Public inquiry into the selling of Family Asset Protection Trusts.

We think some people are being mis-sold "Family Asset Protection Trusts". We think the Government needs to protect citizens, introduce harsher punishments for miss-selling, and support victims.

Children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities should be protected in education settings at all times. We believe there should be CCTV to ensure that the right care is always given. We think this needs to be regulated both in spec

I feel that a lot of the sports chosen for GCSE PE are not available in more deprived areas, limiting the options for working class children to consider taking a GCSE in sport.

Ban all gambling ads from social media, TV and all other platforms

We urge the government to ban gambling ads across all platforms (Social Media, Youtube, TV, Radio, etc). We believe that these adverts fuel addiction, harming individuals, families, and future generations. Gambling addiction is a serious pu
