Corridor care in the NHS

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 4 November 2026

That this House expresses dismay that corridor care has become normalised in NHS hospitals; notes the harm caused to patients from receiving care in inappropriate settings; believes every patient has a right to privacy and dignity; further notes that over 15,000 deaths were associated with long A&E waits in 2025; also notes that staff morale and retention has been devastated by having to provide care in unacceptable, dangerous and undignified conditions; condemns the previous Government for driving emergency services into the ground and allowing corridor care to spiral out of control; recognises that corridor care rates have hit their highest ever levels, with nearly 100,000 instances of corridor care recorded in England in September 2026; further expresses alarm that this figure is likely to rise as the annual winter crisis hits in the NHS in coming months; notes the long delay in publishing corridor care data in the first instance; calls for investment in step-down care, social care and community support to free up thousands of hospital beds and tackle the A&E crisis; and further calls on the Government to protect patients, prevent needless tragedy and end the scandal of 12 hour waits and corridor care within a year.

Introduce new safeguards when police return devices containing intimate images

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 22 September 2026

Introduce legislation requiring police to follow a safeguarding process before returning a seized device containing intimate images or recordings of a complainant, including informing them and allowing them to request that the material is removed or put beyond the device owner’s use. Intimate images or recordings may be discovered on a seized device during a sexual offence investigation. If the investigation does not result in a conviction, there should still be safeguards before that device is returned. Police may need to preserve a forensic copy as evidence, but this should not automatically mean returning access to the original intimate material. Complainants should have clear rights to information, privacy and safeguarding regardless of the outcome of the investigation.

Require Children’s Faces to Be Hidden in Monetised and Publicly Shared Content

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 9 September 2026

We want the UK Government to introduce legislation requiring content creators to hide or obscure the faces of children in publicly shared or monetised online content, protecting children’s privacy and preventing them from having a permanent digital identity created without their informed consent. A child cannot consent to having their face permanently placed online. Once shared, images can be copied, redistributed and manipulated by strangers, including being used to create abusive AI images. Most images found in abusive contexts are reported to originate from social media. We believe children should have a legal right to privacy, with creators required to hide children’s faces in publicly shared or monetised content. Children are not content.

Reduce the UK Census closure period from 100 years to 80 years

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 5 September 2026

We request the Government to reduce the UK Census record closure from 100 to 80 years, retaining safeguards for sensitive information, enabling families, genealogists and researchers to access vital historical records earlier while balancing privacy with the legitimate public interest. UK Census is a vital historical record. 100-year closure denies access. We propose reducing it to 80 years, benefiting genealogists, historians, researchers, schools and the public. Records connect generations and reveal unique details. Earlier access lets families research ancestors while relatives remain alive. Privacy: anyone under 94 when the records open, the information recorded about them would largely describe their childhood circumstances. We believe an extra 20 years privacy is disproportionate.

Review KCSIE to protect trans and intersex students' rights

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 19 August 2026

We think the Keeping Children Safe in Education 2026 guidance is unsafe for trans youth and should be reviewed. For example, mandating active parental involvement in most cases, setting a binary criteria & requiring provision of single-sex toilet facilities unless self-contained individual toilets. We believe that the KCSIE guidance does not adequately protect transgender and intersex students, and is violating their rights, and abusing their vulnerability. We urge the DfE and UK government to revise it to respect students’ gender identities, support use of chosen names and pronouns, provide safe and appropriate access to facilities, and explicitly prevent non-consensual “outing” of trans students, including parents, who may not be supportive. We think this would protect privacy, dignity and equality for every pupil.
