I think Ken Clarke has got it totally and utterley wrong.
Burglary is not a low-level crime and all burglars deserve a custodial sentence.
People who should not go to prison are those who commit "white-collar" crimes - non-payment of council tax, tax-evasion, crimes to do with small amounts of money (what is a small amount I hear you ask).
These people should have their assets taken away from them, as well as doing meaningful community service.
People from overseas who commit crimes should be deported back to their own country to serve their sentence, not here at our expense.
Longer sentences should also be imposed for serious crimes.
Prisons should be so awful (not with sadistic warders) that people really do not want to return there.
