Rule out privatisation of profitable servicesLast year, the NHS Professionals department (the NHS internal recruitment agency) actually made a profit of 8 million pounds. No sooner is this information available than internal sources confirm a privatisation deal is in the works. (See link at the end) This is a scandalous betrayal of the Health Service, on a par with the deliberate alienation of nurses and junior doctors. (It's worth mentioning that the only reason a department of the NHS can generate a profit is because of the "internal market" system that exists in NHS England - essentially, it's Mum paying Dad to cut the grass, then Dad paying Mum to make dinner: it's a wasteful circle of money that exists only as a precursor to back-door privatisation) Our public money should remain in public services, not go to the cosy friends and relatives of government ministers through privatisation deals. It's our money. It's our service. It's our say. And we say enough is enough. https://www.rt.com/uk/333270-nhs-professionals-privatized-deloitte/14 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Douglas Carr

Books in the bus stops in London: BookstopsBooks that you have read, books that seem too old but tell our history, books that you think the next generations should read, why should we keep them isolated from the world? Why not share them with everyone?! In this technological era where everything is moving so fast, where social networks command our daily life, a book can save us and make us comeback to our roots and untangle who we are. This is why this campaign is so important; to have the liberty to read a book that can remind us that there are stories that cannot be forgotten because they represent a part of ourselves.6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Miguel Marre

Pets 4 Well BeingI suffer from a long lists of medical conditions of which I suffer daily chronic pain. This limits my ability to get out at times. Having a dog for support and emotional comfort has at times been the 1 thing that has kept me going. It has been proven that a pet can be of enormous benefit to someone's well being. Also it can make that person go out as they have to consider their pets well being as well.32 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Tracy Tilney

STOP THE SELL-OFF OF OLD TIDEMILL COMMUNITY SPACEFamily Mosaic and Sherry Green Homes want to demolish social housing, replace the creative hub of Old Tidemill School and build over the entire Wildlife Garden, a unique and mature haven, for people and wildlife alike in Deptford. Replacing it with 210 dwellings, 176 of which are for private rental with a small communal grass lawn and sanitized play spaces. This development will not benefit the local community and will remove a vital green space in an area of local deficiency. URGENT. PLEASE OBJECT TO THE COUNCIL PLANNING DEPARTMENT ABOUT THE CURRENT PROPOSALS It’s really straightforward.

EU Referendum Votes for 16 and 17 Year OldsIt's important as the decision and outcome that is created will have a greater effect on younger people. Scotland allowed 16 and 17 year olds to vote in the Scottish Referendum, which what's the difference between that and this vote? Why shouldn't the people who are going to be affected have no say in the decision?24 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Samuel Miller

Wealth Tax on Homes Worth £1M+So many social issues the UK faces today are to do with the fact that "trickle down" economics proved to be a myth. Societies down the ages have faced the choice: redistribution or revolution. The U.K. may be far from the latter; but anger and frustration is felt by millions. A sensible wealth tax is always possible. All that stands in the way is political will. An unbalanced society is healthy for nobody. Make the change before anger turns into rebellion.6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Trevor Barton

Vote using an app. Give us more information and influenceBenefits * a more realistic reflection of the countries opinions * A more modern approach to voting, making it easier and quicker for people to do so. * A faster way to count votes with a more accurate result * People will feel like they have more influence and control over the political issues in our country * Easier for people to get involved with issues that they are particularly passionate about * People will have a more educated approach to voting as full information will be provided before voting. * Younger people will engage with their government and politics more. * Easier for over seas and military voters "Petitioning, a practice from medieval times, was used by the working class in the 19th century to demand the vote in their millions; yet the government of the time was quick to reject the multiple petitions they presented. The Speaker, John Bercow, promised that the internet would change all this. Indeed the public appetite for petitions has not abated. When the government launched its own e-petitions site two years ago, the volume of traffic caused it to crash on its first day. E-petitions can and do work. Remember when Malalai Joya was nominated for the Nobel Peace prize or when BBC 6 Music was saved from closure? How about when campaigners won a fight to keep a woman on our banknotes? These campaigns owe their success to the rise of digital platforms such as change.organd 38 Degrees." - theguardian.co.uk Let us once again petition to change the way that the UK public vote and influence politics, using the power of online petitioning, to ultimately create the equivalent power of online politics and voting. Sign up now and be a part of the modern political movement!5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Thomas Whitby

Call for by-elections in Newark, Clacton and Rochester and Strood after Tory fraudDemocracy is a farce if cheating in an election is permitted regardless of how late the wrong doing is discovered and whether or not police action is possible. Political parties that gain office through electoral fraud should not be allowed to continue with impunity, they must demonstrate that they have legitimate support of the electorate.4,416 of 5,000 SignaturesCreated by Peter Lihou
