Rejected petition Capital Punishment - BRING IT BACK!!

More details

This is a petition to convince the UK government to restore capital punishment. If you take a life through a malicious act with intent such as murder or any other serious crimes (rape, child abuse) your life should be taken as punishment this would be a punishment that fits the crime committed as well as a deterrent. This would save so much space in prisons and money.
