Petitions had to stop because of the recent general election. Once a new Petitions Committee is set up by the House of Commons, petitions will start again.

Closed petition Revoke the 6 person ban on gatherings

Reverse the 'Rule of Six' ban on gatherings of more than 6 people as, due to other implemented rules, it is quite frankly stupid and not going to work. You are sending children back to school with minimum social distancing and, in some cases, in bubbles of more than 200 other students.

More details

You allow weddings and funerals to continue taking place with social distancing, so why can’t we meet friends out of a bubble when socially distancing? It’s a stupid law and will have no effect what do ever if you are going to send young people back to school.

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.

We’re waiting for a new Petitions Committee
