The erosion of rights for trans and intersex people in the UK is not just a concern for those directly affected — it is a warning sign for everyone who values freedom, dignity, and equality under the law. When a government begins to target a minority group through legal rulings, policy rollbacks, and inflammatory rhetoric, it sets a precedent that endangers the rights of all citizens. History shows that the marginalisation of one group often paves the way for broader authoritarianism. Standing up for trans and intersex people is standing up for a society where everyone’s rights are protected, regardless of gender, identity, or background. Moreover, the UK has long prided itself on being a global leader in human rights and democratic values. The current trajectory — condemned by international human rights bodies and legal experts — threatens that reputation and undermines our commitments on the world stage. If we allow the dehumanisation and legal erasure of trans and intersex people to continue unchecked, we risk becoming a society defined by fear, division, and injustice. This is a moment for the public to act — not just out of solidarity, but out of a shared interest in preserving the kind of inclusive, fair, and compassionate country we all want to live in.

Puy du Fou wants to build a theme park in the tiny village of Bucknell near Bicester, Oxfordshire. The proposed park would occupy an area of productive farmland bigger than Hyde Park, destroying green space, natural wildlife habitats and ancient rights of way. Puy du Fou UK aims to attract 1.47mln visitors per year. Because of where the park would be situated, we know the British public will drive en masse instead of using public transport. The park would be served by a single B-road, the B4100, an accident-prone road that is notoriously congested every day. This congestion causes backlogs for miles around including on the M40, A43 and A34. Such an increase in traffic will spell daily misery for anyone travelling in the wider area, not just the locals. Shortages in the electricity grid currently cause serious local problems including outages and even school closures, while Thames Water does not have sufficient capacity to serve much-needed new homes at present.  Tell Cherwell District Council to say No Puy du Fou UK, sign the petition! https://www.no2pdfouuk.com/

Essex County Council is closing Bishops Hill on 31 July 2025 without any consultation with community groups.  No future plans for the building are available.  Although of significant historical importance as the school built in 1906 for the Hutton Poplars Children’s Home for 700 destitute children, the building is not listed.  It could be demolished and the land made available for redevelopment. We wish to keep this heritage site open, and for it to become a vibrant, multi-purpose resource for all the community.

Lots of people are deaf and being sent to special schools if everybody learnt Sign language from a young age then young people could have an education at a main stream school. My dad is deaf and I have learnt basic sign language he is very old school so would prefer to write down with pen and paper. I would like to see all schools teaching sign language so people who are deaf can be included in society more and valued for the people they are and not segregated because they are deaf.

Many locals, holidaymakers and tourists fill up all the remaining car parks very quickly as soon as the sun comes out. This then results in many parking illegally, one roundabouts, double yellow lines, junctions, pavements and anywhere they can fit their vehicle. The cost of parking in Bournemouth can be expensive anyway so many risk parking on verges etc. as the fine will be £35 if paid within 30 days. This is not a deterrent at all and adding permits for all local residents will just add to the cost of living crisis we are all being affected by.

We would like the UK government to implement climate change and protecting the earth into all school curriculums to ensure that our generation are informed about the choices they make and the impact we have on our planet. From pollution, litter, plastic waste, food production to planting and sustainability.  If lots of people sign our petition we will be able to make sure that children in the UK will know about how humans affect the Earth every day.  This year we have learnt about climate change with the Zero Carbon Schools programme. We learnt about different places like the Amazon rainforest, Ethiopia, Wales, and the Solomon Islands and how they are badly affected from climate change. It is terrible and detrimental. We learnt about ways we can make changes in our school community. We have taken action against climate change by reducing food waste in our school.  Our generation should learn about climate change by doing projects like we did in zero carbon schools because it is important. It will help us all learn how to stop polluting and protect our oceans.  We would like you to help us with climate change in schools so we can help the Earth.  It will make the world a better place for us and generations ahead. 

This isn't just about one gambling shop, it's about protecting our community.  Gambling shops may seem harmless, but they often lead to real harm and put people are risk every single day. The shop is located where children walk to school, where families shop and where people trying to recover from addition are just trying to live their lives. Within just a one-mile radius, we already have four bookmakers (two Betfred branches, a William Hill, and a Ladbrokes) as well as a gambling arcade (Be Lucky). This is already a lot more than what is healthy or necessary for a local area. We all know someone who has struggled with money, addiction or mental health. Opening a gambling venue right in the centre of our community will only make that worse. Once it's there, it's hard to undo the damage. By signing this petition, you are saying: - We care about each other  - We don't want to see our neighbours fall into harm  - We want to keep our high street safe You are standing up for: - The mental and financial wellbeing of your neighbours - The safety and character of your local high street - A community that values support, opportunity and care over exploiting vulnerable people You have the voice to stop this, please don't wait until it's too late

Many of those stranded travelled for essential, compassionate reasons: to care for loved ones or attend funerals. Now, they are stuck in an increasingly dangerous situation with flights vanishing and borders tightening. While the UK arranged repatriation flights for citizens in Israel, those in Iran have been left behind. No information. No support. No safe route out. We ask the Government to follow the lead of other countries to get UK citizens out of Iran by: • Organising safe routes home for British citizens in Iran • Providing immediate consular support and information • Ending the double standard in crisis response Don't abandon them. Bring them home.

As a resident of the Aboyne and Dinnet community, I care deeply about the safety and wellbeing of our residents, especially our children and other vulnerable road users. Every day, I witness vehicles speeding through our town, creating unsafe conditions that deter families and locals from engaging in walking or cycling. It's time to take necessary action to make our streets safer and our community more active. According to the UK's Department for Transport, reducing the speed limit to 20mph can significantly decrease the likelihood and severity of accidents. In areas where such measures have been adopted, there has been a notable reduction in road casualties. This is a proven strategy to enhance road safety and promote active travel among community members. An adjustment to a 20mph limit would not only improve safety, but also encourage more people to choose walking or cycling. This shift towards active travel can contribute to a healthier lifestyle, reduce traffic congestion, and decrease pollution levels, resulting in a cleaner, safer environment for everyone. It is crucial for Aberdeenshire Council to recognise the importance of implementing this strategy across the whole of Aboyne and Dinnet for the benefit of the entire community. By taking a proactive stance on road safety, we can create a more welcoming and secure environment in Aboyne and Dinnet. Please sign this petition to urge Aberdeenshire Council to adopt these necessary speed limit changes. Together, we can make our roads safer and our community stronger. Thank you for your support!

We only have one planet and we need to protect this precious resource from corporations who want to profit from a land grab. At the present time rural communities are deluged by applications from power companies whose aim is to industrialise the countryside with their solar power stations euphemistically called “farms”.
