You go to London, you see a TV set in every cell and the sign up that all the officers must treat prisoners with dignity. What about your dedicated soldiers that have helped fight in Afghanistan and Iraq? They're living in tents and our soldiers are living in tents.

Demography is changing us as we are older societies, we're living longer. How the generations balance each other out, how that affects education and health care. ↗
