Being the first to close and still no clue as to when we can open, this seasonal industry is losing its summer profits that allows them to get through the first quarter of next year. Even if we are allowed to open in December, 1 months profit won't be enough to keep us open in 2021. We need help
208,112 c. 1,804 added daily	350,527 (Estimated)	Create a Minister for Hospitality in the UK Government Sign this petition Gov Responded - 3 Nov 2020 Debated on - 11 Jan 2021 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	6 Apr 2021 closes in 2 months, 2 weeks
The UK hospitality industry. Responsible for around 3m jobs, generating £130bn in activity, resulting in £38bn in taxation. Yet, unlike the Arts or Sports, we do not have a dedicated Minister. We are asking that a Minister for Hospitality be created for the current, and successive governments.
476,716 c. 4,991 added daily	940,608 (Estimated)	Prioritise teachers, school and childcare staff for Covid-19 vaccination Sign this petition Debated on - 11 Jan 2021 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	20 Apr 2021 closes in 3 months
Advice from the JCVI on the priority groups for a Covid-19 vaccine does not include school/childcare workers. This petition calls for these workers, who cannot distance or use PPE, to be kept safe at work by being put on the vaccine priority list when such a list is adopted into government policy.
334,189 c. 1,433 added daily	359,954 (Estimated)	Prevent any restrictions on those who refuse a Covid-19 vaccination Sign this petition Gov Responded - 11 Sep 2020 Debated on - 14 Dec 2020 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	4 Feb 2021 closes in 2 weeks, 3 days
I want the Government to prevent any restrictions being placed on those who refuse to have any potential Covid-19 vaccine. This includes restrictions on travel, social events, such as concerts or sports. No restrictions whatsoever.
125,195 c. 840 added daily	189,282 (Estimated)	Implement a two week school lockdown before 24 December to save Christmas Sign this petition Gov Responded - 1 Dec 2020 Debated on - 7 Dec 2020 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	2 Apr 2021 closes in 2 months, 2 weeks
Schools should move to online learning from 9 December so that all students and school staff have a chance to isolate for two weeks and then can safely meet older relatives.
208,942 c. 945 added daily	240,105 (Estimated)	Cancel GCSEs and A Levels in 2021 Sign this petition Gov Responded - 20 Oct 2020 Debated on - 7 Dec 2020 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	19 Feb 2021 closes in 1 month
The Government should cancel GCSEs and A Levels in 2021 due to the disruption of Covid-19. By the time students go back to normal learning, 6 months will have passed since schools were closed to most pupils. This has already had a huge impact on the studying of so many.
427,305 c. 3,334 added daily	640,695 (Estimated)	Reclose schools and colleges due to increase in COVID-19 cases Sign this petition Gov Responded - 25 Nov 2020 Debated on - 7 Dec 2020 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	22 Mar 2021 closes in 2 months
Close down schools and colleges due to the increase in COVID-19 cases. We are seeing cases of students and teachers catching the virus since schools have reopened.
70,337 Petition Closed		Keep schools closed until Covid 19 is no longer a threat Gov Responded - 25 Nov 2020 Debated on - 7 Dec 2020 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	5 Dec 2020 closed 1 month, 1 week ago
The threat of covid19 is real. Children can’t be expected to maintain sufficient social distancing to keep this virus from spreading. They are social creatures. Allowing them back to school could cause a new spike in cases. They could bring it back home, even if they are a-symptomatic.
111,076 Petition Closed		Omit the NHS from any future trade deal with the US Gov Responded - 23 Jun 2020 Debated on - 16 Nov 2020 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	11 Nov 2020 closed 2 months, 1 week ago
As the Coronavirus escalates, there are concerns that a trade deal between the UK Government and the US deal might not exempt our NHS, leaving it vulnerable to privatisation and in direct contradiction to promises this would not happen.
143,635 Petition Closed		Make pet theft crime a specific offence with custodial sentences. Gov Responded - 31 Mar 2020 Debated on - 19 Oct 2020 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	4 Sep 2020 closed 4 months, 2 weeks ago
Pet Theft Reform 2020: Revise the sentencing guidelines in the Theft Act 1968 to reclassify pet theft as a specific crime. Ensure that monetary value is irrelevant for the categorisation of dog and cat theft crime for sentencing purposes. Recognise pet theft as a category 2 offence or above.
126,440 Petition Closed		Take action to stop illegal immigration and rapidly remove illegal immigrants Gov Responded - 8 Oct 2020 Debated on - 19 Oct 2020 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	8 Jan 2021 closed 1 week, 2 days ago
Illegal immigrants are entering the UK in many different ways, including small boats from France which are not stopped by either French or British forces.
