Rejected petition If criminals have been sentenced life imprisonment it should be for their whole life.

More details

I think the government should make criminals who have done extreme crimes and have been sentenced life imprisonment should be in prison for their whole life until they are too old and need to go into care. Unlike now, when prisoners don't stay in all their life.
