The threshold now is the lead signature plus five, so we've gone to six. We reckon that by having six, that will reduce the petition load from, on average now, about 15,000 to around 7,500. About 7,500, give or take, of the petitions currently get less than six signatures.
As far as your other question is concerned, we did debate whether a member of Parliament should add their name.

Again, we're a representative democracy, aren't we? We're not delegates, so I do think the system is better for what we've put forward.
