Stop Congestion Charge expansionDrivers have been helping to prop up the economy for too long. The Dartford crossing should be free now that we have paid for it but the government back stabbed us. We have suffered enough and any expansion of the congestion charge would mean an expansion of the ULEZ. For someone like me who lives in my car this would be devastating especially during this pandemic and for many months after.29 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Gee Browne

Give Local Leaders more powerThe Coronavirus restrictions and disagreements over them have revealed how little Central Government either knows about regions outside of London or cares. The creation of combined Local Authorities with Metro Mayors such as Andy Burnham and Steve Rotherham came with little extra money and few extra powers. Yorkshire has more people than Scotland, Greater Manchester is almost twice the size of Northern Ireland, Merseyside nearing the population of Wales. England is one of the most centralised countries in the world. In recent weeks Central Government has shown its contempt for the regions by not inviting relevant MPs, such as Lisa Nandy, to meetings because they don’t know who they represent, offering lower financial support than under full lockdown, ignoring the fact that Greater Manchester has been under the equivalent of tier 2 ineffectual lockdown for two and a half months. But they still don’t listen to local leaders, whether they be Labour, such as Andy Burnham or Conservative such as Andy Street, Mayor of West Midlands. By signing you will be supporting local leaders in the North and Midlands of England to support their people.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Moira Sykes

Essential Covid 19 servicesMany thousands of individuals have lost jobs or a significant part of their income. Many small business have ceased working and whole sectors (e.g. events) cannot predict when they may resume working. Meanwhile high value government contracts for personal protective equipment, Covid 19 testing services, and track and trace systems have been awarded without tendering processes to major corporations. These corporations should not opportunistically profit by this health and economic crisis. By forgoing profits and bearing a proportion of labour costs these corporations can demonstrate their social responsibility. The money released should be used by the treasury to enhance support to people, small businesses, and the social care sector for the duration of the crisis6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Christine Tuson

End unpaid labour in TV & FILMOnly Make Up and Costume are forced to give an hour and a half for free in television and film every single day. Office workers do not work for free so why is it acceptable for film crews Who are predominately female departments Such as Hair, Make Up and Costume who are pushed into doing this in TV and Film. It’s a sexist old fashioned tradition that is essentially slave labour. Make Up and Hair work over 14 hours a day with an hour and a half given for free. This estimates hundreds of hours that we are Worked for free and a huge loss of earnings at the end of a job. It’s also incredibly unsafe and affects our mental well being and health dramatically. There are no laws to protect us from being over worked or under paid in this country and our unions have not enforced this either.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kevin Wallis

Autism and SPD hidden disability LanyardThe Sunflower Lanyard is being abused by people, and the public are getting the wrong message about what they are for (not mask exemption) so Myself and many others would like the NAS to create a Nationally recognised Lanyard for ASD and SPD with a global campaign to recognise it in all public places, shops, restaurants, transport airports and so on.19 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Rachel Ashby

Covid cash raised for NHS to support NHS workersBecause if these workers aren’t supported both generally and financially they may take longer to recover, will be unable to afford to live near their place of work and we run the risk of many of them leaving the NHS. They’ve been trained and it would be a great shame to lose so many of the people we all depend on.65 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Phyllida Barnes

Vitamin D deficiency in care home residentsVitamin D supplements have been shown to reduce rates and severity of respiratory infections in people who are low in vitamin D. Vitamin D deficiency/insufficiency is associated with increased susceptibility to a variety of bacterial and viral infections including influenza. Associations have also been made between low vitamin D levels and severity of covid19 symptoms. Due to lockdown restrictions many residents will have had little or no sun exposure and will therefore be experiencing low levels of vitamin D putting them at increased risk from respiratory tract infections..90 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Carole Sheppard

Provide furlough, loans and grants to Events IndustryThe Events industry has been hardest hit during the pandemic. Locked down since March they have seen none of the recent relaxing of restrictions that have enable other businesses to get back to work, and now the original furlough scheme is coming to an end, the industry faces approx 600,000 people unemployed and thousands of businesses collapsing as workers will not be eligible for the new winter scheme as they cannot work at all. We want the existing, simple meaningful furlough scheme to continue to support the Events industry, staff and Businesses67 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Adam Backer

Cancel 'I'm A Celebrity' & Prosecute ITV Executives For Risking Covid-19 Infections In North WalesWith the risk of Covid-19 still with us, it is deeply hurtful and insensitive that ITV have decided that Celebrity's lives matter more than the General Public of North Wales and have decided to push ahead, against medical knowledge, and will stage this year's 'I'm A Celebrity' series in North Wales. The local people were not consulted about this and there is every chance that because of this, Covid-19 will be brought into the area which completely goes against the point of the Government's advice (Westminster & Cardiff Bay) and only adds fuel to the fire of Covid-19 and lockdown sceptics. When I recently voiced my concerns to a member of the show's production, (Hayley McFarlane) I was told to '....' myself and that Celebrities were more important than the people of North Wales and their 'stupid precious feelings.' I have the email on file and a copy is with my Solicitor. If ITV think that the people of North Wales do not matter, and they can ride roughshod over them, they then need to be shown they cannot do this and should be prosecuted for their arrogant and criminal treatment of people who are trying their best to shield and not spread this virus as we want to go back to the old normal as soon as possible. It is as if they are trying to deliberately upset people and are working to spread this virus. It is almost tantamount to a terrorist attack.21 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Craig Taylor
