Not for "Arson in her Majesty's ship yards" and "Piracy on the high sees."

Actually the Queen's real surname is Mountbatton, but she got all new-agey on Philip.

Regardless they're all Germans.

I honestly thought they got rid of all capital punishment.

I'd be shocked if they did, even if somebody started a fire in a dockyard/indulged in piracy were the old laws still in place. However, I don't think they are even technically allowed to consider it anymore.

Taffy is right and goes to the head of the class. Capital punishment for trason and piracy with violence, the last two capital offences, was abolished in 1998 under the Crime and Disorder Act.

In 1999 the UK signed sixth protocol of the European Convention of Human Rights which formally abrogates any right the state might have claimed to reintroduce any capital punishment.
