Would he not agree with me that it is very derogatory to apply the term "gaolbird" to a man who has been in prison only for his political convictions?
We have had a student of social science, we have had an ex-policeman, and perhaps it is time that the gaolbirds had a word to say for themselves.
I have discussed this with gaolbirds in their own homes.
If we do not spend money now in protecting these people, we shall have to spend it in keeping gaolbirds.
But it is, for me at any rate, something quite new to think of her as a potential gaolbird.
