UK Parliament Petitions

Legalise UK Citizens copyright to their own likeness & bio-data

Introduce legislation to grant every UK citizen full ownership of their likeness, including their face, retina, voice and body data to ensure no system or company can replicate or use these without consent.

Make it a criminal offence to enter a domestic dwelling without permission

Make it a specific criminal offence for individuals or groups to enter someone's home without the home owner or legal tenant's permission.

Fund and implement A Universal Basic Income (UBI)

We believe that we are in an era of economic uncertainty, growing inequality, and job insecurity and it is time for Parliament to introduce a Universal Basic Income (UBI). Some Economists argue, UBI is not just a welfare measure, it is an i

Remove visa requirements for non-UK spouses of UK citizens to visit the UK

We urge the Government to remove visa requirements for non-UK spouses of British citizens when they come to visit the UK, such as for a short stay with family. We feel that the cost of visas for non-UK spouses often outweighs the cost of tr

Provide free school meals to all school children

I would like the Government to fund free and nutritious school meals to all children attending school. I believe that many school meals are expensive and of poor quality. Many students cannot leave school during lunchtime and have to eat wh

Mandate Social, Emotional, and Mental Health informed school behaviour policies

Set out guidelines and legally mandate SEMH-informed school behaviour policies. This should include replacing punitive discipline with early intervention, stopping exclusions which we see as punishing mental health struggles, enforcing trau

End the Use of Bearskin in the Kings Guard Headgear

The Ministry of Defence must find suitable faux-fur alternatives for the King's Guard headgear that fulfil the necessary criteria. Currently, the hats require Black Bear Skin, costing over £2000 each, making them both expensive and ethicall

Reinstate the NI Legacy Act protecting veterans from prosecution

Give veterans the same protection from prosecution as given to suspected IRA terrorists by Tony Blair's amnesty.

Require a full and independent enquiry before any hospital job cuts

We call on the UK Government to immediately halt any existing consultations on hospital job cuts, such as those taking place in Cornwall, and instead require a full independent enquiry before any hospital job cuts. We believe cuts can unde

Limit Lord Mayor Tenure to Two Terms

Limit the number of terms an individual may serve as Lord Mayor or Mayor to two terms in any local authority by amending existing local government legislation and requiring councils to update their standing orders accordingly.

Reduce state pension age to 60 to create jobs for young people

Reduce the state pension age to 60 years old. We think this change could create jobs for young people, reduce sickness and healthcare costs for older adults in the workforce, and reduce workforce strain due to sickness amongst older workers

Seize all Russia-linked shadow fleet tankers

The UK Government should seize all tankers in Russia’s Shadow Fleet – ships that are avoiding international sanctions by transporting oil with false flags, with communications off, without proper insurance, and sometimes in a dangerous stat

Classify affordable housing as critical national infrastructure

Classify affordable housing as critical national infrastructure to address the lack of supply of safe, accessible and affordable housing. This single action could allow for long-term investment and planning to provide a fundamental human ne

Do not fund officers to patrol French beaches for illegal small boat crossings

We want the government to stop giving France millions to police their own beaches to reduce illegal small boat crossings.

Mark 30 years of DDA: Make all public buildings flat threshold

The disability discrimination act promised disabled people equality of access yet 30 years later still some public buildings, like 10 Downing Street, have steps and visitors may using face portable ramps that we think are embarrassing.

Random Microchip Checks and Harsher Penalties for Abandoning Cats

We call on the government to introduce random home microchip checks and harsher penalties for those who abandon cats and kittens. We think stronger laws and proactive measures would ensure accountability, protect vulnerable animals, and

Remove false accusations involving children services from parents’ records

We want the Government to legislate to automatically remove any accusations proven to be false as a result of previous investigations from parents' children’s services records, so that parents do not have to declare an involvement in the pa

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.

Make Remote Working a Legal Right Where Roles Can Be Performed From Home

Grant employees a legal right to work from home where their role can be performed remotely and performance standards are met. Employers must provide clear, evidence-based reasons to refuse, rather than relying on preference or assumption. T

Recognise nonbinary gender identities in law and in official identity documents

Make nonbinary gender markers possible on any official document where a gender marker is required, e.g. passport, gender recognition certificate, marriage documents, death certificate.

Align Plan 2 student loan interest rates with Plan 5 (RPI only).

We call on the government to remove the +3% 'real' interest rate from Plan 2 loans and cap interest at RPI, as is the case for students who started after 2023.

Include the Royal Family, Household & Duchies in the Freedom of Information Act

Legislate to bring the Royal Family, the Royal Household, the Duchy of Lancaster, and the Duchy of Cornwall within the scope of the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act 2000. We think this would help to modernise constitutional transparency, sa

Require employers give employees 3 months sick pay when cancer is diagnosed

I want the government to have a policy in place to help all cancer patients financially. I feel that for the first couple of months, cancer patients need to focus on their diagnosis. Having 3 months of full sick pay in place could allow the

Ban councils considering PIP/DLA as income for council tax reduction schemes

Stop councils including personal independence payment/DLA as income for council tax reduction schemes.

Make the pensions of former Prime Ministers performance-based

I think the government must be held accountable, should deliver upon manifesto pledges and should lead by example. I propose pensions for former PMs be performance-based, starting at basic state pension with extra points awarded for the gen
