The Government has no current plans to add sickle cell disease to the medical exemption list. Extensive arrangements are in place in England to ensure that prescriptions are affordable for everyone.

Stop the double tax (IHT & Income Tax) of pension funds & death benefits - 23,299 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 27,877 - 45 added in the past 24hrs)

The Government are introducing inheritance tax to pension funds & death benefits from April 2027. When you die this may now result in a disproportionate and unfair double taxation on beneficiaries (income tax and inheritance tax) which we think results in a disincentive to funding a pension.

The Government responsed to this petition on 18th September 2025 (View Full Response)
More than 90 per cent of estates will still pay no inheritance tax each year. The Government is continuing to incentivise pensions for their intended purpose of funding retirement.

I think the UK needs to rejoin the EU fully for maximum economic benefit and to restore influence rather than merely 'reset' relations.

The Government responsed to this petition on 10th July 2025 (View Full Response)
Britain will stay outside the EU, but we must make Brexit work. In May, the Government announced a new strategic partnership with the EU which will deliver economic and security benefits for the UK.

Making Tax Digital will help businesses stay on top of their affairs, boost productivity and ensure more of the right tax is paid. The Government will support users and has no plans to delay.
