In the week that UK unemployment rose again, it has emerged that up to 20,000 jobs are to be created inside prisons in England and Wales.

Prisoners would be paid below the minimum wage and some of their earnings would go to help victims of crime.

But critics say any new jobs should go to hard working people, not convicts.

Prison labor is slave labor. Fascist elements among military and intelligence units worldwide seek to imprison "dissidents" and other "undesirables" as criminals, and to enjoy the fruits of their enslavement.  Do not be deluded:  Nazi-style fascism is alive and well in the U.K., the U.S., Canada, Australia and throughout the industrialized world.  See "Gestapo USA" at http://VicLivingston.blogspot.com

Since it is not often provided as a fact, many people are unaware that the practice of the use of slave labor is enshrined in the U.S. Constitution in the 14th Amendment, which has come to be known as the amendment that freed the millions of formerly enslaved descendants of Africa, while at the same time detailing, within the below highlighted caveat, the means by which a citizen's freedom can be denied:

No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

You are incoherent, Hatter. What is your point?  Are you trying to say that the US Constitution SUPPORTS slavery?  Are you a paid troll who is trying to find some way to throw dirt on the US Constitution?  So that you can support the attempts of our new Global Kings and Barons to destroy the US Constitution and make their crimes legal?
