#1 Presumably they will tag the guy who shot a burglar and was then sent to prison.And in related news there is a sudden hacksaw shortage in Britain.

#2 Only if the satellites were armed with a lay-ser could this be considered better than prison.

#3 Rex - you're spot on mate. I think they should be (a) locked up for life - real life, in a custom 5,000 'seater' prison so they can't infect anyone else, or (b) shoot them.

As you're not allowed to defend yourself in this country, it's no wonder that violent crime and anti-social behaviour is up 25% (we really need to understand the root causes of crime after all...)

Typically, this dumb-ass government adds on sex offenders (paedophiles are everywhere in the UK donchaknow?) and domestic violence offenders (to satisfy the femi-Nazis in the labour party). But then Blunkett is a wanker with this "don't say anything nasty about Islam" law he's shafting us with.

Yes, I am annoyed about all this...

#5 Tony - much as I like England, have you considered moving to the U.S.?

It's not like the language would be all that hard to learn.... :-p
