  • Emotional Assistance Pet Act
    The 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.

  • That Boris Johnson should resign over his comments about Nazanin Zachary-Ratcliffe
    Out 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.

  • Stop sale of subsidised alcohol at Westminster
    The 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.

  • 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.

  • Make Cardiff plastic straw free
    36.4 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.

  • Stop our MPs drinking alcohol in the Houses of Parliament
    There are several bars within the Houses of Parliment, should our MPs be debating and making decisions on our behalf if they have had an alcoholic drink? After all they are at work, studies show that even small amounts of alcohol can influence us negatively, we wouldn’t want our GP, pilot, or any other professional person serving us after being to a bar, so how is it any different for MPs?

  • Calling for a new UK bank holiday to celebrate under 25s
    At The Mix, we know that under 25s are extremely talented, and care passionately about the world around them. We are privileged, through our work, to witness first-hand the strength and resilience of young people every day. It's important that as a society we embrace young people from all backgrounds, and nurture their potential as ultimately, they are the future of our country. Often the media narrative around young people can be very negative, focusing on crime, unemployment, or unattainable housing. We hope that a dedicated bank holiday will help to change the narrative around Generation Z into a positive one - STRONG and RESILIENT. In 2018, International Youth Day will come of age and celebrate its 18th anniversary. At The Mix we believe this anniversary is the perfect time to show our appreciation to the youngest members of our society. This petition is part of The Mix's #Stronger campaign, which aims to give under 25s the platform to tell their story and not be defined by mainstream media.

  • Plastic reduction in supermarkets
    The oceans are already choked with plastic and by 2050 , there will be more plastic in the ocean than fish. This could mean starvation to many people and countries that depend on the ocean to survive. This is the sort of environment that breeds conflict and war, thus causing more pollution. I have 5 grandchildren who will be part of this polluted world along with billions of others. We have no need to worry about world war three, as pollution will eradicate the population before , if we don't take action now. If we target supermarkets like Asda, then we can pressurise them into making a difference.
