Shadow Constitutional Affairs Secretary Oliver Heald: "People will find it distasteful that distant and unaccountable European institutions are trying to force Britain to give the likes of convicted muggers, burglars and murderers the same democratic say as their victims and law-abiding citizens."[1]
Gary Rosenfeldt, president of Victims of Violence (VOV) Canadian Centre For Missing Children, responding to Canada's 2002 Supreme Court decision in favor of prisoner voting. - "I find the decision to be morally repugnant and an insult to all victims of crime in Canada and to society as well.
