Bring Back the Death Penalty for Certain Crimes
In light of the changing nature of British society, the death penalty should be reintroduced for certain crimes, including:
1. Mass murder.
3. Murder of a child.
3. Mass stabbings and machete attacks.
4. Racially-aggravated sex attacks.
Reintroducing the death penalty is desirable for two reasons:
1. Restorative justice. Current sentencing guidelines are too lenient.
2. Deterrent effect.
