Does anyone in prison still get benefits? I somehow doubt it.

By law the council has to keep their tenancy open for sentences of less

Given they would only have to re-house them if they didn't, makes sense.
Although you could well be the type who thinks one punishment isn't
enough.

I assume warders would be taking them there and supervising them.

There are no warders in the UK prison service.

This from the one who constantly goes on about how sad it is when the
language use changes...
