Home fee status for BN(O) students after 3 years continuous stay in the UK
- 14,670 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 14,861 - 4 added in the past 24hrs)
We believe the UK Government's policy requiring five-year residency for BN(O) visa holders for home fee status for tuition is unfair, and that home fee status should be available after 3 years continuous stay in the UK.

- 2,613 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 14,830 - 70 added in the past 24hrs)

- 8,759 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 14,558 - 58 added in the past 24hrs)
Martial Arts is a popular sport for children. Yet dedicated, passionate, talented students can no longer use them for GCSE. I think Martial Arts are wholly inclusive, appeal to all genders, all ethnic backgrounds and children with SEN. They can help promote fitness, self-discipline and respect.
Reduce Vehicle Tax for cars aged between 20 and 40 years old
- 12,845 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 14,124 - 15 added in the past 24hrs)
Under the current rules a car does not become exempt from Vehicle Tax until it is at least 40 years old. There are vehicles within the 20 to 40 year age bracket that are well loved, modern classics and without a reduction in tax, we may see these vehicles disappear from our roads.

According to the National Day Nurseries Association, the average nursery paid business rates of over £21k a year from April 2023, but costs can be higher. Even charitable settings only receive an 80% relief. We want all early years settings in England to be exempt from business rates.

- 13,067 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 13,253 - 12 added in the past 24hrs)
Terrorism legislation should be amended to require all broadcasters regulated by Ofcom to describe all terrorist organisations proscribed in the UK and their operatives as “terrorists” and not by any descriptor, such as “militants”, which does not make their terrorist nature clear.

(Estimated Final Signatures: 13,154 - 93 added in the past 24hrs)
We want the Government to hold a Statutory Public Inquiry into the extent to which Gender Identity Ideology and Queer Theory have become prevalent in public services, and the impacts. We believe Education, the NHS, and the broader public realm have been cognitively captured resulting in harm.
