Unchained UnicornThe Unicorn is a symbol of Scotland. As one of the four free-thinking nation states of the UK, it should not be shackled. This implies that the unicorn is a kept animal or slave against it's will. The passport is intrinsic to identity, and the visual symbolism of a chained creature is not representative of the Nation of Scotland or it's people.62 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Lindsay Brown

A Devolved Parliament For EnglandWales, Scotland and Northern Ireland all have a Devolved Parliament. England does NOT have a Devolved Parliament. This is a democratic defecit. It is extremely unfair on the electorate in England and requires to be remedied for the sake of democratic justice. In Scotland democracy was energised with a huge turnout for the Independence Referendum. Whatever your view, it has to be a good thing to have a substantial increase in the electorate taking an interest in the democratic process and becoming engaged in democracy. Hence this petition to secure a Referendum to establish if there is a demand for a Devolved English Parliament. Of critical importance is to ask the electorate whether they wish a properly Devolved Parliament or England OUTSIDE of Westminster in one of England's great cities. Or if the electorate would settle for a lesser two day a week second best effort using a spare room in Westminster? If Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales have proper dedicated devolved parliaments, then why should England have anything less than a new purpose built Devolved Parliament For England away from Westminster? The view of the petitioners is that Westminster should become a Federal Parliament for the United Kingdom, and that all four countries in the United Kingdom should have separate self governing devolved parliaments. A Devolved Parliament For England should be built in one of the great cities of England. With all due respect to London, this should be in one of the major regions of England. Further details: www.unitedstatesofbritain.org/ If, or when we reach 100,000 signatories to this Petition it will become eligible for debate in the House of Commons:- http://www.parliament.uk/e-Petitions-and-the-Backbench-Business-Committee40 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Russ McLean

Say no to the non-democratic ‘vow’ to ScotlandSay no to the non-democratic ‘vow’ to Scotland. In recent weeks all our leading political party leaders have agreed to give the people of Scotland a much better deal per person than the rest of the British public. Regardless of which way you sit on the yes no divide is it fair that a minority proportion of the British public have a substantially larger amount of the government purse spent on them than the majority of the British public. Already Scots have free university places (at£9k per year), free prescriptions, 15% more spend per capita etc. than the rest of Brits and now without asking parliament, our MP’s or the British public our political leaders have promised the ‘Scots’ even more. Bribery or not why should an English, Welsh or Irish person should receive far less support from our government than a Scottish person? If you believe the recent offer is undemocratic and unfair to the rest of Britain then please sign this petition so that we can lobby the government not to implement this 'give away' they have ‘vowed’ on behalf of the rest of the British public22 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Mike Cherrington

Increase Britain's State pension in line with British prosperity or inflation whichever the higher.Its important because our elderly people should be able to live in dignity in their old age, and not have to endure means testing for State handouts.

Everyone in the UK should be able to vote on Scottish independenceThe issue of the Union between Scotland and England, the future of the United Kingdom, is one that affects every man, woman and child that lives within it's borders, my family, your family - everyone - we will all be affected by the outcome of the Scottish independence referendum, socially, economically, politically, it will affect friends, relationships, jobs, borders, our great public services, our relationships. Over 200 years of Unionship between our countries has shown us that Scotland is a great asset, that combined we are a great force for positive change and that yes, we are better together as allies and united. It can therefore, only be constitutionally right that everyone who lives within this Union, our United Kingdom, be allowed to vote in this referendum and be a party to this greatest of decisions that will affect us all. It is not so much a referendum on independence as one on breaking up a major part of our Union. I want us all to be a part of making that decision.14 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Joseph Hayward
