The UK Parliament petitions website is an official online petition platform run by the Government of the United Kingdom and the Parliament of the United Kingdom that enables members of the British public to create and support proposals for consideration by the House of Commons. While the House of Commons' Petitions Committee reviews all petitions that receive 100,000 signatures or more, reaching this threshold does not guarantee a parliamentary debate. However, the Government is required to respond to all petitions that receive over 10,000 signatures.
