That this House is disturbed to learn of the existence of an organisation which is concerned solely with the re-introduction of the death penalty; it believes that, whatever the arguments about deterrents, crime and the ethics of capital punishment, it cannot be healthy for a group of people to dedicate themselves to the return of hanging as their objective in life.

As Amendments to Mr Arthur Latham's proposed Motion (Those Longing for Hanging):

Mr Kenneth Warren

Mr Philip Goodhart

Mr Evelyn King

Mr Fred Silvester

Mr Robert Adley

Mr Tim Rathbone

Mr Patrick Wall
