What the petition asks
I propose for life sentences in prison to mean proper life sentences in prison!! Not just life sentences but in fact all prison sentences. If you break the law you should do the punishment!! Life should mean life, 20 years should mean 20 years etc.
I'm fed up hearing people getting slaps on the wrist or people being allowed out on day release and absconding.
Time to put things right and make prisoners pay the price.
