Don't worry. I don't think they'll make it to the polling stations.
The newspaper said: "A cave-in by the Government could see about 70,000 inmates including murderers, rapists and paedophiles being allowed to cast ballots."
Why are people so worried? Do they think the politicians will start aiming for the murder vote? They'll promise to cut the VAT on shovels?
And as for the paedophile vote, again there's no need to worry. A lot of polling station are set up in schools and they're not allowed within 50-yards.
Your average paedophile won't like many politicians anyway. They'll be saying, "Hey! How come he gets to kiss babies?"
The newspaper went on to say: "The Prime Minister was 'exasperated' at losing the ban, but the Government had no choice."
I bet Cameron was upset. It would've been a great Tory plan. Cut benefits, make the poor turn to crime and send the poor to jail where they can't vote. The next election would be a Tory landslide.
We should all get over it. It won't make a difference, most prisoners like most non-prisoners, won't vote and it won't swing elections. I just wish they let the prisoners campaign a little harder first. I wanted to see prisoner suffragettes. They'd already be chained to some bars.
