I couldn’t see a thread here for this.

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

Going up really fast now - 68,021

KnottyAuty · 11/01/2026 17:04

Woah! I signed at 69111 and when I went back to get the link to share 2 minutes later it was 69339.

This might finally get political attention …

69,456 now.

TwoLoonsAndASprout · 11/01/2026 17:11

70,006 just now. Storming up.

MarjorieWestriding · 11/01/2026 17:17

I checked at 4.15pm and it was 66,167.

At 5.15pm it's 70,361.

That's 4194 in an hour!

Reckon it'll reach 100k by the end of the night?

NotAtMyAge · 11/01/2026 17:17

5 minutes later after @TwoLoonsAndASprout posted it's 70,500

Not impossible at this rate.

Amazing, it's only been up two days.

Thank you for thread.

TwoLoonsAndASprout · 11/01/2026 17:23

Crikey - now over 71,000 - that’s up 1000 in 15 minutes.

Just noticed this one. Ran for 6 months. Got 14 000 signatures

Noting the government weasel words less than 10 months ago that they had no plans to reverse the ban.

Medical trials are not documented, proposed and commissioned overnight, if there are no plans to reverse the ban why would a trial be required?

It’s fascinating seeing the colour change on the map.

I’m so pleased for James Esses to see his well-worded petition be validated like this.

could people outside the UK sign it? I know it asks for UK citizens but I worry there could be fake names etc?

It’s asks for postcode.

I guess the government must have checks they do. I don’t think we can take that on as our responsibility!

Coming up for 80k now.
Looks like people do take experimentation on children seriously.
Wes, are you watching?

I purely love J.K.Rowling. Two tiny sentences and the numbers go up like a pinball machine on speed. 💖
