The government finally conceded and mandatory life sentences for murderers are locked in. These cowards in power had no choice but to listen after207 of us kept the pressure on them. We forced their hand and now real justice has a chance.

This petition has been set-up as we want mandatory sentences for the following crimes.. 1. 10 years for carrying guns/knives (no early release) 2. 20 years for using guns/knives (no early release) 3. prisoners have no priveledges, (to deter crimes) 4. temporary curfews for all under 18\'s ( no more than 3 in a group after 7pm) until something more permanent can be organised 5. murderers get mandatory life sentences (no release) or hanging to be brought back. we are hoping by introducing the above there will be no more killings of teenagers and crime rates will drop because of the harsh sentences.

The momentum behind this demand is finally forcing the cowards in office to take notice. We are done watching our streets turn into war zones while these criminals walk free.

Whatever it takes to stop the knife crime. My son is scared to leave the house at night. Bring back serious punishments!

Bring back the death penalty for murderers. Why should my taxes pay to feed them for life?

10 years for carrying is spot on. If you carry a blade you intend to use it. No excuses.

About time we got some proper justice in this country. Sick of hearing about these kids getting killed and the people doing it get out in a few years.

The curfew idea is good but hard to enforce. Still, something needs to change because the current system is a joke.
