End the inequality of Furlough. Introduce an Unconditional Basic Income for EveryoneWhen the Unconditional Basic Income is in place 1. Everyone could afford to self isolate if asked to. 2. Anyone could start up a new business enterprise to create a "new normal" post Covid economy 3. End the inequality of furlough and SEISS. Where some get lots and some get nothing 4. Key workers are properly valued for the essential work that they are doing because they keep their Unconditional Basic Income on top of their pay packet. 5. End poverty.62 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Eric Mutch

Subway / Greggs For New MillsThe nearest subways are in Hazel Grove (8 Miles) and Glossop (8 Miles), and the one in Buxton recently closed. There are very few shops similar to Subway in New Mills. The nearest greggs are in Buxton (12 Miles), Marple (4 Miles) or Glossop (8 Miles). It would be understandable that Greggs might not want a store in the main town centre, due to local bakeries, but one on the A6 would be highly successful19 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Neil Pateick - Jenkins

Windsor theatre NedlandsIt has been stated that the owners are free to demolish this 1937 building, as it does not meet the criteria to be listed on the State Register of Heritage Places - However the people of Perth feel this is a building of history, beautiful architecture and are fed up of Perth beautiful history being demolished. This does not just effect the people of Nedlands but all of Perth's people and its history.the Art Deco and Modernist Society has been working very hard for many years to save our heritage - the Windsor Theatre is a major example of the Art Deco style of theatre we are blessed with and one of very few examples of this wonderful era we should be preserving not condemning to developers.6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Nichola Smith

Help financially for mobile beauty therapistsMobile thereapists never received a penny in help the last lockdown. Now another is beginning , so another 4 weeks of worry for them and no MONEY to live on. My Neice experienced this which made her ill through worry. Why has the Government not helped these people , it is as if they do not exist.. Many go and see the elderly in their homes , give massages give facials and do nails which a lot of elderly people cannot manage themselves. Hairdressers are the same .Will the Government HELP financially this time ????6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Pamela Drion

Test all nhs staff regularly for covidThis is because we are frontline and have more exposure to the public than others do. We have worked through the first lockdown without a pay rise or much support and now we are expected to do the same again. None of us are able to access a covid test unless we display symptoms and it is not good enough anymore. We deserve to be prioritised over others, because of our work and also due to the fact that we are keeping the economy afloat. It is most disheartening when rich and famous people can access covid tests easily, however those of us on the frontline cannot. We should have protection and it would help to stop it spreading. It or our right to have a covid swab at least monthly. It is also to protect our families and those people in our care.8 of 100 SignaturesCreated by angelina Norton

Fair support for the self employedWith another national lockdown about to begin, once again the self employed are being unfairly treated. Through the SEISS scheme, the self employed have already missed out on 2 months worth of support. Payment 1 was for ‘3 months to May’ so March, April, May. Therefore the second payment is for June, July, August. But now, the third payment is for November, December, January and the fourth is for February, March and April. What happened to September and October?? Please account for the missing months. Now we are heading into a second lockdown where 80% furlough is extended but the self employed are expected to survive a second lockdown on 40% support (with no support at all for the last 2 months). Please review this and make it fair.20 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Lisa Cryer

A Statue for Sir Sean ConnerySean Connery rose from a humble background in Edinburgh's Fountainbridge to become one of the most iconic and much-loved actors of all time. He was a great ambassador for the city and for Scotland as a whole, and a man who proved that Scots can achieve great things.6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Leslie Thomson

Means test MP expenses in line with benefits and other govt supportThe average UK salary is £30k. The basic MP salary is £81k (putting them in the top 5%). On top of this MPs can take other well-paid jobs for example in journalism or public speaking and claim for expenses, sometimes in the region of £50k. The average person is unable to claim expenses, their only option is to seek extra help in the form of benefits where their incomes and assets are thoroughly assessed and help is denied if they are lucky enough to have over £16k in savings, and minimized if they have over £6k in savings. This disparity needs assessing. MPs complacency and reliance on expenses breeds contempt for the average person looking for a little extra support but it's the MPs who are truly receiving the "hand-out" that they claim to despise. With such a large divide between wealth, means and class, how can MPs truly relate to their constituents? Can an MP with savings worth £2M and claiming £40K expenses really understand what it's like to be living on £28K and struggling to sustain a family because you're oh-so-slowly saving up (£17k in 6 years!) to buy a house so the kids don't have to share a room?127 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Claire Wilkie
