Bring back Borstals! Top cop slams parents’ lack of discipline
The Daily TFormer Met Police Detective Peter Bleksley joins Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley to discuss if parents should be held criminally responsible for their children’s crimes.
Following the announcement of government plans to revamp parenting orders, Peter argues that more discipline is needed in modern parenting and that longer jail terms work as a deterrent for repeat offenders.
The Justice Secretary David Lammy revealed the plans to give courts extra powers to punish breaches of parenting order last week as part of efforts to prevent a repeat of the Southport murders, where the parents of triple killer Axel Rudakubana were castigated for failing to act on his erratic and violent behaviour.
