Rejected petition Reintroduce the death penalty for child murder & terrorism etc.

More details

Reintroduce the death penalty in the UK for the following crimes: armed robbery, rape, crimes related to paedophilia, terrorism, child murder, child rape, treason, child abuse & kidnapping.

Knowing that there is a death penalty in force it will make the criminals think twice about what they are doing and could reduce these type of crimes significantly and keep those who do commit awful crimes of our street and sending each disgusting criminals to prison will cost us taxpayers £38,000 per year
