  • Reverse the decision to close the Flour Mill Pond to anglers
    This decision affects everyone in the village of Greenfield, where the Flour Mill pond has been fished for decades with no reporting of fishers injuring themselves or giving rise to health and safety concerns. The people of Greenfield wish this decision to be overturned and reversed as it was made with no consultation from local people, and against the recommendation of Flintshire County Council officers. This decision is not only destroying the landscape that many love to come and visit, but also the habitats of wildlife in the area and the surrounding environment.

  • Save the Euston and Somer's Town Parks
    Euston Road and Hampstead Road are two highly polluted areas in Central London not far from the Telecom Tower. 12 to15 mature large trees in St. James' Gardens and several more in front of Euston station, highly valuable in combatting pollution damage to our health caused by constant heavy traffic, are to be cut down to make way for a HS2 which is being built to knock 20 mins off a journey to the West Midlands. St. James' Gardens provides a very pleasant haven of tranquility in the midst of a busy, polluted area at the back of Euston Station and supports wildlife- young birds. Historic gravestones and a monument provide an impressive reminder of our history ( sailors intercepting slave ships) in the 19th century. I used to play there when I was a child on the swings, now replaced by a well-used sports pitch; a toddlers' playground also exists. HS2 has been passed by Parliament but is there really NO WAY that this company cannot preserve the scarce bit of beautiful nature that has existed in this area for so many years and gives respite to so many? Furthermore, Camden Council has, apparently of necessity, sold community green space to private developers. Again, in a built-up residential area, these green spaces are precious for adults and children alike : of course, it's the trees again which have to go to make way for the luxury flats. If you value peace of mind and your health, please sign this petition. I can't tell you how much it means to me mentally and physically, to be in a beautiful, quiet space and, judging by the scarves which have carefully been tied round all the trees to be chopped; so do many others.

  • Condemn Donald Trump for pulling out of Paris climate agreement
    This is an international problem, which met with an international solution - and Britain must join the international condemnation of America's terrible, selfish decision. We do not want to live in a world dominated by bullies. We do not want to live in a Britain too scared to do anything America doesn't want. We demand leadership that makes us proud to be British. If Theresa May cannot condemn America's decision to condemn our planet, will she ever stand up for anything? British people stand up for others, and we stand up for what we believe in. We do not want a Prime Minister who licks the boots of the American president. Theresa May must show strong leadership and sign the international letter condemning Donald Trump and his abandonment of the Paris agreement.

  • Protect Wales’ National Parks
    The Welsh Assembly and the Welsh government are considering plans to change how national parks are looked after. But the plans are missing crucial protections that would safeguard Wales’ natural beauty for future generations. Wales is full of breathtaking natural parks, places such as Snowdonia which we all cherish. That’s why we want the Sandford principle retained as an ultimate safeguard so that, when there is an unresolvable conflict of purposes, conservation has the higher priority. We need to insist on full public consultation for any proposed changes to the purposes of National Parks.For more information, feel free to visit the Snowdonia Society and Save National Parks websites.

  • Let our dogs on the beach
    It's important for dogs to be allowed on the beach to have a paddle in the hot weathers even if it's in the evenings When most people have gone home ,because most responsible dogs owner don't take there dogs out in the blistering heat anyway but would be nice after 7 for them to have a paddle and cool down . And most responsible dogs owners clean up after there dogs unlike some humans lately, which annoys me greatly, us dogs owners would really appreciate if this was to be put into consideration,

  • Ban the use of wild animal in circuses
    Wild animals, like lions and tigers, are not meant to live their lives travelling from place to place in small cages, only to be then forced to train for the next circus performance. They deserve to live in much better conditions. Eighteen countries have already banned the use of wild animals in circuses. It's possible for circus organisers to put on an exciting performance without involving wild animals. Polls have shown that Scottish people overwhelmingly support this ban, so it's time for the Scottish Government to put the ban in place. The Scottish Government is currently in consultation to pass this into law. We hope to collect as many signatures as possible. That way we can submit our petition as evidence that the Scottish people care about this cause, and force this bill through. You can read more about the bill here: http://www.parliament.scot/parliamentarybusiness/Bills/104493.aspx We will be submitting our petition as evidence here: http://www.parliament.scot/parliamentarybusiness/CurrentCommittees/104956.aspx

  • BSJA JUNIORS AGE LIMIT
    I think this is important as it becomes unfair towards people who's difference in age is possibly less than a month for some and one of them gets a whole another year on ponies. This needs to change.

  • Ban the Ivory Trade
    With the General Election coming up, Theresa May and the Conservative Party have stated in their latest (2017) manifesto that they will give a "general pledge" to "work with international organisations to protect endangered species and the marine environment." We need more than this to protect the vulnerable creatures, this country's leaders need to live up to our reputation of being a nation of animal lovers and put a total ban on the ivory trade and not bow down to pressure from their colleagues in the party like Lady Victoria Borwich who is the President of The British Antiques Dealers’ Association, and the Conservative MP for Kensington.

  • Stop Animal cruelty
    It's important to acknowledge that animals should be treated equally and should not be put through some of the horrendous things mankind do. Animals can suffer, feel pain, feel love and feel scared they are just like you an I, except we choose to treat them as though they are below us and have no rights.This is totally and utterly wrong we should be the compassionate beings that we are supposed to be, we should treat these animals with love and respect. Your desires and what you want should never be put first if it means putting something in harm and causing suffering; this is what I call selfish. You don't get to say it's worth it because all you had to do was buy it, that animal would have spent most of its life confined without freedom; freedom to be with their family, freedom to run, freedom to be an animal and then only to have its short life end. What's a life if don't get to live it ?

  • Don't sell plants treated with bee-harming pesticides
    Harmful pesticides are killing our bees at an alarming rate. They're currently banned across fields in Europe, but many garden centres are still selling flowering plants that have been treated with the killer pesticides. I'm a beekeeper, and I was really pleased this week when B&Q announced that from Feb 2018 they are going to stop their suppliers from using these pesticides on any of the flowering plants they sell. There's no reason that other garden centres can't introduce the same rule to protect our bees.
