It's important because people need credit to buy houses etc and to percecute somebody for 6 years is absolutely ridiculous, especially for an amount as low as 1 pence. It's a direct attack by the government to keep people poor and to stop people advancing in life.

The changes to local goverment in Cumbria have see the elections to the new council of Westmorland and Furness take place with the 65 new council memebrs elected to represent the wards they have been elected in. However from the majority group that now controls the council the political group will select the leader of the council and the leader the cabinet memebrs. This petition calls for the new Westmorland and Furness Council to hold a public referendum on the question of should Westmorland and Furness change its structure to have a directly elected mayor as its leader that the voting public select rather than the leaded be selected behind closed doors by memebrs of the majority party on the council. A directly elected mayor would enable voters the choice of who leads the council and would represent the entire council area rather than a leader that is elected by a few 100 voters in a ward and then appointed by a political party/group as the council leader. Democracy need the voting public to have a direct say on who leads our new council and directly elected Mayor to leaded Westmorland and Furness is the only way to deliver this. Supoorting this petition as a registered voter in the Westmorland and Furness Council area will see a referendum held if enough sign the petition were the voting public get to say yes to a mayor. then an election would take place to elect a mayor directy to lead Westmorland and Furness council. For each local authority there is an Executive. Depending on the local arrangements, the Executive is organised in one of three ways: A Leader elected by the Council and a cabinet of Councillors; or A directly elected Mayor and a council manager appointed by the Council. What is a directly elected Mayor? A directly elected Mayor is elected by all the voters in the Council’s area to be the head of the Council’s decision making body. A directly elected Mayor should not be confused with a ceremonial Mayor. Why is a referendum necessary? The introduction of a directly elected Mayor is a significant constitutional change and so a referendum is held to give all voters in the area a chance to choose if they would want this to happen. In order to call a referendum for a directly elected Mayor, a petition must be compiled which is signed by 5% of the number of local government electors that are shown in the current Register of Electors. This 5% figure is called the ‘verification figure’ and is published annually as a formal notice. Please consider signing and sharing this petition calling for a public referendum on a directly elected mayor.

Johnson is refusing to resign. Even though other people resigned having broken the rules. For example, Matt Hancock. If Johnson won't do the honourable thing and resign, it needs to go to a full Parliamentary debate, and make it clear to him - the UK population are not going to stand by, and let him get away with breaking the law, and yet remain in a leadership position

At a time where the British people are going through “heat or eat” issues, ongoing tax hikes, war in Ukraine, attacks on U.K. institutions, secret lobbying, uninvestigated profiteering the public deserves a government and leadership that can restore trust by telling the truth and be accountable to the electorate

The UK need to let the Ukrainians over let them settle and do biometrics in the UK and give a emergency visa not a 10 to 15 day wait!! tests once here and settled. They are currently struggling with the process and need the UK public to stand up for their human rights, against the British government. Ofcourse many have had to flee and not all have passports or utility bills. I vote to let them over and put them with their match. Then the goverment can do biometrics in due time with understanding the extream circumstances they have been though and due to this the suffering. The reason not many are applying is due to the system being too hard and fear the 10 to 15 day wait for a visa when they should be able to move freely to the UK checks can be done at the airports too and ease their process. Stop this cruel treatment and sign be part of something and make briton great again, show compation

Support in numbers attracts attention and reaches the required threshold to be considered by the UK government.

People are dying in Ukraine! The exodus of so many, with little food and accommodation and an uncertain future, is made worse by so few having been inoculated against Covid. As a result the risks are increasing by the day. Refusing to keep the promise of access to the supposed 200,000 refugees the UK has agreed to take, making such difficulties allowing people escaping the war into the UK is only going to make matters worse. Having been caught blatantly misleading The House, it is time for the Prime Minister to step in and take control to ensure the Government, on behalf of the British people, keep our promise.

With huge power comes immense responsibility. So it is urgent that politicians tone down their rhetoric and calibrate their words carefully so we can all get through this crisis. The whole world is watching and needs to have confidence that nuclear armed leaders can act responsibly.

The UK taxation system is unfair. Whilst they make exceptions to multi millionaires and taxation breaks for large companies, the workers whatever grade they are are penalised either through double taxation rule and as a full time UK resident (a persons salary and pension are taxed at the country they work in and then in the country when they overstayed the 90 day rule in) fully understand if someone did this under normal circumstances they were liable to taxation but during a pandemic and based on situation they had no control of where they could not return to their work country due boarder closures, lockdown rules and health risk, how can the UK HMRC or any world taxation not make even the smallest exemption for those workers or emergency exemption for these group of people. So many people have the vision that people who work overseas are high earners and have considerable money hidden. This is not the case when workers are local hires, eg: regular salaries based in the local countries and full local taxations but are classed as foreign citizens, so no benefits and have to purchase numerous medical insurances to enable for them to work in the country. Many people work overseas because their jobs have move there, due to Brexit or companies have moved their HQ's. https://www.ft.com/content/ed280173-abed-46fd-8ac1-f33fef04746d

Solihull Moors are enjoying their best run of results since their formation in 2007. The Moors are a local club attracting the support of Silhillians from across the borough and should remain in Solihull. Solihull Council's confused and chaotic approach to dealing with the zoning of Damson Park has heaped doubt on the viability of the club staying at their current location. We believe the council should hold immediate talks with the board of Solihull Moors to clarify the position of all parties and keep Solihull Moors FC within the boundaries of Solihull.

Millions of people have been adversely affected by the pandemic. The sick & elderly have been isolated & robbed of family contact. The dying passed away alone. So many of us have sacrificed precious once in a lifetime moments because we followed the rules. The outcome of the Downing St parties enquiry must be made public & consequences must follow if rules are found to have been broken.

The Lords are not poor people who rely on their daily fee. It is outrageous to tell people on benefits they only need around 75 per week yet the Lords receive £300 per day. This is patently wrong. I'm sure the public would rather give that 48 million a year to nurses rather than the Lords.
