This week I spoke in favour of the governments Counter-Terrorism and Sentencing Bill.
The Bill will ensure that the sentences served by terrorists reflect the severity of offending and will strengthen the tools for monitoring them in the community.
The brutal murder of Jack Merritt, 25, and Saskia Jones, 23, who worked to unite communities, by those who wish to divide us should never have anything other than the full force of the law thrown at them.
But is also important to remember that those who commit such heinous acts do so in their name and their name only.
We passed emergency legislation in February in response to these attacks, so this Bill is the second part of the Government's response to these awful crimes, aiming to ensure that serious and dangerous terrorism offenders will spend longer in custody, properly reflecting the seriousness of the offences they have committed.
