Pay at pump fuel stationsIt gives a message on the pump to pay at kiosk yet are unmanned at night. Please allow this option to pay for fuel as some people do not have £99 in their account every day of the week. To see this problem look at forecourt CCTV and see how many customers are driving to work on empty without getting the required fuel, hospital workers, night shift workers or college students trying to go to their families at the weekend or even your son or daughter who may not have a big budget. These groups of people could end up on the motorway without fuel. This system is about prevention of fraud yet there is CCTV and numberplate recognition. When you put your card & pin number full bank account details you are giving authority for the debit of the money from your account. If you had no intention to pay this would be surely classed as fraud with CCTV. The £99 money is held back so you cannot buy more fuel from anywhere else. A prime example would be if you put £10 of fuel in over the weekend period and you only had £100 in your account you could not put another £20 in your tank and would then become stranded and vulnerable.15 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Steven Patch

RailPlan20/20 changes - London Bridge to LittlehamptonOn May 20th 2018 Thameslink and Southern train timetable changes. Passenger journeys in London and the south east have more than doubled in the last two decades. With such a growth Thameslink decided to reduce the number of trains on this route from 3 to 2. Both passing from Bedford with not enough capacity for the amount of passengers commuting on this route. In addition, the last train is at 5.55 not suitable for most City workers hence creating work issues work such huge working population. We need more trains!59 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Your Voice

Stop Advertising with Guns and WeaponsThese images are plastered all over the tube, buses, bus shelters, newspapers, magazines etc. Subliminally de-sensitising young minds that this is ok and the norm. Young minds and easily manipulated minds that see the hero carries a gun or knife. There has been 11 fatal shootings already this year in London, and endless knife attacks resulting in fatalities not to mention acid attacks. Though this may not be considered an important change we need to change the influence culture has. We can't change the films and games themselves but we can change the way they are sold to us, glorifying killing. And these small changes will contribute to the change in society. I have started an instagram page documenting what I see called. https://www.instagram.com/gunsonthetube9 of 100 SignaturesCreated by G unson

Proposed Parking Restrictions on Union Street, Stow.We wish to object to the proposed parking restrictions on the following grounds: 1 - Primarily Safety - the currently parked cars provide a very obvious traffic calming effect while the imposition of the restrictions would increase traffic speed and endanger local residents. 2 - The removal of the parking spaces would exacerbate the problem of the loss of all the parking we formerly enjoyed in the old Ashton House so that people particularly at the western end of Union Street frequently have to walk from the very opposite end of Union Street if they can find parking on the street at all. 3 - When the plans for the new estate were in planning and subject to consultation, traffic access to the estate was approved on the basis of the current layout. If it was acceptable then, why is it not acceptable now? 4 - As the meeting in February showed, the residents of Union Street are entirely against this proposed plan so for whose benefit is it?50 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Lee Smith

N.H.S HOSPITAL CAR PARKING CHARGESThis issue was brought up at my local Patient Practice Group of which I am Chairman. There were quite a number of instances reported by the committee who support this action unanimously. The following are two of my own experiences. 1. In December, 2017 I took my sister-in-law to Sunderland Hospital. She was unable to walk and there was no ambulance available. I parked at the accident & emergency and with my wife I got her out of the car and into a wheelchair. My wife pushed her into the hospital whilst I reversed my cat into a disabled parking bay. several days later I received a £70 fine Parking notice 2. In February 2018 i took my wife for a scan to North tees Hospital. After I dropped her off I parked my car and went to the parking meter. Unlike Sunderland their was a fee chargeable for disabled drivers. The first 20 minutes parking was free but after that there was a charge which if not paid was subject to a £90 fine. It is impossible to be able to assess that my wife would be able to receive her treatment within 20 minutes. I decided to pay for the parking. The cost was £3 for the first hour as well as for the next 11 hours. As it happened my wife did not have to wait and she had her scan and returned to the car. We were parked for exactly 26 minutes. I had paid the 12 hour fee for 6 minutes. I also was inconvenienced as I had no change and the meter did not take notes or give change. I had to go back into the hospital for change for the parking meter.19 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Alan Liversidge

