Hold Trump To Account On Charlottesville CommentsPresident Trump made comments saying there are 'good people' on the side of the white supremacists in Charlottesville, effectively condoning racism, prejudice, violence, hatred and the neo-Nazis. This is immoral, unjust, dangerous, and wrong, and echoes sentiments last expressed by a major world leader in the 1930's - and they must be condemned. He must take responsibility for his comments, and we must petition our world leaders to hold him to account.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by James Prescott

Believe in a brighter futurePlease take your time and read this all my own research here all to do with the British legal system how it clearly fails ex prisoners like myself 😯. In Britain there are 82,056 prisoners and a total off 59% off them will re offend in the first 12 months😢. There is a total off 150 active prisons in Britain today😮. The government are complaining about the over crowding off them now 9% off these prisoners are in for petty crime shop lifting breach of the peace ect😔 yet there are supposed to be other ways to deal with this community pay back order and so on but these people are receiving custodial sentences what then leads them to be institutionalised that leads to them again re offending🙇. There are no support networks in place to help people in Britain with this that's where re offending comes in to play. You can get help with offending behaviour from sacro if your under the age off 18 only (5%) but if your over the age off reabilitaition the governments own words you don't get the proper support😒. Now what am getting at is that the only way off bringing down the population in prison is to put positive appropriate sensible measures in place and that's having a support network in place 24 hours a day 7 days a week instead off using all the government funds on idiotic projects🙊 a tried my best to get this to make sense for you guys to see what am getting at here so a hope you get my point🙏10 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Stephen Mcgettigan

Improve the conditions for EU-bound migrants in Libyan 'detention' centresEach night, hundreds of migrants board smuggler owned rubber dinghies to take the perilous journey from Libya to Europe. These migrants either: a) Drown in the Mediterranean sea, as the dinghies are not built to support the long, dangerous journey, packed to the brim with migrants. b) Arrive in Italy where they not currently permitted to be. c) Are caught by Libyan coast guards who transport them back to Libya to be put in 'detention' centres. These detention centres are awful places, in which many human rights are broken. Migrants eat, sleep and live on crowded floors where they do not have enough space to move around. UK prisons have far better living conditions than those in Libyan 'Detention Centres', yet these migrants are innocent people. One lady interviewed by Ross Kemp, in his Extreme World series said that she received no hospital care when giving birth and was instead left to give birth in the toilet. The migrants in these centres are often fleeing war torn countries and are now living in conditions worse than they have left. They have no contact with the outside world, so they are left to live out their days in these awful places. Article 5 of the Human Rights Act, Right to liberty and security, is clearly being broken. From the following quote: "Given its role in the conflict and subsequent destabilisation in Libya, the UK has a particular responsibility in relation to migrants and refugees, an issue which has been exacerbated by the collapse of the Libyan state. " (Paragraph 105 of https://publications.parliament.uk/…/cms…/cmfaff/119/119.pdf) It is clear that the UK government agrees with its own responsibility to help these migrants. But what an earth is being done about it? Ideally, I think one the solutions should be: For all countries that are unwilling to accept these migrants to contribute to the creation of 'peace centres'. 'Peace centres' would strive to provide a bed for each migrant within Libya whilst being sustainable in ensuring that migrants can get back to their home countries. Sustainability would be achieved by having an on site lawyers office who will fight to get these people back to their home countries and by allowing residents to work within the centre, by doing chores to support the upkeep of the centre, all of which would be paid work. There will also be education to prevent these people from getting on boats again as it is a risk to their money, safety and well being. By signing this petition, we can encourage the UK government and other EU countries to do more to improve conditions within Libyan migrant detention centres.21 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jodie Hemsill

Keep our communities moving!I stand with all those charities and community groups that provide transport for a social purpose and community benefit. They enable people to live, learn and work independently, to stay fit and active, to access vital public services and participate in their community. This type of transport provision is Britain at its best with communities doing things for themselves and it must be cherished, protected and nurtured. I want the UK Government to work with its counterparts in the devolved nations to commit themselves to making sure that nobody suffers as a result of its proposed changes operator and driver licensing. I want them to commit to fully understanding the impact of their proposed changes so they can decide whether all this upheaval is worth it and choose another path or decide how they can support those communities most affected, especially our most vulnerable and isolated citizens.5,298 of 6,000 SignaturesCreated by Charlotte Hughes

