Can Murderers Be Rehabilitated? The UK Death Penalty Debate

The question of whether murderers can be rehabilitated has long divided public opinion. In the UK, where the death penalty was abolished for all crimes in 1998 (with the last execution taking place in 1964), the debate occasionally resurfaces, often triggered by high-profile and shocking crimes. Some campaigners argue for its reinstatement, believing it would deter crime and deliver justice for victims’ families. Others insist that no one, not even the state, has the moral right to take a life.

A Nation on Edge: What You Need to Know About Labour’s Benefits Reform and the PIP Shake-Up

“Vouchers Are Not A Lifeline, They Are A Limitation. This move is discriminatory, removes choice, and reinforces stigma”.
Furthermore, vouchers could severely isolate individuals with non-visible or fluctuating disabilities who may already struggle to go outside, use public transport, or interact with others due to pain, fatigue, or anxiety. For example, someone with severe OCD, PTSD, or Crohn’s disease may rely on online retailers or niche services for survival, many of which may not accept government-issued vouchers.

Welfare Vote Sparks Outrage Amid Criticism of ‘Two-Tier’ PIP Plans

While reforming PIP to make it more compassionate and efficient is a valid goal, the current welfare vote signals a dangerous turn toward conditionality and restriction. The proposed “two-tier” approach risks further marginalising vulnerable people and failing to address the diverse spectrum of disability and illness in the UK. Without meaningful consultation, real investment, and a focus on dignity and independence, the government may not be reforming welfare, but dismantling it.
