Let the buggers claim, but at 150 quid a pop what's the point of fighting the courts.
Just give them 150 quid and then they cant vote, job done

well its an interesting debate (not the compensation).....theres an argument (not mine I hasten to add!) that says that, for example, if you aren't contributing to society why should you be allowed to vote.....so unemployed people would be excluded as well as crims. And bankers.

Oh and Land Rover drivers.

That would put the cat among the pigeons....

I never vote, too long winded to explain why here, so if I had been in prison could i still claim compensation for not being able to make my political statement by abstaining - rather than not being allowed to vote, being allowed to and choosing not too? If so can i commit a retrospective crime, get sentenced then get time off for all the time i have not been a criminal since?

if they have convicted a crime against society or broke the law and rules that our society have evolved and created and have been governed by, then why should they have the right to vote whilst serving their time , after all isnt prison a place where we send people for rehabilitation and to keep them away from society?
