Being back the death penalty for extreme crimes.

Rejected 9 signatures

What the petition asks

To bring back the death penalty for extreme crimes such as murder, rape, human trafficking, terrorism and paedophilia!

It would make people think twice about committing these heinous crimes. It would also free up a lot of space in the prisons throughout the United Kingdom. (Which are 98% full). This will drastically increase the safety of the streets in the United Kingdom. It will also relieve the burden of the taxpayer having to keep these monsters in prison which will result in more funds going towards other important things such as OUR homeless and OUR ex military veterans.
