From HMG: http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/YoungPeo.../TypesOfCrime/... "The maximum sentences for intent to supply drugs are... up to life in prison or an unlimited fine (or both) for a Class A drug" See the word *only* in Charles's post. There are a range of offences for which life imprisonment is available, but only murder for which a mandatory life sentence must be imposed. It seems that a determinate sentence may even be imposed for treason. Peter Correct - apologies to you both Patrick |
