The Mail was shocked to discover that prisoners work in McDonald’s – only 17 takeaways you need

What a wonderful initiative by McDonalds. Helping to rehabilitate offenders and give them employment prospects, which is the best means of preventing re-offending. I knew Timpsons did this, so great to see other employers taking it up too.

The most alarming thing about this is the presumption the readers should be outraged by the idea of rehabilitation… A window into a certain way of thinking https://t.co/kyBrkWG7Hw

Having employment is one of the main ways to reduce reoffending.
Less crime (so fewer victims, cost to society, police time and money, costs of going through the courts), businesses fill labour gaps and the treasury raises more tax revenue. Why are some people against this?

Yeah it’s a) to build their new, crime-free life outside of prison b) low risk prisoners on day release and so therefore c) not going to be Charles Bronson handing you your McNugget Happy Meal. https://t.co/4xVRjr8hGE

You’re saying they were successfully rehabilitated into society?
Cool.

Excellent effort from Macdonald’s to support prisoners in their rehabilitation which cuts crime. Only worrying thing here is the Mail journalists skulking after women. If you’re really keen to keep people safe perhaps you could offer work placements too https://t.co/pq6Qpjy9UG

Surely even the hardcore Mail readers can’t take exception to this? Remember that the overwhelming majority of prisoners are released at some point – you want them rehabilitated when they are.

Fixed the headline for you “person who may have made mistakes in life try’s to better themselves but gets followed around by “journalists” trying to create clickbait” if a man followed a woman home from work for 40 minutes you’d be screaming from the rooftops, stop it @MailOnline https://t.co/r9LEwq1lpE

And finally, this.
Yeah, who wants to be served food by rehabilitating prisoners when you could give them entire newspaper columns instead. pic.twitter.com/ICDdWn75Lj
