    They won't bring back capital punishment. Good thing too!

    Our stance on capital punishment is what separates us from the less civilised countries and regimes in the world.

    When I worked at the dole office in Harrogate, you'd have been surprised at how many signed their name with a cross (which I had to witness).

    Not many with the pen between their teeth, admittedly.

    Totally disagree.

    The drunken and animal behaviour of a large section of our 'civilised country' every evening certainly separates us from the rest though.

    We are awash with drug related crime, paedophiles, groomers of teenage girls and a haven for the worlds scum and extremists - in your book that's OK as our misguided high morals put us a cut above many other nations.

    Ticket to Singapore anyone ?

    Well I agree with bringing it back where there is cast iron evidence.
    There are far too many people living off our taxes protected by those vegetables called politicians sitting in a different country with their hands up the arses of British law makers telling us how to protect terrorists and the like.
    That's a different argument I know but hand in hand with CP if it was re-introduced just maybe we could see a better way.
    Alternatively why don't we ship em to Australia on a one way... Ah cos they now protect their Borders..damn. Well an island in the artic circle will do, dump em there (all convicted terrorists and murderers) and let the feckers fend for themselves. No tv's, snooker tables, drugs or liberties they removed from their victims...
    We must remember the victims here, and only when one of us lose someone close to crime will we really understand how we will feel.

    The way it is now - it's a travesty!!!!!!

    A poll in The Sun shows 84% in favour of bringing it back.

    No chance.

    Only whining minorities hold any sway with government.

    Well done Arthur - all that sneering bravado would become a brown mess on the floor when the judge puts his black cap on

    Levi Bellfield would be no more No appeals sitting on death-row for years,chinese style instant justice,we need a modern-day pierrepoint



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    I would use a bungee rope too so it would take longer to snuff it and on the floor I would have lots of spikes for them to appreciate too before they are no longer with us

    Problem IS ... each time I try - and I've already tried 3 times unsuccessfully - to sign the petition in accordance with the 'fields' required, I'm confronted by the jumbled-up anti-spam code which it's seemingly obligatory to unscramble. Wouldn't have thought my eyesight was THAT bad!
