Open Petition since 25th June 2025

Formal support framework for families of murdered British citizens overseas - 21,859 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 22,948 - 107 added in the past 24hrs)

Our family, like many others, has endured the loss of a loved one overseas and we feel we experienced an absence of leadership, guidance, and support. Consistent assistance from British embassies is necessary regarding which actions should be taken when a family encounters such tragedy abroad.

The Government responsed to this petition on 22nd September 2025 (View Full Response)
We are committed to supporting families of UK nationals bereaved by murder abroad and are consulting widely on potential improvements to that support, including statutory and non-statutory options.

Keep the 5-Year ILR pathway for existing ECAA visa holders - 8,224 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 21,441 - 94 added in the past 24hrs)

We ask the UK Government to keep the 5-year route to Indefinite Leave to Remain for former ECAA (Turkish Businessperson) visa holders. Extending it to 10 years breaks previous commitments and unfairly affects those who built lives and businesses in the UK.

Stop HMRC implementing making tax digital and enforcing quarterly submissions - 19,642 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 19,847 - 11 added in the past 24hrs)

HMRC is pushing ahead with Making Tax Digital: a scheme that requires all business to maintain digital accounts. Currently many small businesses use paper accounting records or spreadsheets. Small businesses may lack the skills, time and funding to maintain digital accounts.

The Government responsed to this petition on 15th October 2025 (View Full Response)
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.

Continue Parental Responsibility Automatically when disabled children turn 18 - 18,458 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 18,609 - 5 added in the past 24hrs)

Change the law to automatically allow parents or carers to retain parental responsibility when their disabled child turns 18, if the child lacks capacity and remains in the parent’s care. We think this would remove the need for costly and unnecessary applications to the Court of Protection.

The Government responsed to this petition on 12th November 2025 (View Full Response)
The Government has no plans to legislate to allow parental responsibility to continue from age 18 in order to ensure that the best interests of young adults are protected in all cases.

We want ministers stripped of any powers related to the Electoral Commission’s budget and strategy. Parliament must restore the independence the Commission had pre-2022, and guarantee it can operate free from any political influence.

The Government responsed to this petition on 5th December 2025 (View Full Response)
The Government is taking decisive action to strengthen and protect the UK’s democracy and will continue to support the operational independence of the Electoral Commission.
