Consult the People of the UK on the final Brexit dealAn offer was recently made to MPs to vote on whether to accept the deal that is negotiated, or to leave without one. But there is a third option, which is to say no to both, and to stay in Europe. The original public debate on whether to leave Europe was full of misinformation and promises that have no prospect of being kept. As time moves on, it is becoming increasingly evident that the damage to the UK economy is significant, and is forecast to get even worse. In view of this stark reality the terms on which the UK will be obliged to quit Europe should be put to the nation as a whole, and not left to politicians alone.448 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Marc Lavelle

Implement new Stamp Duty exemptions fairlyFirst-time buyers could have saved thousands of pounds each had they have had some prior warning about this policy. There should be support for young people, families, and first time buyers who are trying to responsibly manage their finances and who have been recently stung by Stamp Duty.23 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Charlie LeyoftheLand

End Prescription ChargesAs people's budgets are getting more and more squeezed, more and more people are going without their vital medication. According to the Prescription Charges Coalition, 1 in 3 people with a long-term condition has been unable to pick up their medication, adding more costs to the NHS. As England is the only part of the UK which has prescription charges, it's time to do away with them once and for all!20 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Katie Roche

Free London Transport for StudentsLondon is most expensive city in the UK, with extremely high living cost. At the moment students only get 30% off travel cards and 16-25 cards only allow 30% off of off peak single fares, but must pay the full price for peak fares. Why should students have to pay to go to university when they are struggling to afford everything else. The cost of education is expensive enough, why should we have to pay more. Help students out and let them travel to university for free.27 of 100 SignaturesCreated by S E

Make Coalition Vote Buying in the House of Commons IllegalThis appeal is important, because we have witnessed a political party use the countries money, to reward one particular region above others to secure a voting majority in the house of commons. This practice is immoral and should be considered unconstitutional and illegal in a modern democracy.9 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Richard Jones

Emotional Assistance Pet ActThe petition of residents of United Kingdom, Declares that there is compelling evidence from clinical and laboratory studies that interacting with pets can be beneficial to the physical, social, and emotional well-being of humans and that the human-animal emotional bond does not differ from the one that we sustain in relation to close family members; further that the twenty-first century is the beginning of the revolution in ethics related to scientific evidence regarding consciousness in animals – now confirmed that it is astonishingly close to humans; further that mental health services in the UK are overstretched, have long waiting times and a lack specialist services in some regions; further that the Mental Health Foundation also recognises the value of “pet therapy” in suicide prevention and treating depression leading to it; further that there is no scientific research to support the thesis that tenants who have pets are worse, more difficult or cause more damage to properties than those who do not; and further that almost all tenancy agreements, by default, contain a no pet clause, which is nothing more than a prejudiced practice, as a result, people who have pets are especially victimised in their attempt to simply put a roof over their heads in this difficult housing crisis context. Therefore, the petitioners request that the House of Commons urges the Government to introduce legislation that recognises the importance of the emotional relationship of man and their non-human family members; further to put the interest of the most vulnerable and the public interest above the right of the property owners if the property is a subject of commercial gain; and further that the legislation should allow the emotional support animal access in housing facilities, even when the complex has a no pet policy or breed/weight discriminatory policies.41 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Sophia Davenport

That Boris Johnson should resign over his comments about Nazanin Zachary-RatcliffeOut of sheer laziness Boris Johnson did not establish the facts but as a result has severely compromised the fate of Nazanin Zachary-Ratcliffe. He is not fit for office.20 of 100 SignaturesCreated by John Andrewes

Stop sale of subsidised alcohol at WestminsterThe Committee has the stated aim of upholding the 7 principles of public life, which include selflessness, integrity and accountability - surely providing our public servants with easy access to alcohol whilst at their workplace, subsidised by the taxpayer is a flagrant misuse of our money which flies in the face of these aims. MPs are well paid and are expected to undertake their duties in a professional manner, this should never include the consumption of alcohol whilst at work, which would be considered by most of the working population to be highly unprofessional conduct. This issue becomes even more important in the context of the recent misconduct accusations being levelled at MPs and the possible implication that the consumption of alcohol could have been a factor in some cases.17 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Debbie Brotherton

The age of an adult?If we allow the government and large companies to get away with this, what else will be changed to suit them. This is allowing them to get away with parents having to fork out billions in extra tax, with a lot of families in the UK currently in poverty, every little helps to ease the burden.9 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Natasha Lukins

Make Cardiff plastic straw free36.4 billion plastic straws are discarded in the EU annually damaging wildlife, water quality and entering our food chain. The Welsh government led the way on the plastic bag carrier charge, and we want them to do the same with single use plastic straws. Such a small change will make a huge impact on our environment and make Cardiff a greener, cleaner and more sustainable place to live.80 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Nia Jones
