Closed petition Re-Introduce Capital Punishment

Closed on

We the undersigned ask the Government to reinstating the death penalty.

We the undersigned believe that serious crimes, such as child murder, and crimes such as murdering emergency services’ personnel whilst on duty, should carry the death penalty.

We believe people who commit the most heinous crimes against others should not be spending the rest of their lives behind prison bars whilst victims and the families of victims suffer.
