Open Petition since 2nd July 2025

Stop HMRC implementing making tax digital and enforcing quarterly submissions - 20,024 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 20,093 - 18 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.

(Estimated Final Signatures: 19,616 - 90 added in the past 24hrs)

We would like for the Government to grant interim exemptions for all dogs seized from their owners under the XL Bully ban who have no history of aggression. This could allow for dogs to remain in the custody of their owners at home and not in kennels.

Inquiry into sexual violence in NHS hospitals - 19,401 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 19,529 - 5 added in the past 24hrs)

I want the Government to have an inquiry into sexual violence being reported in NHS hospitals, to come up with a plan to reduce incidents.

The Government responsed to this petition on 23rd October 2025 (View Full Response)
Sexual misconduct in NHS settings is unacceptable. We are working with system partners to eradicate sexual misconduct in the NHS. The Government has no plans to launch an inquiry at this time.

Require schools to let children use the toilet at all times in the school day - 19,317 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 19,445 - 9 added in the past 24hrs)

Make it mandatory for schools to allow students to go to the toilet at all times throughout the school day when they need to and do not lock toilets so that they aren’t accessible during certain times of the day.

The Government responsed to this petition on 26th November 2025 (View Full Response)
Schools are responsible for setting policies, including around toilet use. They must do this in line with national behaviour guidance, and in a way which treats all pupils with dignity and respect.
Open Petition since 11th August 2025

Continue Parental Responsibility Automatically when disabled children turn 18 - 18,941 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 19,029 - 2 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.

Ban Government bodies from describing taxpayer-funded services as “free” - 11,174 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 18,518 - 43 added in the past 24hrs)

Ban Government departments and public bodies from describing all tax-payer funded services as “free” and require clearer terms such as “tax-payer funded” or “publicly funded” in all official communications, guidance, and campaigns.


Open Petition since 10th November 2025

Rescind recognition of a Palestinian state and respect the Montevideo Convention - 7,196 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 17,118 - 85 added in the past 24hrs)

The UK should rescind its recognition of a Palestinian state, which we believe does not meet the criteria of the Montevideo Convention. We believe recognition rewards terrorism, undermines peace, and falls short of longstanding international norms.

Make impersonating military service/wearing unearned medals a criminal offence - 16,250 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 16,349 - 1 added in the past 24hrs)

The Government responsed to this petition on 9th December 2025 (View Full Response)
There are currently no plans for the government to introduce additional criminal offences for impersonation of military service or wearing unearned medals.

Criminalise & legally require schools to tackle bullying in & out of school - 16,047 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 16,281 - 3 added in the past 24hrs)

We urge the Government to make repeated bullying over the age of 10 a specific criminal offence, and to make it a legal requirement for schools to act on all forms of bullying, inside and out of school, and mandate mental health reviews after bullying-related self-harm.

The Government responsed to this petition on 26th November 2025 (View Full Response)
Bullying is never acceptable. Schools have duties to prevent and address it, and we continue to promote best practice whilst also improving early mental health support for young people.
Open Petition since 5th August 2025

(Estimated Final Signatures: 16,170 - 17 added in the past 24hrs)

We propose a statutory safeguarding framework that facilitates proactive information sharing where a child is at risk due to a parent or caregiver’s known history, even when current laws may not trigger disclosure.
