Prohibit the wearing of all full-face coverings in public spaces - 43,567 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 55,454 - 100 added in the past 24hrs)

We call on the Government to prohibit full-face coverings in public, including niqabs, burqas, balaclavas and ski masks, to strengthen social cohesion, preserve cultural values, enhance security and promote gender equality. We believe this will ensure fairness, safety and a more unified Britain.

The Government responsed to this petition on 30th June 2025 (View Full Response)
It is not government policy to ban the burka or other face coverings in public.

We urge the Government to reduce the qualifying period for Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) from 5 years to 3 years for legally residing immigrants who are working, paying taxes, and have no criminal record.

The Government responsed to this petition on 7th March 2025 (View Full Response)
People can settle in the UK after a period of temporary permission. These periods may vary in specific instances; we keep policies under review but see no case to reduce the current five-year period.

(Estimated Final Signatures: 44,555 - 105 added in the past 24hrs)

We call on the Government to stop the shooting of hares during their peak breeding season, by establishing a legally enforceable close season for hares in England and Wales, from 1st February to 30th September.

The Government responsed to this petition on 27th May 2025 (View Full Response)
The policy of a close season for hares in England remains under consideration as part of the Government’s plans to introduce the most ambitious programme for animal welfare in a generation.
Open Petition since 27th March 2025

End the Injustice: Grant British Nationals (Overseas) Full UK Citizenship - 26,464 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 41,149 - 2,653 added in the past 24hrs)

We want the government to address what we feel is a long-standing injustice and grant BN(O)s full citizenship rights we think they deserve. We think this would be a recognition of their historical ties to the UK and also a reaffirmation of the UK's commitment to democratic principles & human rights.

The Government responsed to this petition on 28th April 2025 (View Full Response)
We remain committed to the BN(O) route, allowing BN(O)s and their families to live, study, and work in the UK. However, we have no plans to amend the law to grant immediate British citizenship.

Introduce a ‘School Allergy Safety Bill’ to Protect School Pupils with Allergies - 8,011 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 38,373 - 366 added in the past 24hrs)

Legislate to require and fund schools to hold spare adrenaline auto-injectors, provide mandatory allergy training for staff, and mandate an allergy policy in every school. We think this would help keep children with allergies safe at school and prevent avoidable deaths.


Open Petition since 7th January 2025

Require labelling of beef & dairy from cows fed with additives to reduce methane - 37,280 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 37,289 - 12 added in the past 24hrs)

We believe that all beef and dairy products from cows whose feed contains additives used for reducing methane emissions, should be labelled to state that this is the case, so the public can decide whether to consume or not, instead of consuming unknowingly. We believe it should be our choice.

The Government responsed to this petition on 19th February 2025 (View Full Response)
There are currently no rules requiring meat or dairy products to be labelled with details of animal feed, and the Government has no plans to introduce any.
Open Petition since 15th January 2025

Create path to Settlement for Ukrainians in the UK - 35,910 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 35,972 - 7 added in the past 24hrs)

We urge the UK government to provide a path to settlement for Ukrainians living in the UK. These individuals face significant uncertainty about their future. We think allowing them to settle would provide the stability needed to rebuild their lives and contribute to British society.

The Government responsed to this petition on 24th February 2025 (View Full Response)
We recognise the Ukrainian government’s desire for the return of their citizens to help rebuild Ukraine when it is safe to do so. This is why the temporary Ukraine schemes do not lead to settlement.

Following the UK’s ratification of UNESCO's Convention for the Safeguarding of Intangible Cultural Heritage, we call on the Government to recognise production and serving of traditional British cask ale as Intangible Cultural Heritage.

The Government responsed to this petition on 24th April 2025 (View Full Response)
The Government is setting up an inventory to recognise intangible cultural heritage in the UK. We will open a public call later this year and would welcome a submission on cask ale.
Open Petition since 8th April 2025

Protect Disabled people who cannot work from planned cuts to benefits - 28,675 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 31,208 - 27 added in the past 24hrs)

We want the Government to halt all planned benefit cuts for disabled people unable to work. Instead of reducing benefits, we want them to rise in line with inflation. We want support, not hardship and deprivation, for those who cannot work.

The Government responsed to this petition on 29th April 2025 (View Full Response)
The Government must urgently tackle the spiralling welfare bill, restore trust and fairness in the system, and protect disabled people. Social security reforms will therefore continue as planned.
Open Petition since 30th June 2025

No tax or national insurance on overtime for emergency service workers - 5,477 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 31,123 - 145 added in the past 24hrs)

Members of the emergency services may regularly work overtime and sometimes do not have the choice but to work it because it may be an aid requirement or jobs may run over. We think that any overtime worked should not be taxed or subject to national insurance
