We call upon the Government to introduce legislation banning cousin marriages.
Marriage is already illegal between siblings, so why not cousins?
Give parents who split up automatic 50/50 shared care of their children
- 182 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 325 - 2 added in the past 24hrs)
Parents should get 50/50 shared care of their children without lengthy court hearings if no safeguarding issues & both families can provide care. Currently I feel parents have to fight for more or any care, using time & money better spent on the children, negatively affecting the parent & children.

We believe majority jury verdicts can lead to miscarriages of justice.

We believe that parents, often Fathers, across the UK are paying child maintenance while being unfairly denied access to their children and we want this to change.
Review and reform Cafcass to address systemic failings and protect families
- 192 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 246 - 2 added in the past 24hrs)
We think Cafcass fails children and families, showing a lack of balance, ignoring evidence, and enabling abusers. Section 7 reports may be inaccurate, professional assessments dismissed, and complaints ignored. Victims may face retraumatisation, while staff may make harmful decisions.
Repeal the Human Rights Act 1998
- 63 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 234 - 1 added in the past 24hrs)
We urge the Government to repeal the Human Rights Act 1998. We believe this would allow the UK to create a tougher deterrence to protect British borders and help stop illegal migration.

Hold a public inquiry into the work of the Family Courts
- 221 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 232 - 4 added in the past 24hrs)
We think there are huge inefficiencies in the family court system. We think this leads to delays, incorrect appointments, wrong outcomes and lack of contact between parents and children. We believe hundreds of thousands of people are affected.
Fund Child Contact Centre visits for parents
- 209 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 227 - 1 added in the past 24hrs)
Some individuals are ordered by the courts to attend a child contact centre for supervised or supported contact. We feel this should be funded by the Government.
Review and reform child custody arrangements
- 210 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 225 - 1 added in the past 24hrs)
Change the default child custody contact arrangements to be 50/50 shared contact and living. We feel that the current system leads to disputes and can leave children without access to one parent.
