We believe our country is facing serious challenges both from legal and illegal migration, and think the only way to deal with this is to suspend all immigration temporarily for 5 years.

- 146,456 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 168,706 - 406 added in the past 24hrs)
We think that changing inheritance tax relief for agricultural land will devastate farms nationwide, forcing families to sell land and assets just to stay on their property. We urge the government to keep the current exemptions for working farms.

- 47,267 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 115,658 - 882 added in the past 24hrs)
The Government’s TB Eradication Strategy allows the continued killing of badgers, a protected species, until the end of this Parliament, despite the Labour manifesto calling the cull “ineffective.”
We believe the badger cull is unjustified and must end.

- 66,375 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 94,366 - 296 added in the past 24hrs)
I believe joining the EU would boost the economy, increase global influence, improve collaboration and provide stability & freedom. I believe that Brexit hasn't brought any tangible benefit and there is no future prospect of any, that the UK has changed its mind and that this should be recognised.
