The newly appointed deputy Conservative Party chairman, Lee Anderson, has stated his support for the return of the death penalty in the UK. Anderson, who is the Ashfield MP, was appointed by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak during the recent reshuffle. Anderson was a former Labour councillor before joining the Tory party and has been known for controversy since being elected in 2019, including criticizing food bank users and the England men’s football team for taking a knee in protest of racism.

In an interview with The Spectator magazine, Anderson stated his support for the death penalty, claiming that “nobody has ever committed a crime after being executed.” The death penalty for murder was permanently abolished in the UK in 1969 and for all crimes in 1998. The UK is also a signatory to the European Convention on Human Rights, which prohibits the restoration of the death penalty.

Anderson believes that execution should be used in cases where the perpetrators of heinous crimes, such as the murder of Lee Rigby, are clearly identified. Anderson also suggested that migrants arriving in Britain via small boats should be returned the same day to their point of origin on a Royal Navy frigate.

According to an expert on political party members, many Tories would agree with Anderson’s views on the death penalty, with a survey finding that 53% of 1,191 members surveyed agreed that “for some crimes, the death penalty is the most appropriate sentence.”

Although Anderson has faced criticism for his views, he finds that many voters agree with him, saying “if I say something that is supposedly outrageous in that place [the Commons], I get back to Ashfield on a Thursday, people will come out the shops and say, ‘You say what I’m thinking.'” Anderson has a number of supporters among his parliamentary colleagues, including Minister for children, families and wellbeing Claire Coutinho who states that “it’s really important that we have people who have lots of different opinions.”
