Chemical castration is the only suitable for solution for paedophiles in Britain, according to Conservative MP Andrea Jenkyns.
The Tory MP spoke in the wake of notorious sex offender Gary Glitter being sent back to jail one month after his release.
The disgraced singer was released from prison last month after serving eight years of his 16-year sentence.
Speaking on GB News, Jenkyns told Dan Wootton that there is only one solution worthy for child sex offenders.

She said: “To me, they are the lowest of the low, paedophiles. There’s only one thing for them, the chop.
“They do this in other countries such as Ukraine, many states in the US and the Czech Republic.
“I think it definitely would be popular, I’d go a stage further too, child killers, I think they should get the lethal injection. For me, they don’t deserve to breathe.
“As British taxpayers, why should we be paying a penny towards this?”
Gary Glitter has broken his bail conditionsGB NewsIt comes after a survivor of child abuse launched a petition to prevent abusers being removed from the sex offenders register.
The petition creator said Gary Glitter’s recall to prison “proves that paedophiles cannot be rehabilitated”.
Laura Stewart, from Bournemouth, Dorset, was abused as a child and her attacker served 17 months in prison after being convicted of six counts of sexual assault.
He has since been removed from the sex offenders register.
Now Stewart has launched a petition on the Parliament website calling for the right to apply to be removed from the register after 15 years be cancelled.
The 39-year-old says that the case of Gary Glitter shows that sex offenders cannot be rehabilitated.
The 78-year-old, who had a string of chart hits in the 1970s, had been freed in February after being jailed in 2015 for sexually abusing three schoolgirls.
He was automatically released from HMP The Verne – a low-security, category C jail in Portland, Dorset – following eight years behind bars, having served half of his 16-year, fixed-term, determinate sentence.
A Home Office spokesman said: “The UK has some of the toughest powers in the world to deal with sex offenders.
“Registered sex offenders are required to notify their personal details to the police annually or whether they change, and those subject to these requirements for life are only able to seek a review after 15 years.
“Sex offenders who continue to pose a risk will remain on the register and will do so for life if necessary.”
