In a poll of nearly 3,000 offenders for the Ministry of Justice, many made candid admissions about their attitudes to law and order, including one in eight who said they got excitement from committing crime.

But the majority also displayed a reluctance to face up to their transgressions, with three quarters professing they “do not see myself as a real criminal” and more than six out of 10 insisting “most people would offend if they could get away with it”.
