Closed Reinstate the death penalty for child sexual offences

Closed on

We believe current punishments for child sexual offences are too weak and don't reflect the impact of these crimes. We want capital punishment to be reinstated. The children of the UK deserve to be safe and we believe people convicted of child sexual offences don't deserve to live.
