Petition Action

Make "life in prison" MEAN "life in prison".

Additional Information

Simple really! Make the sentence, which logically should be binding, mean it.

I'm only 17 but surely it's pretty clear to the nation that life means until the prisoner dies? 3 life sentences? Makes no sense.

We're told it's too expensive to do so; well cut back on things then - bread and water. But that's not what this petition is about.

Support what, logically, shouldn't even need to be discussed.
