For me the 100% certainty factor in a lot of cases is what worries me and there have been many proven miscarriages of justice to make me not want the death penalty back.
I could be persuaded to go along with it for the above crimes I mentioned above.
I am in the minority I know, as most people I know would vote to bring the death penalty back and poll after poll suggests the majority is with them.
However, I cannot see in my lifetime any Govt prepared to take the miscarriages of justice risks and therefore bringing the death penalty back in the UK.

I agree with your post, and am against the death penalty being brought back.
