protest against the conservative press and sensationalist right leads to reject the plan, despite the support of the Lib Dems
, David Cameron, Kenneth Clarke was forced to abandon all plans for reductions of 50% penalty for guilty pleas, after an outcry from the conservative right and the tabloids.
Cameron will announce the change in a press conference in Downing Street Tuesday, when the Department of Justice publishes its Bill of Justice with proposals for tougher sentences in the community and the introduction payment by results system to reduce prisoner recidivism.
following a protest, Cameron Clarke forced to withdraw reduction plans for offenders. There has been speculation that Clarke has maintained a 50% discount for certain offenses, but the Attorney General has lost the battle.
Cameron decided that the reduced sentences in exchange for guilty pleas could affect its attachment to the meaning of the sentence.
The current discount is a third party, and an extension up to 50% would have been a significant decline in the prison population. The decision means that the Department of Justice has to find up to 100 million pounds in additional savings over four years from other parts of your budget. Most are from a new compression on probation.
The Treasury Department said it is ready to see the Department of Justice to change the speed at which you will find the savings. No official confirmation was available from Downing Street, before a cabinet meeting on Tuesday and the press conference Cameron.
Issue 10argues that confidence in the criminal justice system is so low that it would be unable to sell a glass of sentences in exchange for guilty pleas. Cameron advisers told him that his party is losing its grip on the agenda of the order.
leadership of the Liberal Democratic Party, who promised to side with Clarke seems to have accepted defeat. A Lib Dem source said that 50% reduction was not a party policy. "We never said we would bring it in. We're not totally committed to it, and is not a great loss "

- initial proposal is expected to produce savings of £ 210 000 000 a year by reducing the demand for prison places by 6000. Justice Ministry officials estimated that this would reduce the record of 85,000 prisoners in England and Wales in 3000 when the next general election. Other proposals are expected on Tuesday include the elimination of the possibility of returning the courts accused in custody, which is unlikely to receive a prison sentence. This would save 1,300 prison places a year. Other proposals include the deportation of foreign prisoners more (500 seats), a new test release for those serving indeterminate sentences for public protection (300 to 600 seats) and the diversion of mentally ill prisoners in treatment services on health (650 prison places).
