We might be hamstrung by the anti-slavery ruling on this front however. Countries apparently don't have to follow ECHR guidelines, as we didn't in maybe 2010 when we rejected giving the vote to prisoners.
I'm of the opinion, that if you've been found guilty of committing a crime, where a custodial sentence is handed out, then any privileges, such as voting, access to social media etc, should be removed and not given back until a period of rehabilitation has been carried out in the community.
I'm also of the opinion that the Schengen agreement was the worst thing ever for Europe. Free and unrestricted movement. Great for immigrants!
