Give the British Public the Right to Vote No Confidence in the Government - 100,378 Signatures

(Estimated Final Signatures: 109,768 - 346 added in the past 24hrs)

We call on Parliament to pass a law giving the British public the power to trigger a vote of no confidence in the ruling government.
Currently, only MPs can do this. We believe the public should also have the democratic right to express when they’ve lost trust in those elected to lead.

The Government responsed to this petition on 4th September 2025 (View Full Response)
The Government holds office by virtue of being able to command the confidence of the House of Commons, whose members are elected by the public. There are no plans to change these arrangements.

The Government has no plans to introduce menstrual leave for those with endometriosis or adenomyosis. We know the hardship they cause. Our employment rights reforms will help manage health at work.

Make it an offence for a person's dog to kill another pet and prosecute owners - 61,683 Signatures

(Estimated Final Signatures: 61,683 - 12 added in the past 24hrs)

We want the government to make it an offence for an person's dog to kill another pet and prosecute owners if this happens. We think that owners must be held accountable and face consequences if their pet kills another pet.

The police and local authorities already have a range of powers available to tackle dangerous dogs and irresponsible dog ownership, including in instances where a dog attacks another animal.

End testing on dogs and other animals for development of products for human use - 49,548 Signatures

(Estimated Final Signatures: 60,368 - 92 added in the past 24hrs)

Many tests on dogs and other animals cause unimaginable suffering. They can translate poorly into effective treatments and cures for human diseases or provide safety and efficacy data that is not relevant to humans.

The Government responsed to this petition on 13th November 2025 (View Full Response)
The use of animals for development of products for human use remains necessary. The Government therefore does not agree to end testing on dogs and other animals for testing and research purposes.

The UK Government should not unilaterally recognise a Palestinian State - 57,442 Signatures

(Estimated Final Signatures: 58,835 - 24 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.

Raise the income tax personal allowance from £12,570 to £20,000 - 42,965 Signatures

(Estimated Final Signatures: 44,834 - 33 added in the past 24hrs)

This would help with increasing rent, mortgages, Council tax, and Gas and Electric bills. Some families can’t afford to go back to work after children due to childcare costs wiping their whole income!

The Government responsed to this petition on 17th November 2025 (View Full Response)
The Government is committed to keeping taxes for working people as low as possible while ensuring fiscal responsibility, so we will not increase the Personal Allowance to £20,000.
