Rejected petition Ensure that Ryan Herbert & Brendan Harris serve their full minimum terms.

The murder of Sophie Lancaster in 2007 was not just an attack on a human being but an attack on a whole community of ‘alternative’ subcultures and leniency is inappropriate in order to send a strong message that such pointless hatred is unacceptable in our society

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

The responsibility for release on licence or parole in individual cases rests ultimately with the Secretary of State for Justice, to whom parole boards are answerable, and not the Government as a whole.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
