The UK Government should not unilaterally recognise a Palestinian State - 58,701 Signatures

(Estimated Final Signatures: 59,177 - 19 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.

The Government responsed to this petition on 16th October 2025 (View Full Response)
Our recognition of Palestinian statehood, done as part of a wider global drive for peace, is helping to deliver the opposite of the petition’s concerns, showing why it was the right decision to make.

Apply to Rejoin the EU as soon as possible to increase growth in the UK - 31,022 Signatures

(Estimated Final Signatures: 54,079 - 204 added in the past 24hrs)

We believe Brexit's not working. The OBR judges that the UK economy is smaller and trade is weaker because of Brexit, and it will just get worse. 10 years after the Brexit vote, let's apply to rejoin the EU, reverse the damage, boost growth, increase tax revenues and restore opportunities in the UK

The Government responsed to this petition on 7th January 2026 (View Full Response)
The UK will not be rejoining the EU, but this Government has reset its relationship with the EU with a new strategic partnership: A deal that is good for UK bills, borders, jobs and growth.

Bereavement Support Payment provides valuable short-term help after a death. While we are not able to increase BSP at this time, longer-term support is available from other social security benefits.

Make it an offence to carry a catapult in public without lawful defence - 38,687 Signatures

(Estimated Final Signatures: 39,357 - 10 added in the past 24hrs)

Change the law so catapult possession in public is an offence. Currently, police must prove intent or use to cause harm. We propose it becomes an absolute offence, like air rifles, without lawful defence. Rising attacks on people, animals, and wildlife show stronger powers are needed.

The Government responsed to this petition on 16th December 2025 (View Full Response)
There are laws that can already be used against individuals who use catapults as a weapon, but the Government understands the concerns and is actively looking at this issue.

Many children with SEND are being failed. Some families can wait months or even years for support, leaving children without the education they are legally entitled to and causing long-term harm.

The Government responsed to this petition on 22nd January 2026 (View Full Response)
The government will work to ensure children with SEND get a high-quality education. The SEND National Conversation, Select Committee reports and Schools White Paper consultation will inform reforms.
