Prisoners need shaming, says MP Wilders
Convicted criminals should be dressed in prison overalls and set to work in public, says independent far right MP Geert Wilders in today’s AD.
The embarrassment of being forced to do menial tasks, like weeding flower beds in parks, will make people think twice before committing crimes, he says. ‘That applies to everyone, not just Moroccans, but the feeling of shame is stronger in certain cultures,’ Wilders told the paper.