Make Fox Hill Road saferOur darling cat Lola was ran over on Friday 4th May. She is currently in the pet hospital and has had to have her jaw rewired, lost a tooth and has to be fed through a tube in her nose. Lola will make a full recovery but imagine if this was one of my two children. Lola was lucky but if the car that hit her had hit one of my children then they would be fighting for their lives in hospital. Yes this road is a busy road and one that people pass through a lot. There are just not enough speed restrictions in place. There is ONE speed bump as you get to the brow of the hill and then its free reign and people gather so much speed especially coming from Grenoside. It is 30 MPH. People do up to 50 MPH. My children play on this road and so do a lot of children. My car insurance is high because of my post code. My car wing mirror has been smashed numerous times and over the weekend a car has ploughed into parked cars. I want Sheffield City Council to consider putting speed bumps on this road and to raise awareness to drivers that this is a place where we live and not a rally road and just remember the key message "it's 30 Miles Per Hour for a reason".68 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Sarah Goddard

UK government, rescue Rohingya refugees at risk of death in forthcoming cyclone seasonAbout the refugee camp at Cox's Bazar: Cox’s Bazar is one of the most frequently flooded regions of one of the most flood-prone countries on Earth. Bangladesh’s southern tip is fewer than three metres above sea level, with a triangular coast that funnels the ocean together. It makes high tides higher, and puts even major cities such as Chittagong within the water’s grasp. As well as heightening the risk of floods, Bangladesh’s geography also makes for extraordinarily deadly storms. A cyclone in 1970 killed 300,000 people. Another in the same area in 1991 left an estimated 10 million people homeless. Cyclone Sidr, a decade ago, killed as many as 10,000 people. Should cyclones bear down on the region again, as they have in the past two years, they could collide with nearly 700,000 new residents sleeping in tents of bamboo and tarpaulin. Aid agencies fear a second catastrophe is about to strike the Rohingya. “Lives will be lost,” says Daphnée Cook, Save the Children’s communications manager. “It’s just a question of how many.” As many as 200,000 refugees are estimated to be at direct risk from landslides or floods and require urgent evacuation, separate assessments by the Bangladesh government and aid groups have concluded. Most have nowhere to go. Cox’s Bazar is a safe haven from Burmese government persecution, but it is also an enormous detention centre. At least 27 military checkpoints around the camps restrict the refugees from leaving. Humanitarian agencies have moved at least 15,000 families living in the path of floods or landslides so far, but concede that there is not enough suitable land to relocate all those at risk. Assisting the Rohingya to build strong homes is also out of the question. Bangladeshi public sentiment is starting to tire of the burden of more than a million displaced people, and it is an election year. Bricks roads and cement drains have been allowed, but not concrete homes. Like the presence of schools, they might suggest the refugees are in Cox’s Bazar to stay. from https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/apr/27/rohingya-refugees-cyclone-monsoon-season-bangladesh-myanmar21 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Karren Ablaze!

20 mph for residential roads in Epsom & EwellWe have a nursery in our local church at the end of our road. Our road is used as a cut through to get to Chessington Road, hence we get lots of speeding cars down our road. Our kitten was hit by one of these cars last week and we are devastated as he sadly died. We need to do something, although we cannot bring him back. Which is why I am starting this petition.6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jen Mitchell

Public Transport AccessIn London most single and double decker buses are able to accomodate disabled passengers by lowering the step or deploying a ramp for wheelchairs and mobility scooters. It has been noticed that a large number of cities and towns outside of London do not seem to have a similar service for the disabled passengers in their communities. For example: in the Greater Manchester area, where some buses do have a step that can be lowered for disabled passengers, they either do not work or only do so intermittantly, therefore causing disabled passengers with crutches a lot of distress when entering the bus and where wheelchairs and mobility scooters are concerned, where the step cannot be lowered, those disabled persons are unable to travel. The picture above shows one of the latest buses to be put into service in Germany. If you examine it closely you can see that the set of doors in the middle has a sign for wheelchair and buggy access. This includes a deployable ramp. This design should be a standard requirement on public transport that use roads.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Anthony Reed
