Matthew's Journal

In some ways maybe we should. If it were put to the public the death penalty would be reinstated; however, in parliament there is no way that would get a majority regardless of the party politics also going on. I don't want to disenfranchise people but I do think that subjecting everyone to a local barrier before they arive at Westminster is quite a good idea. People can express their views by voting for these smaller parties that act more like pressure groups and if the larger parties want their votes they have to adapt to what the public wants.
