Withhold Welsh Support for Nuclear WeaponsCurrently, the UK Government has announced that they will be increasing the stock of Trident by 40%. I, and I expect the people of Wales, believe that this is a worrying move. Is it really in the Welsh public’s interest to be part of this expansion? Does this make us safer? Soon, the Welsh Parliament must ask itself; “What side of history do we want to be on?”. Let’s make it the right side.83 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Tobi Wells

Ban Arms Fairs in the UKOn 9th August 2018 a bomb was dropped on a school bus in Yemen, killing 40 boys aged between six and eleven, just one of countless atrocities that happen every year, fuelled by the global Arms Trade. The UK actively supports this deadly trade by hosting numerous Arms Fairs each year, including the DSEI Arms Fair, one of the world's largest Arms Fairs that happens every two years in London. The British Government officially invites representatives from some of the world's worst human-right's abusing states to these Fairs, including Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Pakistan and Egypt, countries on the UK's own "human rights priority" list. In the past illegal weapons and torture equipment have been discovered on sale in these Arms Fairs, as Mark Thomas recounts in his book 'As Used On The Famous Nelson Mandela'. These Arms Fairs need to be stopped. Every child deserves peace. Arms Fairs Aren't Fair. Let's stop the UK's role in fuelling war.97 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Sam Donaldson

Review preparations for dealing with a nuclear convoy accident in CumbriaNuclear warheads are regularly transported in convoys on public roads to and from the atomic weapon factories at Aldermaston and Burghfield, and RNAD Coulport on Loch Long, where the weapons are stored and loaded onto Trident submarines. A nuclear warhead contains radioactive material and high explosive and this poses serious questions about public safety. The Civil Contingencies Act 2004 requires Category 1 Responders (including Local Authorities) to conduct a risk assessment of potential threats and to keep the public informed. According to the Ministry of Defence (MoD) document, Local Authority and Emergency Services Information (LAESI) Edition 10, if there was a serious accident the MoD would look after the nuclear weapon, but Local Authorities, Emergency Services and the Health Service would be responsible for potentially contaminated casualties, evacuating people nearby and advising many more to stay indoors. We want Cumbria County Council to openly review how prepared the civil authorities are and inform the public about their findings. Then the people of Cumbria can decide whether this transport poses an unacceptable risk.55 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Philip Gilligan

Continue to Remember our War HerosThe trees were planted after the end of the first and second world wars to commemorate the dead soldiers. Unfortunately some of the trees are diseased and the local council are going to remove them. They say they will not replace the trees. It is the centenary of the end of the first world war and therefore shows a lack of respect for the men lost from our town!174 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Janet Sharp

The new 50 pound note to have George Edwin EllisonFirstly, I would like to say that this nation owes everything to the service men and women who have given everything in the defence of the nation. Secondly, if it wasn't for them everything that we know as being British wouldn't have happened without their sacrifice. George Edwin Ellison of the 5th Lancers was born in Leeds, England and was one day away from being safe and surviving the war alive but it was fate that decided, he would have to give all, for his family, friends, and country men to have peace. Lastly, this year is 2018 and its almost been 100 years since George Edwin Ellison laid down his life for us to live in peace, but who was he but a man among meny. The last of our finest, who died in the name of prosperity and peace. I believe that by putting George Edwin Ellison on the new 50 pound note is an amazing way for the nation to remember the people who have given us all.7 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Thomas Dowling
