Prison invited a drag queen to perform for sex offenders to celebrate LGBT prisoners

[FunStork]

HMP Moorland ran an LGBT themed sports day featuring Pride flags and booked a drag queen to perform to inmates.

This was to celebrate the diversity of inmates, many of whom identify as LGBT.

More than half of the inmates are convicted sex offenders, many paedophiles.

I would prefer prisons to be more like the far eastern hellhole ones. Twenty plus men to a small room, one bucket and years of gruel and hard labour.

Far cheaper to run, actually a deterrant and as a bonus, fewer people being released (early or at all).

Sexual offenders get a particularly bad time.

It sounds wonderful.

It's worth asking if a local charity was behind the funding or providing people - I'd look at Rotherham
