No more Police and Station cutsIt's stated that if the cuts go ahead people will be able to go into places like cafes and McDonald's to have a chat with the police. This will not work, can you imagine a distressed person sitting in full view in possibly a cafe having to report things that's happened while people are sitting close by eating. This is not what Sadiq Khan was voted in for. It is not the will of the people to continue to cut these most valuable service. There must be no more cuts to the emergency services only more resources put in place and the reopening of all the stations as well as more Police recruited rather than their ridiculous cuts.109 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Diane Faichney

Andy Burnham: Create a Levy for Free Access to JusticeJustice is being denied to the people of Greater Manchester. Legal aid no longer covers most cases involving housing, welfare, debt, immigration or medical negligence. Between 2005 and 2015, the number of not-for-profit legal advice centres in the country fell from 2,226 to 1,462[1]. Greater Manchester went from having nine law centres across our ten boroughs to only having two. But, our ever-defiant community refused to accept this, and together we fought to restore and improve access to justice for people in poverty and vulnerability. It is thanks to this collective effort that the Greater Manchester Law Centre opened its doors in Moss Side last year, and we are making great strides to meet the advice and representation needs of those who need it most. We are fighting, together, for free access to justice. But we need more than words and encouragement, and we welcome your support for making similar legal services available across Greater Manchester. This is Manchester, and we do things differently here. Let’s lead the way and try something new, and implement the idea we dreamed up together. To survive, we need to be creative. Let’s fund our free, face-to-face, high quality legal advice and professional legal representation by imposing a levy on commercial law firms. Yours sincerely, Roz Burgin, Development Worker John Nicholson, Chair Norma Turner, Management Committee And community supporters of GMLC ** See media coverage of this open letter** Solicitors Journal: http://bit.ly/2sXV16h Law Society Gazette: http://bit.ly/2sSVMNg Our press release: http://bit.ly/2ugOGXm [1] http://www.fabians.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Access-to-Justice_final_web.pdf327 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Roz Burgin

Keep our beach cleanOther than making our beautiful beach look ugly the majority of the rubbish will end up in the ocean which is terrible for the environment and wildlife. It is also dangerous for beach users, left over bottles can be broken and glass can then be easily stepped on bearing in mind most people aren't wearing shoes.364 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Jimmy Pearce

Install fire sprinklers in all high rise buildings in LondonWe recognise that an effective response to the horrific events at Grenfell Tower is not forthcoming from the Central Government or the Local Council, and that therefore the responsibility for safety of Londoners, the old, the poor, the young and everyone else falls to the relevant authorities with the largest democratic mandate from us. We therefore call on the Greater London Authority, and it's head the Mayor of London as well as London Councils to fit out all high rise blocks in Greater London that do not have fire sprinkler systems installed with fire sprinklers as soon as practically possible by the end of this year and if necessary using public funds. We also ask that the London Assembly to hold the relevant authorities to account on this matter, to make sure that all Londoners feel safe enough to sleep in their homes by the end of the year.346 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Concerned London Residents

An Inquest NOT a Public Inquiry for the Grenfell Tower Fires.There is much evidence that "the political decision to appoint inquiries into public crises is strongly influenced by short-term blame avoidance considerations, media salience and government popularity." (Reflection in the Shadow of Blame: When Do Politicians Appoint Commissions of Inquiry? - The British Journal of Political Science, Volume 40, Issue 3 July 2010, pp. 613-634). An event such as the Grenfell Tower fire, with its clear implications of Government Minister involvement and possible culpability, requires an inquest which is truly independent from government; not set up and controlled by government. The right to life under Article 2 of the Human Rights Act requires that an effective and proper investigation be carried out into all deaths caused by the state. In particular the right requires that such an investigation must be: * Independent; * Effective; * Prompt; * Open to public scrutiny; and* * Support the participation of the next-of-kin. It is clear from historical evidence that public inquiries do not achieve these requirements. Since the appointment of a public inquiry is typically made by government ministers, events that involve allegations of blame on the part of the relevant minister are less likely to be investigated by a public inquiry48,605 of 50,000 SignaturesCreated by Brendan Russell-Cooper

Changing cannabis lawsCannabis has been proven to have huge medicinal benefits, for lots of chronic and terminal conditions. The health benefits should out weigh the draconian laws on the Isle of Man. Jersey are doing it, so we don't need permission from the UK. Like they have said we do. Please sign and lets not only try to change for medicinal purposes but for possession, the amount of money saved through prison, legal fee's police time, money and resources.651 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Gavin Organ
