- 37,843 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 115,310 - 4,157 added in the past 24hrs)
We think each year, individuals suffer because of loud fireworks. We believe horses, dogs, cats, livestock and wildlife can be terrified by noisy fireworks and many people find them intolerable.
Protect Legal Migrants: do not implement the 10-Year ILR proposal
- 103,878 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 112,743 - 279 added in the past 24hrs)
We urge the UK Government to scrap plans to extend ILR from 5 to 10 years. We feel that legal migrants, especially care workers, followed the rules and built lives here under the 5-year promise. We think they support vital services and deserve fairness, not shifting rules.

- 70,185 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 71,127 - 53 added in the past 24hrs)
Only people who live in Greater London are allowed to vote for candidates in the Mayoral elections. We think London carries so much influence across the globe and the majority of UK residents have no say as to who 'heads up' and manages our great city, and we should. London belongs to us all.

We call on the Government to prohibit full-face coverings in public, including niqabs, burqas, balaclavas and ski masks, to strengthen social cohesion, preserve cultural values, enhance security and promote gender equality. We believe this will ensure fairness, safety and a more unified Britain.
The Government responsed to this petition on 30th June 2025 (View Full Response)Introduce a Pension Tax Lock to help protect retirement savings and incentives
- 18,391 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 60,181 - 260 added in the past 24hrs)
The Chancellor should introduce a Pension Tax Lock: a commitment not to reduce the amount people can withdraw from their pension tax-free or the amount of tax relief given on pension contributions. We believe this would help ensure retirement savings are protected and people can save with confidence
The UK Government should not unilaterally recognise a Palestinian State
- 55,877 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 57,989 - 15 added in the past 24hrs)
We urge the UK not to unilaterally recognise a Palestinian state before a negotiated peace. We believe the UK should support direct talks, conditioned on Hamas releasing hostages, disarming, & leaving Gaza; & the PA ending ‘Pay to Slay’, removing extremist content from schools, & recognising Israel.
