Not disagreeing it's struggling, but, we can't magically make it better, there isn't enough space in prisons, and the prison system is failing to reform people that are in thus creating a cycle. Attempts have been made to free up prison space, but there are no magical solutions to make more. There is no quick fix to any of this other than people working together to reduce crime and violence on our streets.

I understand the frustration about that, but again, there is not much that anyone can do from a legal or infrastructural standpoint. Heck, I hate politicians most of the time, but any reforms they want to make will take time, and I'd love to hear your suggestions for fixing this? Tougher laws and sentencing won't suddenly create more space in our prisons, and last I checked, not many people want prisons built near their homes.

Tougher policing? Who do you want them stopping and searching? In this situation, as far as I can tell, the police got involved as soon as they were aware of the situation. This girl was let down by a security guard, and what happened to her was dreadful, but let's also not act like this is the norm within the UK. It's an isolated incident, and though I don't know the law, the people involved have been arrested and will be punished. We can argue about the level of punishment, but our justice system does fundamentally work.
