There is good evidence that medical research on animals is not always conclusive in its effects on humans. One good example is Thalodomide which was tested on animals and declared safe for use on humans with disastrous consequences.
There is a large number of prisoners serving life sentences who will languish at Her Majesty's pleasure for the rest of their lives. Should these people, men and women, be used for medical research thus giving something back to society.

I am well aware of the use of prisoners in the USA and also of inmates of concentration camps in Nazi Germany. There is a difference.
The inmates of the concentration camps were innocent citizens, guilty of no crimes. The inmates in the USA were convicted criminals.
