One of the theories that I have heard as to why the worst criminals are being freed to make room for "rioters" is that a message is being sent to any potential dissent once unpopular and damaging decisions are made in the next couple of months, starting with the abolition of the winter fuel allowance for most pensioners but also other decisions that will target the elderly, single people, the disabled and victims of domestic abuse and violence. Namely the most vulnerable people in society. As a result, civil unrest akin to the Poll Tax riots are expected so this move is being done in advance to dissuade dissenters furious at what is being done to said vulnerable groups who can't fight back for themselves.

Nah. It's being done to imprison British people and free violent savages.
