What the petition asks
Introduce a monthly Public Prime Minister’s Questions (PMQs) session where citizens—not MPs—can directly ask the Prime Minister questions, selected through an independent, transparent, and diverse process.
Public PMQs would boost democratic engagement by giving ordinary citizens a direct line to the Prime Minister. An independent panel would select a diverse range of questions, asked live in a televised session. This open format ensures voices from all walks of life are heard, holds leadership to account, and builds public trust. It's a bold step toward a more transparent, inclusive democracy—one where power listens to the people.
