According to the UK Green Party website the Green Party will try to achieve the following if they gain power at the 2010 general election:

CJ600 There is no place for capital punishment in a criminal justice system which is compassionate, just and respectful of human rights. No country or state should retain the death penalty in its criminal justice system.

The Green Party advocates the abolition of the death penalty in all countries, and will use its influence in support of instruments and campaigns at national and international level which seek its global abolition.

I would be interested to hear both positive and negative views on UK Green Party’s The Death Penalty policies in the comments below?
