Rejected petition Bring a Death-Penatly to British Law

More details

From what I've just seen broadcasted on the news about a solider being stabbed to death on the streets of London has bought to my attention that the current British-Law MUST change and fast, this slap on the wrist and being sent down for half of their original sentence and told not to be naughty... is simply not working and is costing us money which we should NOT have to pay, especially murders! If that was another country such as America... The killers of our hero would have been sentenced to death!

If the law was to be changed it would soon change people's mind about striking without thinking.
