  • Change school summer holiday to 4 weeks
    Because young children don't understand why they have so long off from school and because not all parents are able to spend huge amounts of money on days out, most parents work and it costs a fortune for childcare during the 6 weeks.

  • childrens act 1989
    Because we need parental right to allow grandparents to be able to get it in the same way as same sex parents or step parents. Neither of these are blood relatives. There are over 200.000 grandparents bringing up one or more grandchildren in the UK. We have to go to court to seek permission for a residence order or special guardianship order to also gain parental rights. It can take months and months instead of a trip to local court with downloaded form witnessed by a notary. It all needs to be brought into 2017. The Children's Act is to protect children and this isn't. I have my grandson due to his mothers death and mother and fathers substance abuse. I have no legal rights for my grandson. This all needs to change.

  • Increase Edinburgh Fringe National News Coverage
    Each morning many of us tune in to listen or watch the headlines of the day. BBC Breakfast news is a favourite with thousands of people tuning in each day. This is then followed by the weather report and a large section on sport. This is something I would like to see change. I would like to see better coverage of Arts & Cultural events happening across the UK, promoting Health and well being, community engagement and education. The Edinburgh Fringe is arguably the greatest Cultural event in the world and draws people from across the globe to see a wide range of performances and yet has not been mentioned during the peak times on national television. However, Wimbledon for example, was a daily feature throughout July, guest speakers on BBC Breakfast, Tennis activities and games throughout the show made constant reference to this event. Yet no mention is made to an event that has a much greater audience. ( 473,372 attended Wimbledon 2016, 2,475,143 tickets were sold for Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2016). If you would like the BBC to increase its coverage of the Edinburgh Fringe, informing us of the wide range of acts; street performances, comedy, music, dance, theatre, magic - the impact the festival has so much more then please sign this petition and let's change how the arts is reported in the media!

  • Relatives rights to Legal Aid for Inquests.
    These bodies bring in the best legal representation, often paid for by the public purse. In most cases relatives are left to fend for themselves at a time when they are still grieving for their loved ones. Relatives usually have limited means and little knowledge of legal procedures and will find the inquest intimidating and confusing. Most people will be shocked to find, as I did, that although you wish to represent your loved one you have no disclosure rights, requests to the court are often either ignored or misinterpreted. Without legal representation an expert witnesses will not take instructions to provide expert opinions and analysis to support the family’s case. Many relatives like me are struggling to understand a death which could have been avoided at the same time they are trying to come to terms with a recent bereavement. They are unaware of the types of inquest available such as the standard UK inquest or the more in depth and investigative EU Article 2 Inquest. Coroners, although supposedly independent, are often familiar with the other party’s legal representatives and in some cases have worked in the same legal practice. In some cases the coroner works with the state to secure a quick verdict leaving the relatives facing decades of work to secure the truth. We live in a society where criminals have more rights than victims or their families and I believe this injustice needs reversing. Legal Aid funding should be extended to serve bereaved families who deserve to know the truth about how their relative died. http://www.examiner.co.uk/news/grieving-widower-howard-denby-tried-13265128 http://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-news/calls-inquiry-call-over-suicide-6926557 http://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-news/carol-denby-killed-herself-after-6981544 http://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-news/fathers-despair-delays-cps-review-9682318 http://www.itv.com/news/wales/2013-01-14/robbie-powell-death-report-redactions-uncovered-by-wales-this-week/ http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4393976/Asthma-girl-s-parents-call-unlawful-death-ruling.html http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4393976/Asthma-girl-s-parents-call-unlawful-death-ruling.html This is important because for the relatives they need closure and only the truth will give them this and for society in general we have seen too many cover up's and as a consequence many more innocent people have suffered when the truth has been hidden. The loss of Legal Aid has disadvantaged the majority with justice and truth only available to those who can afford to buy their version of it.

  • Keep childrens menus in family pubs
    Family need to be able to feel comfortable going out their local pubs for a meal. Children will not learn how to behave in public places such as restaurants and pubs if parents feel that they cant take them into such places. Families like to socialise and celebrate special occasions... usually with family meals out... local pubs need this business.

  • Change the laws of next of kin status
    Until it happened to me I didn't realize after 28 years together the last 12 as my partners full time carer in that 12 years my partners family had no contact with us her mother then took legal advice to prove I wasn't legal next of kin. People who had not even asked how she was or did we need any help for 12 years were her next of kin I had to fight for a portion of her ashes too from my hospital bed where I Was seriously ill with a life threatening illness. As the law currently stands you have to be married or civil partners neither of which we could do because my partner had severe mental health issues,social anxiety syndrome and agoraphobia. I know for a fact a lot of people are in the very same position I am even if you are classed as next of kin on their medical records it means nothing if they die. Also if you split from your husband/wife and do not divorce they are still legally your next of kin and can demand all your possessions even if they were bought by someone else.Also you can end up homeless if the property is in the deceased persons name. Please sign and share this because you never know what is around the corner
