Referendum on restoring the Death Penalty!
We call on the Government to hold a referendum on restoring the death penalty for murderers.
We question why taxpayers should pay to keep convicted murderers in prison. We believe that justice betrayed is justice denied.
The death penalty was abolished in the 1960s.
The last free vote in Parliament was in the 1990s.
We believe it is time the people of our country had their say.
Hold a referendum on restoring the Death Penalty!
