- 106,653 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 124,869 - 110 added in the past 24hrs)
We urge the Government to exempt BN(O) visa for Hongkongers from the proposed immigration reforms. We think the current ILR terms must remain unchanged:
1. Five years of UK residency
2. B1 level English proficiency
3. Passing the Life in the UK Test

• farrowing crates for sows

Legally enshrine the right of adults to physically transition using NHS services
- 80,842 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 85,869 - 323 added in the past 24hrs)
Introduce a law to legally protect the right of those aged 18 and over to transition using NHS services. This should specifically cover physical transition, including hormone treatment and surgery, as otherwise I believe it could potentially be interpreted as including conversion therapy.

Many UK animal rescues operate without clear legal oversight, creating opportunities for unethical practices. Some rescues have been linked to supporting irresponsible breeding, neglecting animals, or misusing public donations.

- 55,726 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 59,553 - 32 added in the past 24hrs)
Only people who live in Greater London are allowed to vote for candidates in the Mayoral elections. We think London carries so much influence across the globe and the majority of UK residents have no say as to who 'heads up' and manages our great city, and we should. London belongs to us all.

- 44,161 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 54,070 - 88 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.
