Luke Taylor

Liberal Democrat — Sutton and Cheam

Speaking in the House of Commons on 21 October 2025

Debate

Sentencing Bill

Contribution

The hon. and gallant Member speaks very strongly about this issue. There may be reticence to support his new clause because of the implications for rehabilitation, but he has spoken about the huge impact on families when a life is taken in that way. Can he give some reassurance about the balance between rehabilitating through custodial sentences, for example, and the lifelong impact on families of incidents that happen in a moment?
