Change the sentencing and life time sex offender listing for any offence.

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

Anyone found with explicit images of babies and children should be added to the offender list for life. They will always be a danger. Harder sentencing for those who arrange to abuse a child. Harder sentencing for those who partake in the abuse of a child.
Because parliament has a responsibility to our children, the next generation, of safety and the knowledge if someone was to harm them, share videos of their abuse, contact them in online chats that the courts would come down hard on these individuals in terms of sentencing and being registered on the sex offenders list for life. Anyone with violent abuse videos of a baby should not be removed after 5 years. They are a danger to all children and should never be allowed to work with children.
