends and family - and stop them feeling lonely.

Spokesman Mike Clarke insisted the in-cell phones were not a luxury, saying: "Contact with families can help reduce reoffending. Prisoners can ring their child before they go to bed at night. If they are feeling suicidal, they can ring family members late at night and chat to them."

But one Lowdham inmate said: "My cell is actually more luxurious than my first bedsit; clean, modern and with duvets, posters, rugs and a DVD player to make it even more homely."