106,128 Petition Closed		Give UK nurseries emergency funding if they have to close down amid COVID-19 Gov Responded - 14 Apr 2020 Debated on - 25 Jun 2020 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	18 Sep 2020 closed 4 months ago
If nurseries are shut down in view of Covid-19, the Government should set up an emergency fund to ensure their survival and ensure that parents are not charged the full fee by the nurseries to keep children's places.

I would like the government to review and increase the pay for healthcare workers to recognise the work that they do.
44,982 Petition Closed		We would like the government to consider social care as equally important to NHS Gov Responded - 20 Apr 2020 Debated on - 25 Jun 2020 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	24 Sep 2020 closed 3 months, 3 weeks ago
We would like the government to support and regard social care: financially, publicly and systematically on an equal par as NHS. We would like parliament to debate how to support social care during COVID-19 and beyond so that it automatically has the same access to operational and financial support.
18,137 Petition Closed		Provide financial support to performers and creators during the COVID-19 crisis Gov Responded - 22 Jul 2020 Debated on - 25 Jun 2020 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	19 Sep 2020 closed 4 months ago
The prospect of widespread cancellations of concerts, theatre productions and exhibitions due to COVID-19 threatens to cause huge financial hardship for Britain's creative community. We ask Parliament to provide a package of emergency financial and practical support during this unpredictable time.
16,347 Petition Closed		Reduce or scrap the immigration health surcharge for overseas NHS Staff. Gov Responded - 29 May 2020 Debated on - 25 Jun 2020 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	18 Sep 2020 closed 4 months ago
To revoke the Immigration Health Surcharge increases for overseas NHS staff. The latest budget shows an increase of £220 a year for an overseas worker to live and work in the UK, at a time when the NHS, and UK economy, relies heavily on them.
26,106 Petition Closed		Extend grants immediately to small businesses outside of SBRR Gov Responded - 29 May 2020 Debated on - 25 Jun 2020 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	8 Oct 2020 closed 3 months, 1 week ago
The cash grants proposed by Government are only for businesses in receipt of the Small Business Rates Relief or Rural Relief, or for particular sectors. Many small businesses fall outside these reliefs desperately need cash grants and support now.
154,814 Petition Closed		Government to offer economic assistance to the events industry during COVID-19 Gov Responded - 27 Mar 2020 Debated on - 25 Jun 2020 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	12 Sep 2020 closed 4 months, 1 week ago
For the UK government to provide economic assistance to businesses and staff employed in the events industry, who are suffering unforeseen financial challenges that could have a profound effect on hundreds of thousands of people employed in the sector.
11,220 Petition Closed		Make nurseries exempt from business rates to support the childcare sector Gov Responded - 2 Apr 2020 Debated on - 25 Jun 2020 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	5 Sep 2020 closed 4 months, 2 weeks ago
After owning nurseries for 29 years I have never experienced such damaging times for the sector with rising costs not being met by the funding rates available. Business Rates are a large drain on the sector and can mean the difference between nurseries being able to stay open and having to close.
179,699 Petition Closed		Offer more support to the arts (particularly Theatres and Music) amidst COVID-19 Gov Responded - 20 Jul 2020 Debated on - 25 Jun 2020 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	15 Dec 2020 closed 1 month ago
As we pass the COVID-19 Peak, the Government should: State where the Theatres and Arts fit in the Coronavrius recovery Roadmap, Create a tailor made financial support mechanism for the Arts sector & Clarify how Social Distancing will affect arts spaces like Theatres and Concert Venues.

As a result of the COVID-19 outbreak there are travel bans imposed by many countries, there is a disastrous potential impact on our Aviation Industry. Without the Government’s help there could be an unprecedented crisis, with thousands of jobs under threat.
72,624 Petition Closed		Give non-British citizens who are NHS workers automatic citizenship Gov Responded - 6 May 2020 Debated on - 25 Jun 2020 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	7 Oct 2020 closed 3 months, 1 week ago

Zoos, aquariums, and similar organisations across the country carry out all sorts of conservation work, animal rescue, and public education. At the start of the season most rely on visitors (who now won't come) to cover annual costs, yet those costs do not stop while they are closed. They need help.
105,421 Petition Closed		Public inquiry into the bias in the BBC Gov Responded - 14 Jan 2019 Debated on - 15 Jul 2019 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	17 Jun 2019 closed 1 year, 7 months ago
The impartiality of the BBC is in question and needs addressing so as to protect its charter
171,982 Petition Closed		Continue to fund free TV licences for the over 75 in the future. Gov Responded - 24 Jun 2019 Debated on - 15 Jul 2019 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	17 Jun 2019 closed 1 year, 7 months ago
Removing them will only penalize the poorest old age pensioners, many who rely on their television for company and their main source of entertainment.
