United Kingdom prison population
The United Kingdom has one of the highest rates of incarceration in Western Europe: In 2005 an average of 139 people in every 100,000 were in prison (although this is far short of the 714 per 100,000 in the United States).Roy Walmsley, World Prison Population List (6th Ed), 2005
