A former Ukip politician has demanded the death penalty be introduced – for suicide bombers.
Janice Atkinson, who stood for Ukip in Folkstone and Hythe before becoming an independent politician, made the comments following the Manchester terror attack which claimed 22 lives on Monday night.
She is currently an independent elected MEP for the South East of England.

‘But there is one simple step which we can take now: we must bring back the death penalty.
