Petitions do fuck all. I’ll happily protest trump and the king.

Petitions can work if enough people sign. But emails to MPs from their constituents are even more effective.

I guess I’ll have to check back, currently unable to sign :(

I'm not able to sign it. Yet.

Don't bother. Even if the petition reaches the required number, it is read out to an empty chamber and ends up as one line in Hansard. Waste of time unless you are a committed virtue signaller.

In your opinion, does it do any harm to sign?

Just wanting to manage expectations of those who hope for some tangible outcome. If it makes them feel they are actually doing something, then go ahead........

https://you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no-2nd-state-visit-for-donald-trump?bucket=bluesky--27_2_2025_TrumpStateVisit_BSKY01 Apologies, I posted the wrong petition. This one is gaining traction. UK government can take up to a month to approve.

Trump has not behaved well! I am not a fan & this would be an ideal way for the UK to stick two fingers up. But this petition is just petty bollocks. Would it in any way help the UK, Europe or Ukraine? Or given his personality is he more likely to react badly? Intelligence & foresight is needed here
