UK Parliament Petitions

Write off all Plan 1 student loans after 25 years, not when someone turns 65

We think that the Plan 1 student loan rules are deeply unfair. If someone started university after Sep 2006, and debt is wiped after 25 years. Start just weeks earlier, and you're trapped paying until age 65. We call on the government to st

Launch a public inquiry into the failures of HS2

Launch a public inquiry with statutory responsibility to hold to account anyone responsible for the costs on UK taxpayers due to HS2. The inquiry should look at ways to hold accountable those responsible for what we believe has been one of

Fund a veterinary service for pets so people don’t have to pay vet fees

I think the Government should fund a veterinary service for pets so people don’t have to pay vet bills. Why do humans not have to pay for medical care when they use it, under the NHS, but we have to pay for our animals to get treatment?

Allow electric e-scooters to be able to ride on pavements and roads

I don't understand why Parliament have made this rule, I think e-scooters, bikes and other e modes of transport are a good thing.

New housing developments to be primary residences to minimise environmental harm

We call for a statutory requirement that all new housing quotas be allocated exclusively for primary residences, with restrictions preventing these homes from being sold or used as second homes for at least 25 years.

We call for the Government to hold an open and transparent inquiry on the UK’s proposal to transfer sovereignty over the Chagos Islands to Mauritius before carrying it out.

Review transparency of pet food labelling rules so consumers can make informed choices. Manufacturers should disclose individual ingredients, the proportion and origin of key ingredients, standardised nutritional information, and notify cus

Recognise Israeli Driving Licences as Exchangeable in the UK

We ask the UK Government to review Israeli driving licence standards and, if comparable, add Israel to the list of designated countries whose licences can be exchanged for a UK licence without requiring a practical test, including exploring

Remove the ‘right to roam’ status applicable to domesticated cats

We feel it is now time to end the 'right to roam' for cats. Cats can have a serious impact on wildlife. A study published in 2022 estimated that cats kill 160 to 270 million animals every year, 25% of them are birds.

Changes of inspections for Early Years including how grading is given.

We want the government to review how Ofsted conducts inspections, as well as how the results of inspections can unfairly impact early years education providers. We think that providers should have the opportunity to act on recommendations b

Keep the 5-year pathway for all legal immigrants to apply for ILR

The Government should stop its plans to change the 5-year pathway for legal immigrants to apply for Indefinite Leave to Remain, potentially including immigrants who are already living and working in the UK and have already been on the pathw

Require All Food Delivery Motorcycle Riders to Hold a Full Motorcycle Licence

We, the undersigned, call upon the Government to introduce legislation requiring all motorcycle and moped delivery riders to hold a full, valid motorcycle licence before being permitted to work in the food delivery industry.

Review evidence and fund addition of Fabry disease to the newborn screening test

Provide funding to add Fabry disease to the newborn screening programme via the existing heel-prick test. Early detection could allow faster treatment and help identify affected families. Review the evidence and begin a process of funding t

Fund free hospital parking in England for all patients

We would like the government to bring England inline with Scotland and Wales and fund free hospital parking for all patients at NHS hospitals. It's an extra cost paid by patients or those visiting loved ones, and we think it is unfair for p

Ban greyhound racing in England

We believe greyhounds deserve protection, not exploitation for profit. Greyhound racing causes injuries and deaths to dogs every year. Wales has committed to banning the sport and Scotland is ending it.

Require & fund healthcare services prior to building housing developments

We believe combined cumulative impacts of housing developments on healthcare services are not being adequately assessed despite requirements under the NPPF. We believe infrastructure improvements must precede new housing developments, and d

End the tax threshold freeze to stop potentially pushing families into poverty

1. Legislate that, from April 2031, all income tax thresholds will rise automatically each year in line with CPI inflation or average wages (whichever is higher). 2. Apply a one-off sharp upward correction in 2031 to restore the real va

Keep B1 English for Skilled Worker visa holders; B2 only for new applicants

We want the Government to keep the current B1 English requirement for Skilled Worker visa holders already in the UK and ensure the new B2 requirement applies only to future applicants.

Review endometriosis treatment options and communication of these to patients

In my experience, endometriosis and the treatment available for it is not properly explained to patients. I want the government to fund a review of the two most common treatments, ablation and excision, and for options to be properly explai

Review COVID and RSV vaccine eligibility for preterm children

We call on the Government to review eligibility for COVID-19 and RSV immunisation to include children born extremely premature (under 28 weeks), particularly those diagnosed with chronic lung disease of prematurity.

Mandate neutering of free roaming pet Cats

Many cats live outdoors unneutered, making it difficult to trace ownership or determine whether a cat has been lost or abandoned. This lack of identification can leave cats vulnerable to neglect, suffering, and uncontrolled breeding.

Fund and require routine cervical screening every 2 yrs

Reduce the wait time between cervical screening, including for possible cancer, by requiring routine testing every 2 years, fully funded. They are currently every 5 years after being at 3 years for a while, which I believe could be extremel

Give patients a right to receive a medical second opinion

We call on the Government to introduce legislation giving patients a clear legal right to receive a second medical opinion within the NHS, without fear of refusal, delay, or negative impact on their ongoing care.

Change the burden of proof in the Family Courts

I want the government to change the law so that the burden of proof in the Family Courts changes from a 'balance of probabilities' to 'beyond reasonable doubt'. Especially when cases may involve the loss of contact between a child and their

Ban UK companies shipping and insuring all Russian Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG)

Russia is helping finance its illegal invasion of Ukraine by oil and gas exports, including LNG. The UK sanctions all imports of Russian oil and gas. It also sanctions the shipping and insurance of Russian oil sold above a cap. It must now
