(Estimated Final Signatures: 422,993 - 1,855 added in the past 24hrs)

We are determined to tackle illegal migration and end the use of asylum hotels but in the meantime there is a legal requirement to support asylum seekers who would otherwise be living on the streets.

Protect Northern Ireland Veterans from Prosecutions - 166,507 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 276,878 - 879 added in the past 24hrs)

We think that the Government should not make any changes to legislation that would allow Northern Ireland Veterans to be prosecuted for doing their duty in combating terrorism as part of 'Operation Banner'. (1969-2007)

The Government responsed to this petition on 3rd June 2025 (View Full Response)
The last Government’s Legacy Act was wrong and was found to be unlawful. It was opposed by many, including some families who lost relatives serving in Operation Banner.

Ban immediately the use of dogs in scientific and regulatory procedures - 250,259 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 253,880 - 94 added in the past 24hrs)

As a first step to end animal testing, we want an immediate ban for dogs. They are commercially bred in what we see as bleak and inhumane factory-like conditions. We believe there is evidence suggesting that dogs are left being unattended for extended periods in a Government-licenced establishment.

Debate: This petition was debated in Westminster Hall on 28th April 2025

The Government responsed to this petition on 5th March 2025 (View Full Response)
The government does not agree to the proposed immediate ban as international guidance still requires data from animal testing to ensure the safety of medicines and products before testing in humans.

(Estimated Final Signatures: 208,170 - 11,520 added in the past 24hrs)

Newly qualified nurses report struggling to get NHS jobs due to internal-only adverts and experience requirements. The NHS is short-staffed, but we feel new nurses are blocked from helping. We want a review on access to Band 5 roles and improvements to support into practice.

Open Petition since 14th January 2025

Prohibit publishers irrevocably disabling video games they have already sold - 167,516 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 172,979 - 6,659 added in the past 24hrs)

The government should update consumer law to prohibit publishers from disabling video games (and related game assets / features) they have already sold without recourse for customers to retain or repair them. We seek this as a statutory consumer right.

The Government responsed to this petition on 3rd February 2025 (View Full Response)
There are no plans to amend UK consumer law on disabling video games. Those selling games must comply with existing requirements in consumer law and we will continue to monitor this issue.

The Government responsed to this petition on 17th June 2025 (View Full Response)
As with several other measures in the Immigration White Paper, the proposals on earned settlement will be subject to a formal consultation process, and we welcome this contribution to that process.
