We think the limit of 1,350 should be raised. Many commonwealth citizens would commit long term and positively contribute to British Society.
It is reported the UK Armed Forces is losing an average of 300 more members than they recruit each month. I believe it makes little sense to limit commonwealth citizen recruits, including limiting the Royal Navy to only 300 per year. According to the Defence Journal, the Royal Navy and British Army only achieved 60% & 63% of its target recruitment respectively last year. I believe Commonwealth applicants who are motivated and willing to serve our nation should not be restricted from joining the UK military.

Lift the ban of face tattoos in our military.
With our military actively lacking personnel, we think there should not be ignorant rules in place refusing citizens with tattoos on the face from serving. We think it’s preventing many people who simply want a better future and people who want to serve our country from joining the Armed Forces, at a time when we lack the number of personnel we need. We believe that a person should be able to serve as long as they are fit enough to serve, whether that's a man or woman. We consider that tattoos do not define a person unless obscene or offensive. Many would die for our country even.

Create stricter rules where the defence of automatism is used, How many cases are not being brought to trial because prosecutors have lost confidence that they can challenge evidence? How aware are the police, while they are investigating a case, about people invoking automatism?
While the legal system rightly recognises that a person who acted involuntary due to a medical condition or external factor may not be morally at fault, this does not change the fact that real harm has been caused. The current system often leaves victims without justice, compensation, or closure. This creates a sense of injustice in the legal process while we protect the rights of defendants, we risk overlooking the suffering of innocent individuals. It’s not about punishing the blameless accused it’s about recognising the rights and needs of victims, and ensuring they are not forgotten in the pursuit of legal fairness
