A government report reckons most women prisoners should be spared jail and only the most dangerous ones locked up. Women's prisons should be closed and the likes of Rose West held in homely custody units near their kids. Of course it could be the answer to our current prisons crisis - think of all those extra jail places that could be used to bang up blokes. But is it fair? I mean, if women really want equality, shouldn't they face the same chance of ending up in the slammer as us fellas? (This weeks panel: Anne Diamond & Ed Vaizey with special guest Robert Bathurst)

  • Merit of the crime, not gender, should determine the prison sentence. Appropriate punishment for the crime - excellent.

  • Crime is a crime regardless of age, race or sex.

  • That ed Person is such a mangina

  • @PetitionAgainstAbuse

    You NEED TO get your head out of your ass!!!!!!!!!!

  • Thin of How many CHILDREN are affected by this!!! That is NOT RIGHT!!!!

  • And women want eqaulite.

  • You can twist Scripture to say whatever you want it to say, but in the end, the truth always comes out. Turn the other cheek, give to him who takes from you, be gentle to everyone and forgive those who hurt you 70 times 7 times. "Thou shalt not kill" does not mean you may treat those who do kill with the same unkindness they have shown. Check out Matthew 5:38-48.

  • An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. Meaning that if one kills man, since he was created in the image of God, by man should he be killed.

    In other words, "Thou shalt not kill".

    Unless it is war, and your family is threatened.

  • An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind. Gandhi and Jesus said that, and they were right.

  • same issue with peadophiles if you go overkill on the sentencing they will only take steps to prevent their exposure like killing their victims. Knee jerk reactions are never good, i personally consider a life time of knowing you will never do anything of note, value or even in full autonomy much worse then a quick or even painful death
