Fund Cervical Length Check at 12-Week Scan to Help Prevent Preterm Births

Review overtime taxation to make it fairer for UK workers

Many work overtime out of financial need, to make ends meet and do not do it always by choice, as it can reduce family time. Fairer overtime taxation could support workers, encourage extra hours in essential sectors, and help overstretched

Lower the MIR for family visas to the National Minimum Wage

At the beginning of June 2025 the Migration Advisory Committee recommended that the MIR should be lowered to national minimum wage of £23.000-25.000. We think the government should lower it and reunite families that are divided

We want a law allowing pet owners to claim legal damages for pain and suffering caused by veterinary negligence, holding vets accountable in court — not just for financial loss, but for the animal’s suffering.

Hold an emergency referendum to reinstate the gallows death penalty for treason

Hold an emergency referendum to reinstate the gallows death penalty for treason

Gift retired helicopters and a support package to Ukraine

The Ministry of Defence decided to retire some helicopters in 2025. Although old, I think these helicopters still represent a formidable capability. If Ukraine could use them, I think they should have them and a support package free of char

Make failure to report a child’s disclosure of abuse or harm a criminal offence

Require all Members of Parliament to undergo mandatory national security vetting as a condition of taking and holding office, with a defined baseline clearance level for parliamentarians.

Review and expand the definition of rape in law

Currently, under the law, men and women who are sexually assaulted by women cannot be seen as rape victims due to a definition focused on penetration with a penis, even though many people view this as rape. Female perpetrators can only be c

Ban ultra-processed foods, sweets, takeaways, energy drinks and sweeteners

Ban the selling of ultra processed food and drink such as sweets, takeaways, energy drinks, all added sugars, artificial sweeteners and sugar alcohols. It is the cause for obesity in our country. We think we need to eat single ingredient fo

Abolish UK Mayors

We believe mayors represent an expensive, unnecessary layer of bureaucracy that duplicates existing council functions without delivering proportional value.

We think car parking spaces are too small and don’t allow doors to open adequately for people to get in and out of their cars when other cars are parked either side of the defined parking zone. We want the Government to introduce a minimum

Ban ultra-processed (NOVA 4) foods from all school meals

Ban serving ultra-processed foods (NOVA 4) in school meals. Shift policy to prioritise child nutrition with fresh, whole ingredients—locally sourced where possible. We think that our children’s health and nutritional needs must come first.

Require people on Universal Credit & fit to work to take a public sector job

We urge the Government to require those fit to work and claiming Universal Credit to work a public sector or community role. We believe this could provide valuable skills, reduce benefit dependency, and help address critical staffing shorta

Pass a bill to make water, energy and transport companies invest a set amount in infrastructure before paying out shareholders. Introduce a new performance index that they must surpass before profits can be taken out of the companies, or co

Life imprisonment for rapists without release

I would like for a Ban to be placed on Generative AI and for a review to be held on regulation of responsible use of other AI tools. We are very concerned about the environmental impacts of generative AI.

Review the criminal justice system.

We believe there is a disconnect between the basic values of common decency held by the public and those reflected in the criminal justice system. Many consider it unacceptable for suspended sentences to be issued for sexual crimes, particu
