Ed Milliband has rightly called for Ken Clarke to be sacked as Justice Secretary quite how David Cameron could appoint such an incompetent fool be Justice Secretary is beyond me. Ken Clarke has been a constant failure in just about every role he has had in government and should have been out to pasture a long time ago. 15 Months is far too short a time for any sort of rape and the suggestion that it would encourage people to plead guilty is ridiculous as you would end up with the horrible situation of some people pleading guilty to a crime they have not committed. It would be as bad as the unjust plea bargaining you get in the American justice system. This is jsut another part of the dumbing down of Justice to save money highly immoral. This comment from baker 123456 sums it up nicely “The role of a politician is to protect the people they represent...letting violent criminals off with smaller sentences because they 'admit' it is absurd.
Note to politicians..I do not feel protected!!!”
