Rejected petition Re-instate the death penalty for Treason

In a time where terror attacks become more common across Europe, we require a new form of deterrent. I put forward that the death penalty be used for those committing treason against the Crown and our Nation. We must be severe consequences for terrorists and the collaborators who support them.

More details

Execution should be at low cost to the tax payer even if this may not be the most humane option. I personally put forward execution by firing squad.
