Raise the personal tax allowance to £18,000 - 6,327 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 28,118 - 796 added in the past 24hrs)

Since 2021 personal tax allowance has been frozen at £12,570. This freeze was due to expire this year but the Chancellor of the Exchequer has extended it to 2031.
We want to keep some more of our own money.


Open Petition since 27th February 2026

Review and increase expense rates for employees traveling outside the UK - 10,846 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 27,970 - 148 added in the past 24hrs)

HMRC sets scale rate expenses for subsistence paid to employees who travel outside the UK, such as Cabin Crew. We feel the rates are not reflective or the real costs for people whose work takes them abroad, and that the way they are put into blocks of 5/10 or 24 hour blocks is completely unfair.

Sever UK-Iran ties, withdraw recognition of Iran’s regime & expel all diplomats - 25,888 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 27,138 - 11 added in the past 24hrs)

We urge Parliament to severe all diplomatic ties with Iran, withdraw recognition of the regime as the legitimate government of Iran, and expel any Iranian diplomats from the UK, in the wake of recent events and reported human rights abuses that have been committed there.

The Government responsed to this petition on 10th March 2026 (View Full Response)
The Government condemns Iran’s destabilising actions, but believes relations are essential to protecting British nationals, holding Iran to account, reducing escalation and supporting diplomacy.
Open Petition since 30th March 2026

Ban non-stun & recoverable stun slaughter of animals - 6,747 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 26,974 - 876 added in the past 24hrs)

Religious slaughter may require the animal to be slaughtered whilst alive, which is in line with their religious beliefs. In relation to this, stunning needs to be recoverable. Normal slaughter uses a bolt gun that renders the animal brain dead and unable to regain consciousness.

Make it compulsory for children to wear gloves ice skating - 25,795 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 25,916 - 1 added in the past 24hrs)

I'd like to for the law to be changed so children are only permitted to ice skate if wearing protective gloves to protect their hands. The blades are so sharp.

The Government responsed to this petition on 12th March 2026 (View Full Response)
The safety and welfare of those taking part in ice skating is absolutely paramount. We have no plans to change the law. The terms and conditions for ice skating are decided on a venue-by-venue basis.

Withdraw the Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill immediately - 23,578 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 23,835 - 7 added in the past 24hrs)

Government to withdraw the Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill immediately, because it downgrades education for all children, undermines educators and parents. We think it will cause harm to children, with their details being digitally stored for anyone to use without permission.

The Government responsed to this petition on 4th February 2026 (View Full Response)
The Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill delivers on manifesto promises and will make progress towards the Opportunity Mission to break the link between young people’s background and future success.

Allow charities to rescue dogs with docked tails under the Animal Welfare Bill - 23,139 Signatures

We ask Parliament to include an exemption in the Animal Welfare (Import of Dogs, Cats and Ferrets) Bill for registered charities and approved, responsible rescue organisations to rehome adult, disease tested dogs, who were previously docked as working hunting dogs abroad.

The Government responsed to this petition on 6th January 2026 (View Full Response)
We will work with stakeholders to consider appropriate exemptions as we deliver the relevant regulations. Exemptions will need to be finely balanced against the risk of creating loopholes.