246,736 Petition Closed		Abolish the BBC television license. Gov Responded - 26 Jun 2019 Debated on - 15 Jul 2019 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	20 Jun 2019 closed 1 year, 7 months ago
The quality of BBC programmes do not reflect the price of the TV license. It is far too expensive for the majority of people and should be abolished.
247,048 Petition Closed		Ban the use of all non-recyclable and unsustainable food packaging Gov Responded - 18 Jun 2019 Debated on - 24 Jun 2019 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	5 Jun 2019 closed 1 year, 7 months ago
Today the Earth is at a crisis point due to our plastic consumption, and as a result, people in the UK are more willing than ever to engage in recycling. Yet so much food packaging remains completely, frustratingly unrecyclable. Let's aim for the UK to lead the world with a 100% recycling rate.
107,062 Petition Closed		NEW LAW THAT CATS KILLED/INJURED BY A VEHICLE ARE CHECKED FOR A CHIP: ROUND 3 Gov Responded - 15 Feb 2019 Debated on - 17 Jun 2019 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	1 Apr 2019 closed 1 year, 9 months ago
Thousands of cats are just disposed of every year without being scanned for a chip after being involved in RTAs. Owners search for months and years and never get closure. Scanning takes two minutes. Cats are a part of a family and deserve to be returned home, not thrown into landfill.
108,144 Petition Closed		NHS supply new lifesaving drugs for Cystic Fibrosis like 11 other EU countries Gov Responded - 7 Dec 2018 Debated on - 10 Jun 2019 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	16 May 2019 closed 1 year, 8 months ago
Children & young adults with CF endure lifelong suffering & early death. They need Orkambi and other precision medicines as they are developed. Sufferers in the EU, US & Australia can access the drugs, but not the UK. Hundreds have died in the 3yrs since these drugs were licensed.
150,324 Petition Closed		Immunity for soldiers who worked in Northern Ireland. Gov Responded - 1 Apr 2019 Debated on - 20 May 2019 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	13 Sep 2019 closed 1 year, 4 months ago
Do not prosecute the military for its work in Northern Ireland. Our military should be excused all criminal investigations after a period of time.
118,050 Petition Closed		Give parents the right to opt their child out of Relationship and Sex Education Gov Responded - 9 Jan 2019 Debated on - 25 Feb 2019 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	18 Jun 2019 closed 1 year, 7 months ago
We believe it is the parent’s fundamental right to teach their child RSE topics or to at least decide who teaches them and when and how they are taught. We want the right to opt our children out of RSE when it becomes mandatory in Sept 2020.
205,359 Petition Closed		Lower the age for smear tests from 25 to 18 to prevent cervical cancer. Gov Responded - 13 Sep 2018 Debated on - 28 Jan 2019 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	3 Feb 2019 closed 1 year, 11 months ago
Hi I'm Natasha, I am making this petition because I want to make a difference to all woman living in the UK. I am 30 years old and I have metastatic cervical cancer. I believe that the age of screening should be lowered to age 18 to enable all woman to detect cell changes and prevent cancer.
144,523 Petition Closed		Grant a People's Vote if Parliament rejects the EU Withdrawal Agreement Gov Responded - 5 Feb 2019 Debated on - 14 Jan 2019 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	26 May 2019 closed 1 year, 7 months ago
The Prime Minister has negotiated an EU withdrawal agreement. However, it is clear from resignations and interviews that the deal will not pass Parliament. As no credible alternative has been proposed, the public must be allowed to vote on whether to accept this deal or to remain in the EU.
7,937 Petition Closed		To have a second referendum on Britain leaving the EU Debated on - 14 Jan 2019 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	6 May 2019 closed 1 year, 8 months ago
It's no secret that a vast amount of people who voted to leave the EU didn't realise what they were voting for. The Leave campaign said that leaving would create new trade deals, strengthen the economy and public services and reduce the number of incoming immigrants. But this is not happening.
66,971 Petition Closed		Leave the EU now Gov Responded - 27 Nov 2018 Debated on - 14 Jan 2019 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	14 Dec 2018 closed 2 years, 1 month ago
The Government is not going to achieve a satisfactory outcome from its negotiations with the EU. We should walk away now. No Deal is better than a bad deal.
608,152 Petition Closed		Leave the EU without a deal in March 2019. Gov Responded - 14 Dec 2018 Debated on - 14 Jan 2019 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	17 Apr 2019 closed 1 year, 9 months ago
We are wasting Billions of pounds of taxpayers money trying to negotiate in a short space of time. Leaving the EU in March 2019 will allow the UK good time to negotiate more efficiently. The EU will be more eager to accept a deal on our terms having lost a major partner.
