What the petition asks

Our prisons are already full to breaking point and something needs to be done. Anyone beaking the law in this country that is reported to Court, from motoring offenses, to drunken and disordererly, be immediately sent to their homeland and legally barred from ever re entering.
The number of foreign nationals in the UK has doubled, and now represents over 14% of total inmate population.
Fraudsters from the former Bloc country Romania are responsible for a huge 92% of all ATM machine crimes.
In 2013 alone, there were 807 Polish inmates in our Prisons, costing the British taxpayer more than £90 million every year, an average of £38,000 per prisoner.
We have a deficit to cut, this would be a great start. Thankyou
