UK Parliament Petitions

Add animal care to the national curriculum

I think it would be a good idea to teach about animal care in secondary school because of people who would like to work with animals.

Prevent the switching off of analogue landlines and fund public payphones

To reduce overall reliance on the internet and digitisation as we think it has gone too far and is now superceding common sense and could threaten public safety increasingly going forward if we get more frequent IT outages. We think payphon

Allow the extension of visas for Ukrainian refugees not residing in the UK

Current rules require Ukrainian refugees to have been resident in the UK for the whole term of their visa in order to apply to the Ukraine Permission Extension scheme. We think they should be able to extend their visa with the support of a

Support Men’s Mental Health: End the Stigma, Expand Support, and Save Lives

We think men’s mental health is in crisis. Suicide is the leading cause of death for men under 50 in the UK, with over 75% of suicides being men. We believe stigma, cultural pressures, and lack of awareness stop some men from seeking help.

Ban private, corporate and special interest groups funding political parties

Ban private, corporate or other special interest groups funding political parties.

Require rail customers to be told the cheapest possible fare

We think the UK Government should require train companies to give customers information on the cheapest possible fare as a matter of course and recognize the vital role of the existing ticket office estate in delivering on this aim.

Introduce a written UK constitution, with protections like US first amendment.

I believe the UK should introduce a written constitution, with protections like the US first amendment. I think any law that infringes these should be annulled.

Developers should make new medium to large housing estates fully adoptable.

Currently new roads for some of these estates are not made up to a good standard and local authorities don't necessarily want to adopt them.

Regulate Fair Internet Costs and Speed Equality for Households Across the UK

We urge the Government to ensure regulate internet provision by: 1. Capping network fees in homes with fibre to £10-£15/month. 2. Requiring transparent pricing for installation and monthly fees. 3. Setting a minimum speed of 300 Mbps. 4

Fund free doctors' letters for people eligible for free prescriptions

The Government should fund the provision of doctors' letters for those who are eligible for free prescriptions. We believe removing the need to pay a fee would make gaining proof of health needs more accessible for those on limited income.

Require schools to provide carbohydrate information for school meals.

Require all state-funded schools in England to provide the total carbohydrate content, in grams, for meals, snacks and drinks supplied to pupils, so that children with Type 1 diabetes and those supporting them can accurately calculate insul

Count and Publish Postal and Polling-Station Votes Separately

Require postal and polling-station votes to be counted and published separately for every candidate and constituency before being combined for the official result. This would allow comparison of voting methods while protecting ballot secrec

Introduce a statutory duty to track and provide notifications for DWP complaints

We want the UK Government to introduce a statutory duty requiring the DWP to notify claimants about their complaint digitally or by letter at every stage including opened, escalated, or changed, and to legally prohibit closure of any compla

UK Government to step up efforts to promote peace and accountability in the DRC

We call on the UK Government to formally acknowledge the victims of war in the DRC, and to review UK policy towards seeking peace and accountability in the DRC

Hold social media companies accountable for publishing scam investment adverts

The social media companies accepting payment from illegal scam investment companies should be stopped from doing this. They should be treated as publishers & made responsible for what they promote to the public.

Fund free university and higher education

The average fees per year for an undergraduate degree in the UK is £9,000, and that’s not including housing fees. Just tuition alone. We believe that due to this, millions of students and their family are suffering from huge financial issue

Mandate availability of basic water safety equipment at all open water locations

We want the Government to mandate by law the availability of basic safety equipment such as life rings and whistles at open water locations, irrespective of ongoing swimming bans that may be in effect at those locations.

Prohibit the restriction of literary works in school libraries

Make it an offence for schools to restrict pupil access to literary works in school libraries. Our children deserve access to diverse perspectives and ideas through literature, limiting their access based on individual biases curtails their

Condemn & sanction Pakistan for the Kabul hospital bombing & halt arm exports

Impose Magnitsky-style sanctions on Pakistani officials responsible for the March 16 bombing on the Kabul rehabilitation hospital. Suspend all military aid and arms export licenses to Pakistan. Formally condemn this bombing and the mass for

Abolish the High-Income Child Benefit Charge

Abolish the High-Income Child Benefit Charge so that Child Benefit remains a universal payment for all children, without any income-based repayment or restrictions. The policy should ensure equal support for all families regardless of incom

Restructure the UK Energy Market to Adopt the Norwegian Model of Resource Wealth

Adopt the Norwegian model: Establish a state-owned energy entity with equity in all North Sea projects. Legislate to decouple domestic prices from global markets, ensuring UK-extracted oil and gas is sold to UK households at a "cost-plus" s

Change the legal age to buy and consume alcohol to 16

Make the legal drinking age 16 in public places like bars and clubs. Make the legal age to purchase alcohol from shops 16 too.

Provide means-tested tax relief on private school fees.

The government spends around £8,560 (plus an additional £6000 for SEND pupils) per child in education annually. We think there should be a means-tested tax relief on private school fees to maximise the number of parents funding their child'

Revise calculation of student loan repayments for overseas graduates

Calculate the monthly repayment amount for overseas graduates according to post-tax rather than pre-tax income. (I.e. scale monthly repayments to match those of UK residents with the same take-home pay.) This would prevent the effective b

Schools to allow absence exceptions for students with mental health struggles

We call on the Government to mandate that schools must make exceptions to absence policies for children who struggle to attend school because of mental health issues, including due to recovering from trauma or due to SEND. In our view, scho