Shifnal Town Centre - RevampShifnal has seen unsustainable and disproportionate housing development over the past few years, putting a huge strain on a range of public services.. Transport infrastructure , Health care services , Education access and many other services are woefully under funded in Shifnal .. The local town council now plans to spend the majority of the CIL funding on a shared spaces enhancement plan, putting the public at risk.. These schemes have failed and seen numerous fatalities..This vital funding is desperately needed elsewhere.. Approximately 2.28% of Shifnal residents ( 171 people ) out of a population nearly at 7500 people voted for this.. Change is needed , but committing so much to serve so few is unacceptable.. This scheme was not approved by your elected officials , yet still continues ? Please sign this petition and ensure our local councils come up with intelligent, viable alternatives that will benefit ALL of our community...196 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Lee Hubbard

I want all MP'S to work for a week in their local A&E department.I think the only way to bring home the implications of financial restraints and the decisions MP's make on the NHS is to see how it works in real time. It would offer an invaluable insight to the people who seem to make decisions based purely on reading a spread sheet. How can it be right for people who have no experience of working in the NHS or have no medical training be allowed to make decisions on how this wonderful institution is run. I'm sure they have an army of expert advisors, but following a recent visit to my local A&E I'm sorry to say the NHS is broken. Until these people see how it works from a personal point of view they have no chance of fixing it. If you are happy to see the NHS fall into a deep dark hole never to be seen again. Just sit back and watch. Should you wish to give the Government a kick up the backside and take some action, please sign this petition. It must be better than doing nothing! Thank you for taking the time. Chris Hirst.26 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Christopher Hirst

Southport Says - Promote Safe Alternatives to FrackingEvidence from other countries and from the only Fracking to be carried out todate in the UK at Preece Hall in Lancashire demonstrates the industry has a proven record of environmental failures. At Preece Hall, which was being Fracked by Cuadrilla in 2011, as many as 46 earth tremors and 2 official earthquakes were experienced resulting in the site being closed down. Evidence has also been considered by the governments own Environmental Audit Committee and as part of their 2015 report they concluded: "Despite the assurances from some that environmental risks can be safely accommodated by existing regulatory systems, an extensive range of uncertainties remains over particular hazards—to groundwater quality and water supplies, from waste and air emissions, to our health and to biodiversity, to the geological integrity of the areas involved, and from noise and disruption. Uncertainty about their significance is in part a reflection of the fact that fracking operations have yet to move beyond the exploratory stage in the UK. It is imperative that the environment is protected from potentially irreversible damage. • Fracking must be prohibited outright in protected and nationally important areas. • Full containment of methane must be mandated. • Fracking should be prohibited in all water source protection zones.148 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Paul Bradshaw

Karen | A Mother's PlightKaren Perry | Wife | Mother | Full-time carer. Karen has been married to Marcus for 33 years, their marriage has seen two wonderful sons introduced to our world. Karen is a valued member of a Care Group which cares for Adults with severe learning difficulties such as Autism and Downs Syndrome, near Middlesbrough, where she works tirelessly to help others, always prioritising other peoples needs over her own. Karen is from Cape Town, South Africa. Her Grandfather moved there from Norfolk after his father had served in the Anglo Boer war as a blacksmith. It is where she met Marcus and love blossomed, and soon marriage bells rang. Karen and Marcus decided to move to the United Kingdom in 2006, so that Marcus could be nearer his Welsh family and their sons would have better education and career opportunities. Marcus is a qualified electrical engineer who was sadly diagnosed with a brain tumour, due to the effects of his illness Marcus has been unable to work for the past 7 years but retrained as a lecturer and started to work again briefly. He relapsed about a year ago and has had to rely on Karen for support and care since. It would have been easy for Karen to focus her full attention on her husband, his illness warranted it. However, Karen knew that her service users at the Care Center needed her too. It was never in doubt, Karen decided to split her time between caring for her husband and continuing her support for her service users. Sadly Karen now needs the support of others, the Home Office has decided that she is not entitled to or merits British Citizenship. The Home Office stated in their refusal letter that Karen had not proved proficiency in English even though she had passed the "Life in the UK Test" and was told that she wouldn't have to prove proficiency again. This was confirmed on the uk.gov website. After Karen sought assistance from her local MP, Alex Cunningham, the website was changed to reflect new conditions. Without citizenship, Karen is left in a state of limbo. This cannot be right, so I ask you to please show your love and support for Karen by signing our petition. Kind regards to all and thank you172 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Andrew Carmody

Devolve policing from Westminster to the Welsh assemblyIt seems ludicrous that Westminster is considering devolving policing to Greater Manchester, a region of England, yet completely brush the issue to the side when it comes to Wales. Scotland too has their own criminal justice system, so how does it make any logical sense not to devolve this area of government to Wales?82 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ifan Jones
