UK Parliament Petitions

Introduce gas and electricity price caps for businesses

We want the Government to introduce a cap on business energy prices, like the domestic energy price cap. We think this would help protect micro, small, medium, and large-sized companies from extreme energy costs, support economic stability

Independent Financial Broadcasting Service to Report on UK Government Spending

We call on the Government to fund the creation of an independent financial broadcasting service which would be separate from political control and would transparently broadcast information about how public money is collected and spent acros

Fund research for ketamine treatment for chronic pain

Some studies show that ketamine therapy, delivered over consecutive days is effective at treating chronic pain. We believe that treating chronic pain patients with analgesic drugs, including opioids, is not best available practice, particu

Grant Ukrainian citizens visa-free short-term entry to the UK

We call on the Government to remove visa requirements for Ukraine citizens for short-term visits up to 90 days, ensuring reciprocity, as UK citizens can already travel to Ukraine without a visa.

Full funding for tuition fees for disabled adults who want to return to college

I think that many disabled adults who want to return to college for certain courses can't because of tuition fees that can go into the thousands. To get more disabled people into work, I think we need to have better access to qualifications

Disqualify current or ex Solicitors, Barristers & Judges from becoming MPs

We believe that any prospective MP upon nomination should be required to declare if they are or have ever been a Solicitor, Barrister & Judge. If they have they would be disqualified from being an MP.

Require all social housing providers to sound insulate all managed buildings.

Require all social housing providers to sound insulate all buildings they manage to bring them up to the standards required of new buildings.

Change Delay compensation times on UK trains from 15 minutes to 10 minutes.

The Government should change the minimum time for delay repay to 10 minutes in train franchise contracts. We think this will force a change of operation from operators as it would eat into their share price.

Remove requirement to have motor insurance unless you have past driving offences

We think car insurance being compulsory allows insurance companies to take advantage, hike their prices and ask for extortionate prices, especially for young drivers. We feel this gives drivers no choice, and puts extra strain on cost of li

Change the threshold for Historic (Classic) vehicles to 25 years or less

The current threshold is 40 years or more. We wish to change this to 25 years. This would be for both the MOT and Tax rules.

Recognise gambling as a trade and form of income for child maintenance

We call on the Government to recognise gambling as a trade and professional gamblers as self-employed. We would like the earnings made by professional gamblers to be used to calculate how much child support should be paid.

Fund free 'I Voted' stickers at polling stations during general elections.

Fund free 'I Voted' stickers at polling stations to boost voter engagement and civic pride. We think these stickers have proven successful elsewhere and can encourage turnout and foster a sense of community. We think it's a simple, effectiv

Remove living rooms from overcrowding standards in Housing Act 1985

We call on the Government to amend Part X of the Housing Act 1985 to state that a household’s living room cannot be legally counted as a bedroom space when calculating overcrowding space standards.

Provide funding to triple the current number of immigration enforcement officers

The Government should provide funding to triple the number of immigration enforcement officers, in order to deport more illegal immigrants.

Replace fines for water companies with transfers of shares to public ownership

Fines of water companies by Ofwat have proven to be ineffective; they are ultimately paid for by higher bills for consumers. Neither the behaviour of these companies or their performance has improved. Instead companies should be compelled t

Ban recreational vaping: prohibit sale, manufacture, and importation

Ban vaping. Prohibit the sale, manufacture, and importation of all non-pharmacy vapes, restricting legal sales to pharmacies, and limiting flavours to tobacco, mint, or menthol.

Fund "Recycle-for-Cash" machines at supermarkets

Littering is a problem but setting up recycling machines where people can recycle for money could help to prevent this. I would like the government to set up the machines in supermarkets because this is where items are bought most.

Legally binding deadlines to fit all homes with solar upgrades + refits

UK homes pump millions of tonnes of carbon yearly. We demand legally binding deadlines to retrofit all existing housing with solar, batteries, and insulation. We must treat this as an emergency to slash energy bills, end fuel poverty, and s

MPs who resign from the HoC should be banned from standing for five years

Parliament should introduce a bill that bans MPs who resign from standing in any subsequent by-election or general election for 5 years.

Fund optional gynaecological health consultations for girls aged 11-16

Fund and offer all girls in state and independent secondary schools in England: a pelvic ultrasound at start and end of secondary school (age 11–12 and 15–16), screening for endometriosis, PCOS (PMOS) and uterine fibroids, plus a confidenti

Review sentencing guidance for harassment, stalking and threats of violence

Review sentencing guidelines and punishments for harassment, stalking and threats of violence, include tougher penalties for repeat offenders and breaches of protection orders. Ensure sentencing reflects the impact on victims and provides s

Seek to negotiate a freedom of movement agreement with the US Government

We urge the UK Government to seek to negotiate an agreement with the US Government that allows UK and US citizens to live, work, study and retire in both countries with minimal barriers. This could boost economic growth, innovation, trade &

Require local authorities to have a cooling strategy

We need all local authorities to have a cooling strategy to deal with increasing heat, causing unnecessary deaths from drowning etc. Each Local Authority (LA) must publish its strategy including things like free swimming on heatwave days, a

Fund free access to all swimming pools during a heatwave

My petition is for the government to require swimming pools to open to all during heatwaves and for the government to fund free access to allow people to swim safely for free to prevent deaths from open water.

Review laws protecting employees from dismissal for lawful speech outside work

Review legal framework for protecting staff from dismissal by their employers for lawful speech outside work. A review could establish stricter duties on employers to show clearer and more demonstrable harm to legitimate business interests
