I think I understand where they are coming from but let's not pretend that dads in prison doesn't also have a massive effect on the development of their children (or not!). In some ways the only people who should be in prison are the most violent and who are a danger to the public but we don't have a great range of alternatives for someone who e.g. steals a large amount of money but is not dangerous to the public per-se.

It also seems like 'scope creep', that they'd be better off as more of a single-issue party. My impression is that's how it's viewed by voters (those they have) anyway - I don't think Green party support is a good reflection of 'women out of prison' support.
