It really pissed me off how people don’t seem to realise that most crime is due to a failure of society and that if we give people prospects then crime will go down.

Preach. Harsh penalties with no rehabilitation and an uncaring system with no safety net?

If you can't get a job and can't eat without a job, who wouldn't do crime?

And in so doing, they have a criminal record that makes it harder to get jobs, leading to a vicious cycle where they're not employed due to a criminal record/recent imprisonment, and are forced to steal to survive, leading to another criminal record, etc.
