UK Parliament Petitions

Fund more CAR T Cell Therapy for eligible patients

CAR T Cell therapy is currently allowed for some cancer patients on the NHS when other options have been unsuccessful. I think that people who are eligible should be offered it as a second line of treatment.

Review and reform legal status of pets, and rules on animal control equipment

I ask the Government to review and reform the status of pets to recognise them in all cases as sentient family members and relatives, not chattel. Set out specific strict rules on using animal-control equipment like catch poles and strong p

Legislate for a council tax discount for all pensioners

I feel that current council tax rates do not take pension incomes into account. This means some pensioners are having to pay what I think is a very significant percentage of their pension towards council tax.

Review and increase expense rates for employees traveling outside the UK

HMRC sets scale rate expenses for subsistence paid to employees who travel outside the UK, such as Cabin Crew. We feel the rates are not reflective or the real costs for people whose work takes them abroad, and that the way they are put int

Create one-off amnesty with extra tax obligation for undocumented people

Introduce a one-off amnesty for undocumented people currently living in the UK without a legal right to remain, granting them legal status to work. As part of this process those who are given the right to remain in the UK could pay a tempor

Reform pay, working conditions and national standards for TA's and SEN LSA's.

We ask the Government for a national reform for TA and SEN LSA roles: national pay scale, end term-time-only, equal cost-of-living awards, SEN allowance, Green Book reform, correct London weighting, national job description, workload review

Dedicated funding for Epidermolysis Bullosa and rare skin conditions research

Increase dedicated, ring-fenced Government funding for research into rare skin conditions, including all forms of Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB), to accelerate the development of effective treatments and support UK clinical trials.

Create a national database of convicted animal abusers

The database should be accessible to relevant authorities and regulated organisations, including local councils, animal welfare charities, veterinary professionals, licenced breeders, rescue centres, and organisations responsible for rehomi

Provide a legal pathway to “de-exempt” XL Bully dogs exempted as a precaution

In October 2023, DEFRA and the Chief Veterinary Officer advised owners unsure of their dog’s breed type to “take a precautionary approach” & obtain a certificate of exemption “to be safe.” As ordinary owners are not trained breed assessors,

Review decision to abolish independent local Healthwatch

We are asking the government to: • Revisit its decision to abolish local independent services that speak up for the public • Consult with the public to codesign a service which meets their needs and supports the NHS to realise its ambitio

Abandon DWP Pathways to Work Green Paper & create National Disability Strategy

The DWP Green Paper Pathways to Work proposes what we think are devastating cuts to disability benefits. We think the Government must drop these proposals and instead begin a process of co-production with disabled peoples representative org

Stop airport expansion: halt all airport expansion plans across the UK

More than 20 airports across the UK have expansion plans, which will result in a combined increase of 60%+ capacity. More flights means more emissions, at a time when we should be doing everything we can to reduce emissions and avert climat

Require drivers to stop and take cats to the vets if they hit them in their car

We want the government to make it law that if you hit a cat you must legally report it and take it to the nearest vets.

Abolish the Casey Commission into adult social care

We believe the Casey Commission is a barrier to desperately needed social care reform, a delaying mechanism and a waste of taxpayer’s money. We want the Government to abolish the commission and instead focus on resolving the social care cri

Provide a legal right to access certain services without a digital device

We call on the Government to make it law that all British citizens have a legal right to access certain services without a digital device. Protect the right to choose a non-digital or digital life—and ensure digital is a choice, not a requi

Introduce a distinct attendance code for flexischooling (Code F).

We want the Department for Education to introduce a new attendance code for flexischooling (Code F). We want this code to act in a similar way to code B (educated off site) in that it would not negatively impact attendance data, recognising

Provide funding to preserve and protect cemeteries around the UK.

We feel that much more funding for cemeteries is needed to care, maintain, protect and preserve them now and in the years ahead.

Fund a National Climate Resilience Plan: protect communities from climate impact

From floods to extreme temperatures, climate impacts risk damaging homes, health, businesses, services, and the economy. We want Government to prioritise adaptation; fund a new Resilience Plan that works with nature and includes public educ

Protect babies lives once heartbeat detectable, except in extreme cases

Introduce a bill to protect babies in the womb once a heartbeat is detected. It bans abortion of healthy babies beyond this point, with exceptions for rape, to save the mother’s life, or if the child has a fatal foetal abnormality.

Require public consultation before airfields and aerodromes can be closed

Airfields and aerodromes play a vital role in the UK's transportation network, economic growth, emergency services, and heritage. However, some sites may be closed and redeveloped, often without sufficient public consultation or long-term s

Fund culturally appropriate retirement support for Polish veterans and families

We call on the Government to fund the continued operation of culturally appropriate retirement provision to Polish veterans and their families. Such homes provide culturally specific care for elderly residents. The last home of its kind, Il

Review CMS safeguards to prevent financial abuse and coercive control

Review how the CMS detects and acts on concerns of financial abuse. We believe survivors need better access to support to navigate systems that could enable continued abuse after separation.

Don't introduce unique child identifier and increased home education regulation

We urge the government not to introduce a single unique identifier number for children and increased regulation of home education. We think its proposals would infringe on children’s privacy and parental rights, especially as elective home

Require female CPR manikins in all certified first aid training programs

The Government should implement minimum standards for first aid training providers to ensure every trainee practises CPR and first aid on a manikin with female anatomy. All training providers should be required to include anatomically accur
