THREE in four Brits want all foreign criminals deported, a poll shows.
Two-thirds back building mega-jails on remote Scottish islands to deal with prison overcrowding.
Nine in ten would rather new prisons be built than see softer sentences.
And 77 per cent want courts open longer to deal with the backlog of cases.
The same number back building temporary “Nightingale-style” prisons.
Julian Gallie, from Merlin Strategy — who carried out polling for campaign group Crush Crime — said: ““There is overwhelming public support for a tougher stance on crime.
“There is a desire for the government to deal with a justice system the country do not think is working.
“Options including nightingale prisons and even deporting all foreign criminals gain overwhelming support.”
Reform MP Sarah Pochin said: “It’s no surprise the public support the need for urgent action to fix the crisis in our prison system.”
