‘Deputy Crown Prince Expresses Satisfaction over His Meetings with British Senior Officials’ London Feb2015 (Saudi Press Agency)
Dear Home Secretary,
I understand that, like me, you personally oppose the death penalty. You may have seen that a majority of British voters now share this position, and that public support for capital punishment has fallen to its lowest level since records began.
Your rejection of capital punishment is of course consistent with the stance of the Government in which you serve, which has a “five year strategy” to abolish the death penalty worldwide.
