Deadline 10 May 2026, created by H Watson

#NewPetition

Employers do not have to implement GP and Occupational Health advice on workplace adjustments if it is not "reasonable", leaving disabled and unwell workers unprotected. We call for a law requiring employers to follow medical recommendations unless they can prove it’s objectively impossible.

ROYGBIV to create the

#RejectedPetition
Rejected petition: Replace indigo with purple in ROYGBIV to create the ROYBPV categorisation.
The Government should officially recognise purple instead of indigo in the traditional ROYGBIV colour sequence taught in schools and used in public educational materials.Indigo is outdated and extremely confusing, it no longer reflects how colour is perceived in modern education, design or science.

Rejected petition: "Get rid of the petitions site"

#RejectedPetition
Rejected petition: Get rid of the petitions site
The petitions site has always been an ignored 'democratic' tool, where petitions with millions of signatures are shunned out without any consideration from the Government. It is insulting to lie to citizens about their ability to influence policy, and this site should therefore be removed.

I would like to get some sort of speeding camera or bumps on my street specifically the bend as my house is the first one that would get hit.

We consider this issue time critical, a quick resolution to permanently demolish the bridge and reinstate the road is required. Given the decades of delays and ineffective management leading to this point it is considered that Government/House of Commons support is required to expedite a solution.
