Rejected petition Opt out of Article 2 of the European Convention and reinstate the death penalty.

Opt out of Article 2 of the European Convention on Human Rights and reinstate the death penalty making it mandatory for child rapists and paedophiles.

More details

Child raping gangs are prolific in the United Kingdom with hundreds of offenders.
Paedophilia is also on the increase.
The perpetrators of these crimes are inhuman and imprisonment of such large numbers is impracticable.
Moreover, law-abiding citizens do not deserve to have these people amongst us so it is sensible to execute them so that they are neither a burden to the tax-payer nor a threat to civilised society.
