The people of Aberdeen Donside deserve an MSP of unimpeachable character to represent them in the Scottish Parliament.

For the protection of MOD staff who work on the sites and visitors. Most importantly for the protection of this country

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?

At the presant time the UK and North Korea are on fairly civil terms, we do not want to be dragged into a war because Donald Trump wants one.

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.

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.

To not move MPs and Lords out of Westminster would be a gross misuse of taxpayer finance at a time when the budget remains constrained. Not doing so would arbitrarily add 2 billion to the cost of renovations for no compelling reason. Additionally, the government should commit to the full scope of redevelopment of the palace of Westminster. Including the provisions for additional public, corporate and educational spaces listed on pages 73 and through 75 of the "Restoration and Renewal of the Palace of Westminster" report. Such provision would assist both in revenue and tourism as well as helping to educate people in the workings of our government and allow it to feel less removed.

We all know the life and the soul of a city is its arts and culture. Equally as important is the opportunity for us to come together and spend time enjoying ourselves with other people. In a world dominated by smart phones and Netflix we need more reasons to leave our gaff, not less. We need to reverse this trend of destroying everything edgy and interesting about our city to build more beige flats for beige people. Save our city.

Traffic lights are needed to prevent accidents and possible disturbances of the peace. I have been personally involved in one person being injured at this 'Bottleneck ' and I have also been threatened and verbally abused by an irate driver who had to give way to me ! Reserved Parking Places are needed to allow residents a place to 'Park' when returning home etc. as there is just not enough room to 'Park'

The NHS is essential to the U.K.- it is at danger of ceasing if a commitment to increasing its funding does not occur immediately and sanctioned by the forthcoming budget.

I am Howard Bonnett. I act for and help asbestos disease victims throughout England and Wales. My petition is to ask the Lord Chancellor to bring legislation to reinstate the right for compensation for pleural plaques victims in England and Wales. Pleural plaques are a scarring of the lining of the lung. They are caused by asbestos. They are a marker that the body has reacted to asbestos. Victims of asbestos exposure can go on to develop pleural thickening, asbestosis or cancers such as mesothelioma and lung cancer. Compensation was available for pleural plaques from the 1980s through to 2007. Before 2007 those victims could get either full and final or a modest provisional damage settlement to ensure they preserved rights for future monies if they got worsening disease A House of Lords decision decided that pleural plaques were not an injury and should not attract compensation. They chose not to compensate what was described as “the worried well” The Scottish government reinstated rights for pleural plaques victims in 2009. In 2011 Northern Ireland followed suit. Compensation remains unavailable for victims in England and Wales. In the 10 years since the House of Lords decision many more thousands of asbestos pleural plaques victims have been diagnosed. None of them have any legal redress. So why ask for change now? The 2007 change in the law has had a massive affect on those affected. As the years pass the people able to help with claims reduces. In time former employers dissolve and records of employment and insurance disappear. Making claims get harder as time progresses. These many victims of asbestos disease continue to be deprived of justice. For all the more reason the right for pleural plaques victims to secure claims now, even on a modest provisional damage basis, is of great social importance. Depriving people of justice reflects poorly on us all as the Scottish and Northern Irish governments plainly saw. Victims of pleural plaques often know asbestos cancer victims. There is no expiry date for when asbestos can turn cancerous. My father was diagnosed with pleural thickening 20 years ago. He has suffered a pleural effusion this year. This was suspected to be mesothelioma. Fortunately tests have ruled this out – for now. Did the judges really think that this is one of “the worried well?”. Many thousands carry that same anxiety every day. Access to legal redress will not cure them or stop those risks. But it can give peace of mind and knowledge that financial provision can be made for the family. To help the many thousands of victims affected I ask the Lord Chancellor to start a process of legislation to give parity to those in England and Wales that victims in Scotland and Northern Ireland have enjoyed for years.

The EU referendum represented a low point in post war UK democratic politics. Only now are problems coming to the fore that were not considered in the referendum and not debated at the time. Oeople did not know the consequences of them and Brexit impact reports are being unacceptably hidden from the people. This is unacceptable and we need a final decision when we know exactly what Brexit means and that means the full terms of an any deal.
