End the Badger cull and adopt other approaches to bovine TB control
- 11,374 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 83,948 - 10,089 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.
Ban fossil fuel advertising and sponsorship
- 12,686 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 81,424 - 713 added in the past 24hrs)
Advertisements encourage the use of products and sponsorship promotes a positive reputation & creates a social licence of trust & acceptability. In 2003 a ban on all tobacco advertising was introduced and has arguably worked. I believe continued fossil fuel usage will kill more people than smoking.
Exempt all social care providers from the employer NIC increase
- 29,814 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 80,575 - 325 added in the past 24hrs)
We believe the increase in employer National Insurance will put immense pressure on the social care sector, a sector already stretched by funding and staffing issues. We call on the government to review this decision and exempt all social care providers from these added costs.
Create a public consultation on freedom of speech and disinformation
- 19,354 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 53,261 - 213 added in the past 24hrs)
We believe that lies, fraud, and media toxicity threaten our way of life. We think new mechanisms are needed to preserve confidence. How else can people know what to trust?
The Government responsed to this petition on 29th November 2024 (View Full Response)Allow BN(O)s ETA-free entry
- 7,171 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 52,127 - 1,566 added in the past 24hrs)
We urge the UK Government to maintain the current practice of allowing BN(O) passport holders to enter the UK without applying for an ETA. We think the ETA system WILL impose unjust restrictions and financial burdens, contradicting prior commitments to BN(O) Hongkongers.
Run a public information campaign on the climate crisis
- 17,163 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 48,842 - 199 added in the past 24hrs)
Communicate clearly:
1) the science behind the climate crisis - how & why for the first time in the last year we've averaged 1.5 degrees above pre-industrial levels
2) the implications of going beyond this and what needs to be done to address it globally, nationally, locally and individually.
Decriminalise Abortion
- 9,350 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 46,418 - 604 added in the past 24hrs)
I am calling on the UK government to remove abortion from criminal law so that no pregnant person can be criminalised for procuring their own abortion.
Require MPs proven to mislead public to resign and create 'fact check' committee
- 6,579 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 37,900 - 198 added in the past 24hrs)
We think that MPs who mislead the public should be held accountable and required to step down. We also want the Government to set up an independent 'fact check' committee. We feel that we need to restore honour and integrity into politics.
Ban animal testing for human products and medicines
- 4,752 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 31,131 - 155 added in the past 24hrs)
We demand that the Government bans the use of animal testing/experiments for human medicines and products. This means that animal testing could not be used for new drugs, and other scientific methods would need to be used. We believe modern science can replace animal experiments.
Fund more CAR T Cell Therapy for eligible patients
- 3,293 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 24,211 - 3,088 added in the past 24hrs)
CAR T Cell therapy is currently allowed for some cancer patients on the NHS when other options have been unsuccessful. I think that people who are eligible should be offered it as a second line of treatment.
