What's going to happen to everyone arrested?

So there have been 400 arrests. Courts are open longer and these idiots are been dealt with.
However, what will happen to them? I don't know much about the court system but I know there aren't enough places in prisons.
Will they get community service, fines etc

It obviously has to be tough to be a deterrent from others doing it. Will these people actually care if they have a criminal record?

I mean they just can't arrest everyone so how are they going to stop people rioting?

That BBC article - "fears of more protests". They really aren't "protests". What do they think they are protesting against? It's rioting, pure and simple.

They have made space.
Hopefully they'll lock them up and chuck away the key!

They'll turf out the others make way.

Wonder if the Rwanda plan could be resurrected for these people 🤔

Yep let's do it!

I was going to suggest Bibby Stockholm. I think it's not in use at the moment.

Or that.

Maybe we could stop locking innocent people up and process their perfectly legitimate asylum claims?!

That would free up some space for these rabid racist fuckwits currently embarrassing my country!

The early release scheme hasn’t started yet, it starts in September. Prisoners are currently having their sentences calculated to see who’s eligible. Not everyone is.
No one has been let out yet on early release.Theres probably about 7-800 spaces for emergencies , not sure exactly

They won't be all poor and on benefits, though people like to think they are, a Tory councillor's wife has been arrested for something she put on social media.
