Death penalty for child rapist and life imprisonment for anyone who's complicit

Petition Details

Implement the Death Penalty in UK law for child rapist and life imprisonment for anyone who's complicit. Children need to be protected and we feel that what is in place at the moment isn't adequate. We need a real deterrent to stop this evil. What's in place now don't work.

Additional Information

Child sexual abuse is one of the most evil & heinous crimes.
We urge the UK Government to implement the death penalty for child rapists. This measure would provide justice for victims and families while serving as a strong deterrent. Additionally, life imprisonment should be imposed on anyone complicit in these crimes, ensuring accountability for those who protect abusers.
