MODERATORS
This will sound incredibly pessimistic but I have a feeling the parliament will just do nothing after discussing this.
It's not pessimistic if it's the likely outcome.
Realistic more like. Half of the petitions are dumb, so they're already conditioned to ignore them. And this one is literally something that just happened. No way they're repealing it immediately.
Best case they roll back some stuff in like 10 years. I read a BBC article about it though and in the "criticism of the act" section they only had quotes from people saying it doesn't go far enough! So I wouldn't hold your breath.
Debates
Petitions which reach 100,000 signatures are almost always debated. But we may decide not to put a petition forward for debate if the issue has already been debated recently or there’s a debate scheduled for the near future. If that’s the case, we’ll tell you how you can find out more about parliamentary debates on the issue raised by your petition.
Welp
I signed it, for all the good it'll do.
