allow freedom of movement for immigrantsI believe people should be given freedom to go where they want and do as they please and this includes immigrants because they're people to and I believe that every human deserves the same amount of respect and dignity, I mean just because they're poor and they might come in your country doesnt mean they're bad people infact I believe that the people who don't want immigrants aren't good people7 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Samuel Thornton

Call for a three option referendum in the Brexit leave deal. Accept/decline/stayThis is important as many voters feel mislead after the referendum. This will give the whole of the UK time to understand what is really on offer at the end of negotiations. Will immigration be reduced, how much money will we really have available after withdrawal. This will ensure Brexit negotiations will focus on what has been promised, and show the voters what is on offer.24 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Gavin Brett

Give Pro-EU Brits & EU nationals asylum status to live in Independent ScotlandFor too long, we have been a passively friendly society, saying to our UK friends: as long as the UK stays in the EU, we won't leave you. It's often meant we have stood neutral between different values. And that's helped foster a narrative of right-wing extremism and grievance. This Petition will conclusively turn the page on this failed approach. It appears that our friends are in dire need of our help and as a friendly, cultural nation that benefits from all sorts of nationalities from across the world. We need to send a message that we will not allow those unwillingly forced into making their lives more miserable then it already is for them. We hope that the likes of David Cameran understands that this referendum has already caused instability across not only the entire UK but Europe as well. Thanks to this Referendum and the result. It has screwed over many people in not only Scotland but those living in the UK which is all thanks to far-right british nationalism and the propaganda that came with it. We believe a message needs to be sent for those who need help and not let them dead on track to major politcal clashes that will cause bubbles to burst. This pig beared referendum has cause enough damage and we would like to see our future not as a hateful and spiteful independent Scotland but a country that cares about the future of generations to come for all those who live here, including the Welsh. Thank you. - Extremezero the friendly Scottish misanthrope. P.S. There is a hidden message in the description for those who want to cheer up.6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Extreme Zero

Keep UKIP OUT of No 10As British and most of all being human, we have no room in our society for racism, it is a backward policy. We have hope that entry of a racist party into Downing Street is not possible, as the electorate is now becoming more cautious. However the result of the 23rd gives us cause to act. We need to protect this country for the greater good.18 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ina Shambles

'Play in Auschwitz'? - No Thanks!The Second World War is an important event in human history, it's still recent and the implications and suffering from it are still unfolding. It's something we need to teach our children about, helping them to understand the consequences of hatred and giving power to groups motivated by racism. This 'game' was not designed for educational purposes but is a shameful exploitation of the suffering of millions. It should be shut down immediately, and Google should have an open policy on the development and sale of such 'games'. Genocide is not a game.39 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Susan Mansi

Stop Scottish Councils Investing In The Arms TradeWeapons kill people. The companies that manufacture weapons profit from selling them to states which kill people. A more peaceful world means less weapons are required which, in turn, would hurt the profits of arms manufacturers and the dividends of public money investments. We should not be relying on dividends to help fund our local authorities when those dividends only increase as more weapons are sold. This is morally wrong!

Reinstate Kenny Baileys full benefit entitlementKenny Bailey suffers from severe memory loss problems and is paralysed down one side of his body, he has suffered a stroke, the result of this meant that he lost the right side of his head, following a DWP fit for work assessment the DWP told him he is fit for work. His benefits have now been cut and he loses £156 per fortnight. DWP have told him he must now seek work, this guy can not work or play with his family, DWP failed him by stating that he can walk 200 yards unaided and is able to get up from the chair. For this guy to attend appointments he needs to write every appointment down or he would forget where and when his appoints are. Therefore the DWP should re-instate the full entitlement of benefits to Kenny Bailey and offer him a full apology following the misjudgement of a DWP medical.53 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Craig Weekes

UOL & SU: New Refugee ScholarshipThe UK government has failed to effectively aid the millions of people fleeing uncertain futures in war zones so Lincoln students need to take action. In the UK, whilst we do not enjoy free undergraduate education, we have a system in place to ensure we receive a world-class standard of education that is available to everyone. Around 30 British academic institutions already offer some form of free education or aid service to refugees, the University of Lincoln and its student union should continue to lead morally as well as academically. We have seen an unprecedented level of human movement from the Middle East and North Africa to Europe due to civil war and economic hardship. Many of these refugees are young people, many of them are educated to a high standard and all of them had to leave for fear of the own lives. Our universities societies, by their members own admissions, are already well funded and supported. We also enjoy hosting one of Lincoln's premier venues, The Engine Shed, and we will soon see a new multi-million pound technology building. The University and its SU are not short of money and you cannot put a price on human life or a good education. Sign this petition and ensure that a young person gets the future that we all deserve.42 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jimmy Morris-Knight

David Cameron initiate an official enquiry into Islamophobia in the London Mayoral ElectionThe election has been marred by Islamophobic claims made against the Labour Candidate for The London Mayoral Election. This has brought British Democracy into disrepute and will exacerbate distrust in and disillusionment with the electoral system and UK Government by both Islamic people and other minorities. This sets a dangerous precedent for future elections, will divide society further, will increase a sense amongst British minorities that they cannot expect fair and just treatment from British Government and reduce the sense amongst many that there is any point in engaging in democracy. It may in addition increase the risk of instability in The UK.36 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Sheelagh Stewart

Campaign to make it easier for people to die in their own homes.In a recent survey 82% want to die in their own homes but only 18% actually are able to do this. Learn from organisations like Colchester & Tendring "Single Point" a joined up service who made it possible for my Mother to stay at home until she passed away. As I work in this field I knew how the system worked re the Mental Capacity act assessments worked and we were able to avoid a 3rd hospital admission. The out of hours service do not have access to her preferred place of care notes but as she was able to express her wishes despite her dementia my Mother got what she wanted, we saved the taxpayer money and gave her the wish to die at home. It was not an easy choice for us to make but I have no regrets. She died with dignity and respect and she passed peacefully away in her own bed, with family present who were chatting to her despite her being unconscious and holding her hand. Now isn't that all any of us can ask for. The Health and social services system is geared to hospital/nursing/residential homes so under the current system you need to be really clued up to navigate through "the Care Act 2014". Please make it easier for a family/friends/neighbours/carers to assist patients to make an informed choice. Make more information available about the kind of support they could have and training opportunities as needed in how to care for someone at the end of their life, emotionally, physically and spiritually. Please train more community carers in end of life (palliative) care and make emotional support available for all who do this work. Let's get back to community caring rather than just caring being a business.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Pauline Bacon
