Call for Early General ElectionWith the news of our elected departure from the European Union and the resignation intent of current PM David Cameron, I believe that an early general election is vital. There are many ways to implement this decision, and - having demanded more political control - the people deserve the right to choose the way forward, and who leads it. The quicker we call this, the quicker it can be decided and we can begin the serious job of negotiating a fair exit from the EU and restoring faith in a seemingly divided country. Under the Fixed-Term Parliaments Act an early general election can be called if a motion (as worded in section 2(2) of the Act) that there shall be an early parliamentary general election is passed by the House of Commons with at least two thirds in favour of the motion.3,207 of 4,000 SignaturesCreated by karen van hoey smith

Keep the promise of £350 million for our NHSNigel Farage and Leave campaigners promised to invest in our NHS - but this morning it looks like they're trying to wriggle out of it. They shouldn't be allowed to make promises they can't keep. Our NHS has been cash strapped for years. NHS staff are working so hard and it's crumbling around them. Now we have an opportunity to make the 'Leave' campaigners promise to put the £350 million saved from the EU into the NHS. Today, half the country is rejoicing, half the country is despairing. But the NHS unites us all. We need to hold them to their promise of £350 million a week for our NHS.331,878 of 400,000 SignaturesCreated by Michele Martin

The UK demands a General Election in 2016At such a pivotal moment in history the UK electorate needs to give its sovereign authority to a new government to chart our future course during Brexit negotiations. David Cameron has announced his intention to step down as Prime Minister by the Conservative Party conference in October. Whatever the outcome in this internal process of selecting a new leader, this person, and their colleagues, will be significantly different from the Conservative Party that was elected last year.62 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Alan Booth

Call for a general election following the resignation of David Cameron.The Conservatives are no longer the party which was elected by a very narrow margin in 2015. Boris Johnson and Michael Gove do not have a mandate to lead the country simply by virtue of being on the winning side. We need a democratically elected government for a new and challenging phase of our country's history.531 of 600 SignaturesCreated by Lucy Townsend

Expand the powers of the Electoral Commission against misinformationAfter a closely fought contest, and the final result which is beyond contention, we must confront the prospect that a portion of the referendum campaigning was based on misinformation, and sometimes outright lying. This petition seeks to draw attention to this, given that the tactics used in this referendum on both sides, such as scaremongering, will more than likely be utilised again, and are damaging to the democratic character of this country. We ask that powers against these be expanded from its current form: “While we have regulatory duties relating to campaign spending, including in relation to political advertising/election material, we have very few powers to deal with the content of material published by candidates and parties, or their general conduct. In most cases we will not be able to deal with such complaints, which should instead be made directly to the party or candidate responsible for the material.” http://www.electoralcommission.org.uk/complaints9,626 of 10,000 SignaturesCreated by Chris B

London to secede from United KingdomLondon is one of the world's great cties, full of people from all over the planet, and each one of them enriches the city's great atmosphere. London is a cultural hub, a business hub, a a place with a great history and - as part of a wider global community - a dazzling future. Please let's not allow this phenomenonal city to lose the very things that make it what it is - its open-mindedness, its inclusivity and its forward facing outlook.42 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Scott Hadley

EFDC HIGHWAYSThe presently neglected state of roads and footpaths is a danger to all classes of road users. Pedestrians run the constant risk of tripping on eroded or damaged paths. Holes and other defects in roads are a very serious threat to cyclists and motorcyclists, and motorists are sustaining regular damage to wheels, tyres, and suspension. In the present climate of budget constraints it is right and proper for those responsible for causing damage to pay the costs of repairs, otherwise those costs will be added to the already stretched cost of maintenance.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Harold Blissett

Keep the Pickhurst partnership and community goingThe schools are stronger together and share the same aspirations. The decision for the Infants to join a different Multi Academy Trust has no merit or benefit for the children. Two schools being run by separate Trusts will have an impact on the children and families.215 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Tara Hilson

Save the 20 Bus RouteEssex County Council have decided to withdraw the subsidy for the 20 and 167 bus routes which they currently pay to Transport for London. This is to take effect from April 2016. It is boggling as to how they can propose cuts to the service, let alone the possibility that it could disappear altogether. More info here: http://www.buckhursthillresidents.co.uk/index.php/14-news/104-threat-to-20-167-bus-routes Please also check out https://you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/save-the-167-bus-route for a campaign (by H Chow) hoping to save the 167 route from Debden to Ilford.813 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by Sam MP

Force Britten-Norman Manufacturing to pay Reparations to Jo Cox's FamilyAs many of us now know, Britten-Norman flew a self-funded 'Vote Leave' plane over Trafalgar Square at Jo Cox's memorial- silencing her husband temporarily during his tribute to his late wife. This disgraceful act of political points scoring is a prime example of the lack of class and compassion the Brexit campaign holds largely. While the referendum will soon be over with, I believe Britten-Norman should pay reparations to Jo Cox's family due to their gross misconduct. Despite their claims that this was a mistake and the plane was flying several hours later than planned, if it was that much of an error the pilot wouldn't have flown in such proximity to Trafalgar Square, drowning out Jo Cox's husband while he spoke. The aircraft manufacturer should be ashamed of themselves, and should be held accountable for their actions.7 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Sam Anderson
