A serving soldier has been attacked and finished off in London to the cries of Allah Wallah.
Meanwhile, The Foreign Secretary Hague is still suggesting sending in Britain to bring terrorists to power in Syria.
Treason?

another anachronism keith, the same names always appeared in the punishment book at schools.
no deterrent and only had appeal for some very creepy teachers.

would result in more murderers getting off keith.
imagine yourself on a jury with all the cobblers about what is inadmissable or not, very difficult to give the thumbs down when all the legal eagles play their games.
with a life sentence wrong decisions can be reversed.

Howard
Hopefully at the discretions of the judges to sentencing ,
but some cases are 100 %
Levi Belfield being one of them ,the rope would save the taxpayers around £15000 a week .

keith
i have served on a jury at the old bailey, admittedly only on an armed robbery case.
us jurors were sent in and dragged back many times over the 6 weeks, i was happy to give a guilty verdict on 5 of the 7 defendants because i knew that if we had been "tricked" there was a good chance of more evidence coming to light at an appeal.

So if you were on the Ian Brady murders case,
And on all the evidence, tapes witness statements, and all
Would you have been happy to hang them instead of giving them life ,with sky TV ?

Keith, corporal punishment is not capital punishment.
I'm not aware of UKIP campaigning for the death sentence.
UKIP say life should be life, if convicted for life.

I am with you Keith (B)
The death penalty should be available to the courts for cases like Brady where there is absolutely no doubt about guilt.
As for the Woolwich monsters. They clearly got what they wanted, a load of publicity and will get more when they go to trial and, quite simply, did not care if they died or not. There is no punishment sufficient for them. Life in the deepest darkest dungeon living on a little bread, water and lots of pork being b******* every day is all they deserve.

I believe that in exceptional cases such as West and Brady, an injection behind closed doors is appropriate and a better deterrent to others.
I believe judges should be retired much earlier and replaced with ones that have better values than patting paedophiles on the head and making them buy their victim a bicycle.
And prisons should be a place for offenders to reflect on the value of life and property and not be just a nice comfy pad to while away their often puny sentence.

I agree with Barry where there should be an option open to the judge to hang certain murderers where there is absolutely no doubt of their guilt.
As to animals like last night it is time to set up our own style Guantanamo Bay detention camp, put the bast---s like them in a place like that and let them rot in chains. It is also time to tell the do gooders to get lost in their own little world.
I also have to ask why do we want to send home a young Muslim lad living in Kent who was here because members of his family where murdered by the Taliban, when he has got himself well educated and wants to give something back to the Country by being a teacher, yet animals like those who murdered a defenseless soldier have been allowed to stay in our Country unnoticed.

Spot on GaryC and Harry, I'm glad you aren't worried about upsetting the hand-wringers.

Murder Free
Let's introduce Sharia Law
we all know 'twould make sense
cast liberty in vengeance's maw
and stop sitting on the fence
let us chop off hands
and gouge out eyes
as is done in far off lands
and to justice wave bye-byes
miscreants, once, here we hanged
women, children and a pig
its about time the gibbet-drum was banged
and strangers danced the danglers' jig
For certain, we can all recall
just how it used to be
how satisfied we were withal
and soon were Murder-free
So, its not for womankind nor oil
dear brother Muslims hark
the one thing you have for which we toil
is to live as you do...in the dark
Ignorance is bliss, bliss is happiness, I am happy...to draw your attention to the possible connectivity in the foregoing.
