Everybody thought that Somebody would do it, but Nobody realized that Nobody would do it. So consequently Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done in the first place !
The old un's are always the best.! Well thats what i tell the wife lol

I think you will find that under EU Law and the Human Rights Act, This is actually an not permitted.

You can not sentence someone to such a heinous Punishment, without a Review of an early release, as it will be inhuman and degrading to impose such a Punishment............

Think I'd rather go to death row than watch a week of Eastenders.

How do you "degrade" a murderer?
What lower status is available?

I can see where you've got mixed up there. The punishment I awarded is a fixed term, not whole life, and therefore not affected by the latest carefully thought out ruling from Europe ..... it's just that after a week you'd think it had been the whole of your life.
