Prison officer strike in the UK
Theodore Dalrymple is a retired prison doctor. He defends UK prison officers who recently went on a 24 hour strike. "The prison officers still have the esprit de corps that the Government has made it its business to destroy in the NHS [National Health Service], the police, the schools and the universities. ... The overcrowded conditions to which our gallant prison officers have drawn our attention are the consequence of two factors [inappropriate number of prisons and sentences that are too short] ... The solution to our prison crisis is to double the number of prisons at least, and to pass much longer sentences on those sent to prison. Without this, Britain will continue to be for millions of its citizens what it is now: a failed state. And, as usual, the prison officers have a far better grasp of all this than their supposed superiors."

Theodore Dalrymple on 'apartheid' in France's suburbs
British prison psychiatrist and author Theodore Dalrymple says the situation of young people in the French suburbs reminds him of that in South Africa in the times of Apartheid. He posits the bold thesis that France's new president Nicolas Sarkozy could change this. "Paradoxically, it's Sarkozy who offers hope to the people living in the banlieues. Segolene Royal would only have given them more of the same medicine that hasn't worked for decades. Firstly, Sarkozy has a reputation for being a hardliner when it comes to combating crime. For some reason this is regarded by left-wing intellectuals as evidence of an authoritarian stance and hostility towards the poor. In fact, the opposite is the case: the simple truth about crime in any country is that the poor are more likely to suffer its consequences - not the rich - and that the number of victims even in the areas worst affected is much greater than the number of criminals... Therefore it's closer to the truth to say that crime is the cause of the continued poverty rather than a consequence of it. Sarkozy has a better grasp of this fundamental truth than any other French politician."
