Currently, the Government has no plans to legislate to make it a crime for a person to leave someone on their own who may be vulnerable, in danger and in need help.

Protect legal right to support for children with SEND - 5,303 Signatures

(Estimated Final Signatures: 25,401 - 787 added in the past 24hrs)

I believe that the Government’s proposed SEND reforms could limit EHCPs, weaken legal rights, replace individual plans with packages, reduce appeals, and remove school choice. In my view, children could be left without the support they need as a result.

Abolish interest charges on student loans - 21,772 Signatures

(Estimated Final Signatures: 24,935 - 30 added in the past 24hrs)

Cancel interest charges on all student loans. We believe placing this burden on the backs of those that want to succeed in life is abhorrent and short-sighted. These charges penalise our brightest and best, the very people that contribute the most to society.

The Government responsed to this petition on 23rd March 2026 (View Full Response)
Student loans are heavily subsidised by government. To be fair to taxpayers and low earners, those who financially benefit should contribute to the cost. Adding interest to loans is one way to do this
