Bring Back John InverdaleJohn Inverdale's anchorage of Today at Wimbledon has over the past ten years become a British institution, as fundamental to the British summer as Wimbledon itself, PIMMS, Strawberries and Cream or test cricket. A misjudged and ill advised comment two years ago should not be the undoing of a career which has brought pleasure to millions, and the license fee paying public should not be deprived of his easy wit and charm. Claire Balding may try her best, but is absolutely no substitute - John's absence is starkly clear and felt by contributors and viewers alike. Lets have less of the trial by social media knee-jerk reactions and read something into the will of the silent masses - much of the target audience have no interest in taking to twitter to show support... this though should not be interpreted as a lack of it but just a sign of the times.137 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Bob Morrison

Protect Peckham - Article 4 Deputation to Cabinet members Tues 21st JulyThe recent change to planning legislation means that permission is no longer required for businesses to change use, even in conservation areas. Rye Lane is be likely to be targeted by large chains looking to take advantage of this change. The problem is that this will put huge pressure on rents, pressure which many local, cherished independents are not likely to survive. The Direction will give time to planning officers to consider proposals in accordance with the development plan. We want Rye Lane to continue serving all its diverse Londoners, and supporting local creative economies, not letting them be priced out of Peckham.1,614 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Rebecca McCutcheon

Help us cross the road safely!Guideposts Trust runs a day community service, and our service users- all of whom have a Learning Disability- have to cross the road here daily. Thousands of cars speed down this busy road every single day, which makes finding a safe space to cross over extremely difficult and dangerous. Alongside this, almost every office/company situated in Two Rivers crosses here too, so we know we aren't alone. Please sign our petition today and secure a safer environment for those who live and work in the affected area.359 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Emily Huckstep

PAGAN AND DRUID RECOGNITION IN HOSPITALS AND CARE HOMES DIGNITY IN CAREWe, as a growing belief section of the community feel we are under represented marginalised and ignored with in these settings and encounter intolerance and ignorance and call for an end to this and our diversity to be celebrated and officially accepted and staff educated to know about our systems of celebration of life and death and care of our sick and our elders It is gravely important our belief systems are respected and represented with in health and care settings and our community tolerated and allowed our dignity. recently a druid priestess was in a nhs hospital in the north midlands during summer solstice, one of our holy high days of the pagan wheel of the year, and was subjected to verbal intolerance and taunting by some members of staff who encouraged patients to join in, been likened to as a Satanist and weird and also told we sacrifice animals, all of these nothing to do with the pagan and druid beliefs, the priestess was so affronted she raised it with the CQC and hospital chaplaincy and official complaints are in process594 of 600 SignaturesCreated by Jacky Barfoot

Ban Legal highs in Norhern IrelandThese are the people who have so much potential yet they throw away their money on nothing but a bag of chemical which at times can lead to death and many other things. At the end of the day this is the society your living in, would you rather live in a dangerous society with people running about of their heads on drugs, or a place without drugs, a safer and happier environment7 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Megan Mckeegan

Don't let Camelot Ruin the LotteryThere has been no consultation with the public to my knowledge. A lot of people live in hope of improving their lives with a lottery win. Camelot's argument that there will be bigger jackpots because there will be more roll overs may be factual but I'm sure most people would rather invest in the lottery as it stands. At present the odds on winning the top prize is approx. 13 million to 1. The new lottery due to start in October will make the odds 45 million to 1 and therefore make even the smaller prizes so much harder to win. Let's stop this before it happens and we will all have a better chance of winning.45 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jenny Youens

"Save North Tyneside's Green Spaces"At the 2013 consultation on preferences for growth in North Tyneside to 2032, 37% of respondents expressed a preference for seeking other options rather than build any new homes, and a further 47% preferred working with neighbours to reduce the requirement to 10-12,000 homes. Only 10% of respondents expressed a preference for building 16,000 homes. The council have selected this option and the Draft Local Plan 2015 sets out plans to build 16,000 extra homes in this plan due to be agreed in 2015. The difference between the chosen growth option and those preferred by the vast majority of respondents is approximately 5000 homes. This is the number of homes planned to be built at two important greenfield sites at Murton and Killingworth Moor. We believe that North Tyneside Council's decision to adopt the higher growth model goes against the clearly expressed view of respondents to the 2013 consultation for no new homes or fewer new homes to be built. We are calling for the Draft Plan to be re-written based on the preferred low / no growth model, and remove proposed plans for 5000 new homes.287 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Albert Boyd

SAVE 40 HEALTHY TREES FROM BEING FELLED IN CASTLEFIELDS PARKCastlefields Park is habitat for buzzards, owls, squirrels, songbirds, turtle doves, bats, and insect life, and mass tree removal will disturb them greatly. The birds require high trees in which to perch; the trees are a precious asset to the park and the community. Please sign the petition and also email your concerns to [email protected].
