- 725 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 751 - 1 added in the past 24hrs)
The Government must recruit more probation officers, increase funding for probation services and conduct an urgent review into working conditions for staff. We believe the Probation Service is critically past its maximum capacity to manage dangerous offenders and staff are burned out.
Review how family court considers children's voices and feelings
- 261 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 751 - 31 added in the past 24hrs)
We need a review to examine how family courts hear from children about their feelings. We believe children are suffering and are concerned about long term effects if child arrangements orders are placed with no review or even children being properly heard in courts. This needs changing.

- 177 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 698 - 3 added in the past 24hrs)
In February 2024, Ofsted carried out an inspection of the Children and Family Court Advisory and Support Service (CAFCASS). The report graded CAFCASS as outstanding in all areas. We do not feel this glowing report reflects CAFCASS practice, and want a Government review.

Introduce a Duty to Rescue Law in England and Wales
- 483 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 541 - 1 added in the past 24hrs)
There is currently no statutory duty to rescue someone in need. Someone could openly watch an individual drown or be in serious peril, such as suffering an overdose or heart attack, and do nothing.

- 447 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 457 - 1 added in the past 24hrs)

- 226 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 365 - 2 added in the past 24hrs)
I'd like the minimum sentence for murder to be increased to 20 years, regardless of the circumstances and any mitigating factors. Currently the starting point for sentences for murders is 15 years in most cases.
