According to the UK Independence Party website UKIP will try to achieve the following if they gain power at the 2010 general election:
Juvenile Crime. Up to 25% of young people committed an offence in 2006. UKIP rejects the notion that we should ‘hug a hoodie’, and would abolish the ineffective and token Anti Social Behaviour Orders (ASBOs).
UKIP regards the lack of youth centres and other outlets for legitimate activity as a problem that exacerbates the juvenile crime situation.
UKIP would give schools the choice of whether or not to use corporal punishment.
I would be interested to hear both positive and negative views on UK Independence Party’s Juvenile Crime policies in the comments below?
UKIP is on the right track here, but I think they need to be more in line with the BNP on this issue: Corporal punishment in general, not just in schools. Also, tougher remand homes and jails and finacial penalties, making the parents accountable for any damage caused, and victims paid out of public money, and paid in FULL by offenders or their parents.
