Rejected petition Reinstate Capital Punishment

We, the undersigned, Petition the Government to reinstate the death penalty

More details

We, the undersigned, believe that serious crimes, such as Child Murder or the Murder of Emergency Services workers whilst on duty, should carry the death penalty.
Victims and their families face lifelong suffering and anyone who perpetrates such heinous crimes should not spend the remainder of their non-rehabilitable lives in prison, supported by hardworking taxpayers money.
