We are calling on the government to urgently legislate for: a ban on e-scooters for under-18s; mandatory e-scooter licencing, insurance, helmets and safety equipment; a ban on carrying passengers; and stricter punishments for those breaching or allowing breaches of laws related to e-scooters.

I call on the Government to increase regulations relating to parking signs to require councils to ensure they are made clearer and have clauses about what to do if there is, for example, an incorrect pay station in between the sign & the correct one.

Airfields and aerodromes play a vital role in the UK's transportation network, economic growth, emergency services, and heritage. However, some sites may be closed and redeveloped, often without sufficient public consultation or long-term strategic consideration.

Stop airport expansion: halt all airport expansion plans across the UK
- 6,682 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 8,216 - 113 added in the past 24hrs)
More than 20 airports across the UK have expansion plans, which will result in a combined increase of 60%+ capacity. More flights means more emissions, at a time when we should be doing everything we can to reduce emissions and avert climate catastrophe.

Fund a National NHS Railcard for Healthcare Staff
- 3,492 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 4,191 - 5 added in the past 24hrs)
Fund a National NHS Railcard to give healthcare staff discounted rail travel. This card could be similar to existing railcards for young people, veterans and seniors. We think this would ease commuting costs, support retention, and encourage public transport use.
Change speeding penalties to 1point for up to 25MPH on a 20MPH road
- 2,485 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 3,756 - 12 added in the past 24hrs)
We feel that the current penalty of 3 points for speeding in 20mph areas is disproportionate. We think the current penalty treats these drivers the same as other drivers who speed at much higher limits.
