Legally recognise non-binary as a gender

Referendum on UK sovereignty over the Chagos Islands.

We call on the Government to hold a referendum on the transfer of UK sovereignty of the Chagos Islands to Mauritius. We believe the Government should consult the public on continued UK sovereignty over the Chagos Islands.

Allow artistic swimming as a GCSE and A-level option for PE coursework.

Current coursework options for GCSE and A-Level PE include many options, but do not recognise Artistic Swimming as one, even though it is a skilled Olympic sport. Not having it as an option prevents artistic swimmers from being able to c

Require large housing development applications to be made as full applications

I want the Government to change the law so that people convicted of serious domestic abuse offences must serve their full prison sentence instead of being released early.

Cap all property management fees and service charges

Property management companies managing privately owned properties have some regulations, however, we think they are insufficient as some leaseholders and tenants are being charged fees which we believe are extortionate as there is no maximu

Update business mileage allowance from 45p per mile (not changed since 2011).

The business mileage rate has been stuck at 45p per mile since 2011 – despite fuel, insurance, and maintenance costs soaring. It’s an unfair, outdated rate that penalises the self-employed and small businesses, effectively becoming yet anot

Fund more training for police in dog control matters.

We think more funding is needed for police officers to be thoroughly trained in dog behaviour and handling. We feel more training in expert handling, i.e. using tranquiliser guns, could prevent distress or danger to dogs and the public. We

Referendum on English Independence

We call for a referendum on full English independence from the UK due to what we believe is the enormous financial burden which the nations of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland place on tax-payers in England.

Ban holiday companies from charging higher prices in the school holidays

We think the government needs to ban holiday companies from charging higher prices for trips and flights during school holidays. We think it's shocking that nothing has already been done about this. Some families struggle to afford to take

Any driver/rider who causes death or injury by dangerous driving should receive a lifetime ban from driving/riding. If subsequently caught driving/riding, they should receive a substantial custodial sentence.

Align pay for general practice nurses with Agenda for Change framework

Align pay scales and reviews for general practice nurses in England with the Agenda for Change framework. Currently I believe we have unfair pay and unfair value for those of us trying to prevent the emergencies and hospitalisations.

We call for the Government to appoint a highly experienced, respected and trusted industry expert to represent manufacturing businesses and champion their needs. We feel this would fortify the sector, stimulate GDP growth and demand across

Legalise Regulated Non-Lethal Self-Defence Tools

Rising knife crime and violent attacks can leave citizens vulnerable when police cannot arrive instantly. While some self-defence can be legal, the public lacks practical tools. Legalise self defence tools such as pepper spray to help save

We want the government to replace the current visa scheme for care workers, where care worker is bound to the employers who have sponsored their visa, to a new scheme which allows the visa holders switch jobs freely still within the health
