- 16,060 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 31,149 - 147 added in the past 24hrs)
We think the Government should put up the personal tax allowance to £15,000. This could help people on a low wage and help with the increase in the cost of living.

Exempt all state pensions and benefits from income tax
- 19,740 Signatures

Enact legislation to make 'psychologist' a protected title
- 8,968 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 24,605 - 154 added in the past 24hrs)
Anyone can use the title of 'psychologist'. We believe this undermines public trust and contributes to harm. Nine types of 'psychologist' role are protected (i.e. clinical, health), regulated by HCPC and adhere to strict standards. We want any use of the title 'psychologist' to be protected.
Do not introduce regular bank account checks for benefit claimants
- 24,062 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 24,482 - 19 added in the past 24hrs)
Most benefit claimants are not fraudsters, and we believe Ministers are taking too aggressive an approach towards benefit claimants, in a way which denies freedom and rights of privacy, and seems to treat all benefit claimants like fraudsters.
