Slightly disagree
Yes, provided a strict psychological evaluation shows they are no longer a threat to society
The Conservative party might not be entirely opposed to the idea of parole eligibility for first-degree murder convicts if a strict psychological evaluation shows they are no longer a threat to society. However, their general stance on being tough on crime and supporting longer sentences for serious offenses makes it less likely that they would strongly agree with this answer.
