No. You can get life imprisonment. A life sentence will come with a minimum term before you're
considered for parole but the parole board isn't mandated to grant it. There are also several prisoners currently serving whole life terms in the UK:

We can keep someone in prison until they die. Three people were imprisoned under such terms last year.

I once posted on here that if we cannot string them by there necks then we should put them in a cell and never let them mix with other prisoners, never ever let them out and only feed them what they need to stay alive. I was told we cannot do that as its against there human rights and would be classed as a form of torture

I would think you would want them to be mixed with other prisoners. Incidentally long periods of isolation is torture. A whole life of it would be pretty sadistic.
