Petition Introduce UK Three strikes law.

More details

Three strikes laws will require the courts to hand down a mandatory and extended period of incarceration to persons who have been convicted of a serious criminal offense on three or more separate occasions.

Not only will this deter criminals from committing future offenses, it will free up prison space for the people who deserve these longer sentences and who genuinely need removing from the public.

Please consider implementing this for the United Kingdom.
