I can see this catching on as a source of cheap labour. Pay the prisoners peanuts and sack more expensive workers. If they then take the cash back off the prisoners it may make prisons self-funding. The newly unemployed will then need to steal to live and can then be banged up and made to join the scheme. Soon the whole of British industry will be able to out-compete China on wages and we'll have the governments much vaunted export lead, manufacturing recovery. Great stuff.

It was obvious to see the self worth it gave the prisoners and as a rehabilitation and cost cutting scheme making prisoners part fund their time in prison has to be the way to go.
I don't agree with them in place of existing jobs, but maybe some sort of small manufacturing or selling basic products, like cakes and bread as the Gordon Ramsay program showed.
