The abolition of capital punishment in England was due to a shift in social attitudes towards the death penalty, this change in attitude is thought to have been greatly influenced by the heavy losses experienced through the World Wars. Towards the mid 1900s, the frequency of people being sentenced to death was extremely low, to the point that eventually, Parliament held a vote and due to a large majority in favour, the abolition was passed.
