Voting deadline: January 2199
Description[?]:
On entering Downing Street, the Iron Lady declared 'Where there is darkness, let us spread light!' We argue that there are few darker places than Vanuku prisons, and fewer darker situations than being unable to understand and function in society through lack of education. The SDA believes that by educating our prisoners, we can reduce their re-offending rates, and allow them to take more productive positions in society upon release. |
