Petition change to e-petition rules

More details

The e-petitions rules previously have stated that any petion that achieves 200 or more signatures would receive a personal response. The few people in the UK who retain faith in our democracy in light of recent events, do need to know that a petition has at least been looked at. The reinstatement of this rule would let the undersigned know they have been heard.

About petition data

The data shows the number of people who have signed the petition by country as well as in the constituency of each Member of Parliament. This data is available for all petitions on the site. It is not a list of people who have signed the petition. The only name that is shared on the site is that of the petition creator.