46,560 Petition Closed		Walk away now! We voted for a No Deal Brexit Gov Responded - 29 Jan 2019 Debated on - 14 Jan 2019 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	20 Jun 2019 closed 1 year, 7 months ago
Theresa May has failed to negotiate a Brexit deal that is acceptable to Parliament and the British people. The Withdrawal Agreement does not deliver the Brexit we voted for. It is clear that the EU is not going to offer anything else, particularly regarding the backstop
112,578 Petition Closed		STOP BREXIT Gov Responded - 22 Nov 2018 Debated on - 14 Jan 2019 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	10 Feb 2019 closed 1 year, 11 months ago
It's so desperately simple. The Government's standard response to these kinds of petitions is "The British people voted to leave the EU and the government respect that decision". BUT, the government themselves DO NOT KNOW the outcome of that decision, so how can they possibly respect it???
32,603 Petition Closed		Stop Brexit if parliament rejects the deal Gov Responded - 4 Feb 2019 Debated on - 14 Jan 2019 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	2 Jul 2019 closed 1 year, 6 months ago
Brexit is not worth it. A hard border in Ireland will destroy the Good Friday Agreement, meds are being stockpiled and there's news that a contract has been given to a company with no ferries, and the army is on standby in the event of no-deal too. Stop Brexit if MPs vote to reject the PM's deal.
110,136 Petition Closed		If there is no agreement to leave the EU then brexit must be stopped Gov Responded - 1 Oct 2018 Debated on - 19 Nov 2018 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	18 Nov 2018 closed 2 years, 2 months ago
If there is no agreement by the deadline for reaching agreement with the EU during the talks then brexit should be stopped as leaving with no deal will be very bad for businesses and for the Irish border issue and for EU citizens living here.
128,001 Petition Closed		Require supermarkets to offer a plastic-free option for all their fruit & veg. Gov Responded - 7 Nov 2018 Debated on - 12 Nov 2018 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	21 Dec 2018 closed 2 years ago
In response to the problem of an ever-increasing amount of plastic waste polluting our environment, we need to make supermarkets offer an option of no packaging or eco-friendly packaging for each item of fresh fruit and vegetables they sell.
52,451 Petition Closed		Public Holiday on Muslims religious occasions in the UK(Eid ul Fitr&Eid ul Adha) Gov Responded - 26 Jun 2018 Debated on - 29 Oct 2018 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	29 Nov 2018 closed 2 years, 1 month ago
Public Holiday on Muslims special two religious occasions in a year: 1. Eid ul-Fitr and 2. Eid ul-Adha. This will give an opportunity for Muslim families to get together and share happiness with other religious communities. It is very important for Muslims to celebrate EID.
11,853 Petition Closed		PublicHoliday on Hindus special two religious occasions in a year:Diwali&Dussera Gov Responded - 3 Jul 2018 Debated on - 29 Oct 2018 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	15 Dec 2018 closed 2 years, 1 month ago
This will give an opportunity for Hindu families to get together and share happiness with other religious communities. It is very important for Hindus to celebrate Diwali and also Diwali — Festival of Lights is a major holiday that is also celebrated by Buddhists, Jains and Sikhs.
105,362 Petition Closed		Create a new independent welfare body to protect racehorses from abuse and death Gov Responded - 19 Mar 2018 Debated on - 15 Oct 2018 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	13 Aug 2018 closed 2 years, 5 months ago
The British Horseracing Authority is responsible for race horse welfare. But around 200 horses die each year due to racing in Britain. We urge the government to set up an independent regulatory body, with horse welfare as its only interest, which will take meaningful action to stop horses dying.
109,553 Petition Closed		Ban the sale of animal fur in the UK. Gov Responded - 28 Nov 2017 Debated on - 4 Jun 2018 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	23 Mar 2018 closed 2 years, 10 months ago
Fur farming was banned in England and Wales in 2000, followed by Scotland in 2002. However fur products can still be legally imported from other countries and sold here in the UK. Much of this fur comes from countries that have very weak or no animal welfare laws at all.
148,248 Petition Closed		Ban the sale of puppies by pet shops & all commercial 3rd party dealers. Gov Responded - 20 Mar 2018 Debated on - 21 May 2018 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	1 Sep 2018 closed 2 years, 4 months ago
Removing puppies for sale from litter & mum often creates sick, traumatised, dysfunctional dogs. Puppies should be seen with their mum & transporting them to a different place for sale harms welfare. Regulating commercial 3rd party sales is ineffective to prevent harm & a ban is therefore necessary.
117,716 Petition Closed		Make fair transitional state pension arrangements for 1950’s women Gov Responded - 27 Sep 2017 Debated on - 14 Dec 2017 View Jim Shannon's petition debate contributions	13 Mar 2018 closed 2 years, 10 months ago
That this Government without delay recognises the need for a non-means tested bridging pension for women born on or after 6/4/1950 who are affected by the 1995 and 2011 Pension Acts and compensate those at risk of losing up to around £45,000, to also give proper notification for any future changes.
