Outspoken Oasis guitarist Noel Gallagher is considering running for Prime Minister in the next British general election - and his campaign would be based on bringing back capital punishment. The Live Forever star believes a hard stance needs to be taken to keep criminals in line.

He says, "I might stand for election myself, to be honest. I've worked this out and I reckon I could sort out the country in a year and a half. I'd definitely bring back hanging - that's for starters. All these violent offenders - you get convicted three times by three separate juries then you're going to the gallows.

"If by any off-chance some evidence comes up that you might have been innocent and could prove it beyond reasonable doubt, then your next of kin gets £500,000. Vote for me.

"The streets would be a lot safer and I could sort public transport out - half a year, that would take."
