Life should mean life.....
" the Court of Appeal backed the Government’s argument that “life should mean life” in the “most heinous cases”. Seven months ago the Strasbourg-based human rights court had said all convictions should be reviewed after 25 years regardless of the offences committed."Am glad that there appears to be some justice in the world....!

Re: Life should mean life.....
I felt exactly the same Jazziwoz.What's the point in putting someone who has murdered numerous people away for a few years. They have taken one or more lives away and that means to me theirs is not as it was beforehand. They should have no rights just like the poor people they have murdered.
I would love to see who these Judges are in the Strasbourg courts and give them a piece of my mind.

No Annie darlin' - emphatically not!!! there have been far too many miscarriages of justice to make a 'death' penulty safe, and besides which - we are far more civilised to contemplate the return of the death penulty.
