To Put CCTV on all Tube TrainsThese are crime spots and people are being mugged and sexually assaulted daily, 25% of crimes on the LU are committed on the Central Line. CCTV cameras could serve as a deterrent. If a crime is committed at least there will be cameras to show the perpetrator or what crime was committed29 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Bettina Hunt

UK victims of terror let down by GovernmentUppermost among the terrifying sensations for a victim of terrorist attack must be the sudden loss of personal control and equally sudden complete vulnerability. How appalling that these are the very feelings with which many victims and certainly their families have to confront when subsequently they need financial support for inquests and court proceedings. There is no governmental provision for them in these situations. Eastbourne MP Stephen Lloyd has already drawn attention to this situation both inside and outside the House of Commons. He has sponsored an Early Day Motion for Parliamentary attention (link below) He writes : “British citizens who are victims of terrorist atrocities must receive, as a default, the same legal support the state bodies do. “French citizens, for example, if caught up in terrorist attacks, they – and their families – are automatically entitled to state-funded legal representation in court proceedings. “Frankly, the MOJ’s approach to the matter is an insult to all those who have lost loved ones in tragedies such as these. It begs the question; do the French authorities care more about their citizens than we do ours?” [11 June 2019] Stephen Lloyd's Early Day Motion at : https://edm.parliament.uk/early-day-motion/52897/statefunded-legal-representation-for-victims-of-terrorism14 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Colin Clarke

Compulsory Drugs Testing for MPs and LordsEquality under the law - If Fred Bloggs on a council estate was caught in possession of a class A drug he would be arrested and banged up for a few years. Why should MPs be exempt? Professionalism - If a professional gets done for drugs they are removed from their place of work. Michael Gove passed legislation to remove teachers from the profession if they are have been on drugs. Why should MPs be exempt? Judgement - MPs vote on and pass the laws that govern us, any one of them could be PM. How can we trust their judgement if it is clouded by the use of drugs, particularly in the use of nuclear weapons?51 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Peter Bray

New TV licence payments changePeople like myself should be able to set up a new TV licence without having to pay double for the first 6 months if a payment is missed the same protocol as most companies should be followed. In current economic state people should not be forced to pay more than the basic amount when on such low income and shouldn't be only given the options of pay double or don't watch tv.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ashley Waddington

Looming PPI Deadline 29/08/19Claiming back PPI taken from their customers without their consent should not be down to the customers to claim it - It should be the institutions and companies that stole it in the first place to own up and just give it back. The claim process is deliberately complicated and peppered with traps and loopholes and can only really be successfully negotiated by specialist collection companies who charge a huge percentage cut from any recovered money to do so on customers' behalf. Complaining to the Ombudsman is just as complicated and frankly an unnecessary waste of their time. It's not just PPI payments that should be returned to their rightful owners, but also any interest made by the perpetrators PLUS compensation to the victims for not having that money available when they could have used it.16 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Bryn Williams

Bring back public service announcementsAs a child I remember the impact these announcements had on me and many others from my generation. Shocking as they were the impact was instant and effective. This is a very powerful form of advertising and creating these as realistic as possible can only have a scary, yet positive effect on current issues such as knife crime. The country is shaking their heads for solutions, the police are at their wits end and the government are far too slow to respond to this epidemic. We need to educate and reinforce the eternal damage caused by these crimes. Stop pussy footing around trying to protect people and give them a stark, reality shock. Bring back public service announcements.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by W D Kempton

More support for rape survivors!A few years ago I was raped twice by my ex partner. Although I didn’t report him at the exact time it happened, I did report my rape after we split up. Throughout the police process, I was not offered any kind of mental health support by the police or by my GP, I was just put on medication and that was it. The medication didn’t work. The whole process took over a year and a half, and I was then told that the CPS will not be prosecuting and no further action will be taken. That was it. I have been left on my own since. I have been to the GP numerous times to ask for support and therapy and have received nothing. Even after I had started self harming as a way of coping, I have received nothing. No help, no support. There is not enough support available to survivors of rape and domestic abuse, we should not have to fight to get help.98 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Rebecca Ives

Minimum prison education pay.Education in prison provides so much more than knowledge. It can, as a friend said to me, be a pathway to discovery. Education should underpin any plans for reform and rehabilitation. This has to start at the top. Provide the pay that will see those wishing to go to education, but can't afford to, the same opportunities as those that can. How can there be a class divide of life chances in prison?21 of 100 SignaturesCreated by David Breakspear

Royal Commission on Policing and the Criminal Justice SystemOut Criminal Justice System is in Crisis, Crime is on the increase particularly violent crime (knife crime), young people are being sucked into criminality, the Police are desperate for resources and currently underfunded, the Prisons are over crowded and there are many people in prison who shouldn't be and there are many convicted violent criminals who aren't and the Courts are failing in their core duties to protect the public.57 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Eddie Ffoulkes-jones
