Yay!
Things are going well.
Hoping to see France meet the milestone since that’s where the focus of the campaign was.
I wish I could sign from the UK.
From video gaming to card games and stuff in between, if it's gaming you can probably discuss it here!

A UK petition is in the works. But it might take a month or two until that goes online.
Didn’t they have one already when the Tories were like “nah let the free market decide”
Yes there was one but the Tories didn't have anything to do with it closing, at least not directly. If an election happens all open petitions are closed as a matter of process, because "it's a new parliament". And then you need to resubmit.
Also, the petitions committee told the Tories that their response was bullshit and they needed to give a proper one. But that doesn't really matter because of the whole new government thing.
That's great to hear. I was just thinking that Parliament had a similar petition website
Congratulations! 1 more country to beat the threshold requirement (after the Netherlands whose threshold seems will be crossed imminently). France and Ireland seem like solid contenders.
I love the race aspect of this
Glad to see the campaign still going strong. Almost being past the minimum threshold requirement for seven countries is impressive. Hopefully it can reach one million signatures, even if I'm a little skeptical about the EU taking this seriously and passing a decent law. Still, anything that keeps the topic on peoples minds is a good thing.
For people in the US, I think you guys have a similar mechanism (at least at state level) which could be used to put this in place called Ballot Initiatives.
