Mandatory life sentence for child sexual offenders

Closed 41 signatures

What the petition asks

I believe that people who have committed child sexual offences should receive mandatory life sentences and never be released from prison.
No matter the offence committed, we want all child sexual offenders to serve live in prison, to ensure they cannot commit another offence.
