Because we want it, they will of course not give it to us. But if Labour offered us a referendum on the death penalty, we might vote for them, mightn't we?
If they offered us a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty, we might vote for them on that basis.
Or whether to withdraw from the EU altogether.
Why don't they just give us the stuff the Tories won't give us?
This sort of thing would happen in a rational world. What a shame that this country is not part of the rational universe.
Vote: Should the death penalty be re-introduced in some form, eg for the worst cases of murder?

THE VOICE OF REASON Solon, (born c. 630 BCE—died c. 560 BCE), Athenian statesman, known as one of the Seven Wise Men of Greece (the others were Chilon of Sparta, Thales of Miletus, Bias of Priene, Cleobulus of Lindos, Pittacus of Mytilene, and Periander of Corinth). Solon ended exclusive aristocratic control of the government, substituted a system of control by the wealthy, and introduced a new and more humane law code. He was also a noted poet.

I found this headline very encouraging.
Although support for capital punishment is down 25% since 1994, the figure is still holding up quite well - despite the fact that successive governments have refused to enact the clear wishes of the majority.
