Poole Council's closure of town centre and shopping area toilets is hurting those who need more accessible loos - whether that be for those with disabilities, parents with small children and our OAPs. The alternative offered of using the toilets provided in shops does not take into account our community's needs as the shops taking part in the scheme may not be open when you need it or not be what people need. For example, I have spoken to disabled people that would not want to go into a cafe to use their wc to change themselves with their helper. One other lady said: "My husband had prostate cancer. We wouldn't have been able to go out if there were no public toilets for him to use. There are many in the same situation who rely on them." In Bournemouth, they have new disabled toilets with hoist and a changing table. Let's get Poole Council to reinstate the public toilets - particularly for OAPs, parents with small children and disabled people.

Having been so careless about the future last Thursday we owe it to ourselves, and those who follow, to ensure that there is a representative democracy that works throughout Britain. Having a sensible second chamber would remove the hypocrisy of criticising the EU institutions. It would also kill the shame of having the largest wholly unelected second chamber in Europe. Agreeing a constitution would force us to reflect on the importance and fragility of democracy and how we make sure that it reflects the interests of all.

Following the Brexit vote we need a Labour Government with a strong leader to ensure that all those who live in and work in the UK whatever their origin get the lives and rights that they deserve. _________________________________________________________________________ This petition has been started by a member of public and not 38 Degrees. 38 Degrees is a non-party political organisation, with no links to any political parties.

Because she seems to be the only politician in the UK that makes sense.

In adding our support to Nicola Sturgeon in her bid to veto Brexit, we can avoid the prospect of UK Exiting the EU. We do not want to become disconnected from Europe, both economically and culturally. EU citizens living in the UK and Europe have expressed their shock at the referendum result and they fear it signals a xenophobic turning point in British politics. Please sign this petition to challenge this shameful turn in British politics. Support the SNP to veto Brexit.

Having lived through the recent referendum on Scottish Independence and last weeks referendum on membership within the European Union I feel our current democratic system is seriously flawed. I would like to see a move towards making it compulsory for everyone eligible to vote in a referendum or an election having to exercise their democratic duty. In order to ensure that each individual has had an opportunity to exercise their right I would like to see the inclusion of a "none of the above" box in each ballot paper, thus enabling those who do not wish to opt for the options availabe to still vote. I am aware that this system works successfully in other countries around the world. I think given recent events and the current political climate it is time to make a change to how we elect representatives, time to make changes to our political position in the world. I believe that making voting compulsory will ensure a fairer, more representative outcome.

Scotland's voice isn't being heard.

This is VITALLY important as this is our democracy at stake. If the government overturns or does not act on the majority vote to leave the EU then we truly do not have a voice in this country any more. We might as well live under a dictatorship. Where will it end if the government decide to not leave the EU against the wishes of majority of the British people - will they then hold a second election in the general election if they do not get the vote they want??! Please support this petition, there is everything at stake here. If we allow the government to renege on their promises now then this gives them open licence to do it again and again in the future and democracy will be truly dead and buried.

Following the EU Referendum, there is much uncertainty for the Welsh people. EU funding was proven by facts and figures to be needed in many demographics of Wales. It covered several areas: Business, Education, Environmental, Tourism, Community, almost every area of our society. This funding made up for decades of inadequate UK funding for our Country by the UK Central Government. "Brexit" needs to be ratified by the UK's three devolved Governing Bodies, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland. Wales has the opportunity to re-write, and re-balance the short change we have been receiving. Austerity measures have hit Wales hard. Year on Year our Councils received less and less. With a promised huge amount of funding being returned to the UK's control, we demand the Local Government funding we were receiving pre-austerity, and "every penny" we were receiving from the EU. We want OUR FAIR SHARE. If we don't get a legally binding agreement to these funding demands from the UK Central Government, then we REFUSE to ratify Brexit.

At a time of democratically motivated fundamental change the country requires the help and support of the very best individuals to develop and implement a strategy irrespective of party or previous position on the Brexit question.

Following the surprise 'Leave' vote in the EU referendum, Britain is in a state of turmoil. Prime Minister David Cameron has resigned, and there is a good chance of there being a general election soon. The 'leave' vote for EU referendum had a tiny majority, and a good half of the country's population are unhappy with the way things are proceeding. The Liberal Democrats and Scottish National Party have declared that they will oppose any attempt to have Britain leave the EU. Should they prove victorious in a general election, then this dangerous slide towards Brexit may come to an end. On the end hand, if the British public re-elect the Pro-Brexit Tories, then their desire will also be known. This petition calls on the EU to be patient and not force Britain into making any hasty moves until more clarity about the country's future has been obtained.

The EU referendum was advisory and the people gave you their advice. We told you that on this matter we were split down the middle: 48%-52% (35%-37%-28% if you include non-voters). That proper response to a balanced vote is not to comply entirely with the side that is ahead by a few percentage points. The proper response is to compromise. This is not a new idea. in 2010 we had an indecisive general election result and a compromise was reached. Rather than assuming that the referendum result means a country irreconcilably divided into two camps, a more sensible interpretation would be that changes to our relationship with the EU could be sufficient to produce a substantial consensus across the nation as a whole. Politicians should not try to wash their hands of this difficult process, under the pretence of carrying out the public's will.
