UK Petitions Data

This is a complete dump of the UK Government and Parliament Petitions website data, updated every 30 minutes. It includes geographical voting data.

This also includes a complete machine-readable dump of the old petitions.number10.gov.uk website that started it all.

This data is published under the OGL.

Current State

Done:

  • A complete dump of the full petitions data for every public petition for every government
  • A complete dump of petitions.number10.gov.uk converted into the same format as the modern petitions website
  • Automatic hourly updates by a CircleCi job
  • Vote counts by country and constituency

Not done:

  • More petition sources
  • Automatically building an sqlite DB
  • A nice interface to search/browse the data

Pull requests to fix things welcome.
