Rejected petition Reinstate Death Penalty

Hold a referendum for the British people to decide on whether the death penalty should be reinstated for serious crimes (child rape & murder) & terrorist acts

More details

Because of the lawlessness with the UK today e.g.. acid attacks on children. Murders rife in major cities & terrorist attacks happening frequently. Being sent to prison for life is no deterrent to these fanatics so if they commit these offences then they themselves should be denied their lives.
