I couldn’t see a thread here for this.

It’s already at over 30k signatures. Aim is to get it to 100k.

It’s delightful, isn’t it? I periodically click over and get great joy out of watching the numbers suddenly bounce up - it seems to be gaining about 100 signatures every 5 mins or so.

It's great :)
I want to know why Upper Bann (I didn't even know there was an Upper Bann until now) and Great Yarmouth are so far ahead of everywhere else.

Look at us Argyll&Butians go :)
When I signed yesterday evening it was just under 24K

I can easily guess a few of the 82 in mine! But yes, would love to meet the others.

Totally as an aside: does anyone else wish they could see who the other signatories in their constituency are? I would love to meet the 50-odd others who agree with me.

Thanks Leaf. I’ve signed and here’s hoping we can prevent these children being sterilised

Now at 37,054 signatures.

After 2 days it is no 20 out of all the Open petitions (1,812). That is very quick.

Going to make it to 100,000 which will have political impact.

There is also a thread on the petitions board. Good to see its doing so well

borntobequiet · 09/01/2026 23:06

Over 33,000 now.

It's being discussed on the Sandie Peggie thread - have put a signpost to this thread over there.
