JUSTICE has been done and quite rightly that evil woman Rosemary West has been found guilty and sentenced to life imprisonment.

I wonder how many people like myself will resent having to pay for the upkeep of this evil woman?

I don't mind paying tax to support the health service or other such worthy projects, but to pay for the keep of wicked people like West is totally wrong.

If I had a choice I wouldn't pay a penny to keeping her alive.

If our MPs did their duty and represented their constituents then Rosemary West would have paid for her vile crimes by forfeiting her own life.

In East Lancashire only Nigel Evans, the Conservative MP for the Ribble Valley, actually represents the views of his constituents.

The Labour MPs in East Lancashire are against the death penalty. They are quite happy to keep alive people like Rosemary West and Myra Hindley.

If you think scum like West and Hindley should hang then at the next general election don't vote Labour.
