(Estimated Final Signatures: 28,193 - 3 added in the past 24hrs)

I'd like to for the law to be changed so children are only permitted to ice skate if wearing protective gloves to protect their hands. The blades are so sharp.

The safety and welfare of those taking part in ice skating is absolutely paramount. We have no plans to change the law. The terms and conditions for ice skating are decided on a venue-by-venue basis.

Abolish interest charges on student loans - 24,227 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 24,470 - 27 added in the past 24hrs)

Cancel interest charges on all student loans. We believe placing this burden on the backs of those that want to succeed in life is abhorrent and short-sighted. These charges penalise our brightest and best, the very people that contribute the most to society.

The Government responsed to this petition on 23rd March 2026 (View Full Response)
Student loans are heavily subsidised by government. To be fair to taxpayers and low earners, those who financially benefit should contribute to the cost. Adding interest to loans is one way to do this

Pass law to ban foreign & offshore ownership of UK media, enact a social-media levy to distribute media ownership across society & fund independent, local & cooperative-owned media. We believe democracy is failing as the media & political power are owned by a tiny rich elite.

(Estimated Final Signatures: 23,983 - 7 added in the past 24hrs)

Codify in statute clear and binding obligations for MPs on time spent in their constituency and in Parliament. We think that leaving it to convention unfortunately allows a minority to abuse the system.
