Many victims of rape never recover fully and their lives are often never the same after such an ordeal. Some children have been born of rape.

We want the government to reinstate capital punishment for rapists, serial rapists and also those who commit a sexual assault on a man, woman or child. The cost of prison per head per year is a taxpayer burden and we have seen time and time again offenders repeat their heinous acts on unsuspecting victims. Rape is being weaponised in the uk so it must be met with severe punishment. We want this to be dealt with accordingly.
