Allow UK nationals living abroad to donate organs in the UK
Current UK organ-donation policy excludes British nationals who live abroad but die in the UK, even when they have indicated clear consent to donate. The residency restriction means willing donors are excluded, resulting in missed opportunities to save lives.

Include British Citizens Studying Medicine Abroad in NHS Training Prioritisation
The Government should work to ensure the inclusion of British citizens who studied medicine abroad in NHS specialty training prioritisation, regardless of graduation date, so they are not treated the same as overseas applicants without UK ties.
Remove option for family to object to deceased person's wishes to donate organs
We call on the government to amend the Organ Donation (Deemed Consent) Act (AKA Max and Keira's law), so donor decisions—recorded or deemed—are honoured without family or loved ones being able to object to the decision of the deceased person.
Stop ALL legal aid for non British citizens unless worked in UK for 10 years
Stop Legal Aid for non British citizens exceptions would be if you have worked and paid Tax in the UK for at least 10 years continuously
Automatically grant UK citizenship to people affected by historical unfairness
We ask the UK Government to change UK nationality law to automatically grant UK citizenship to people who may have not been granted UK citizenship based on whether their British parent was their mother or father.
Restrict free access to public services to UK citizens only
We urge the Government to restrict free access to public services, eg NHS and education, to UK citizens only. We believe illegal migration will always be an issue due to taxpayer-funded public services. By changing this, we believe we will lose appeal to asylum seekers.
