The festival is celebrated annually in Yulin, Guangxi, China, during the summer solstice in June, by eating dogmeat and lychees. About 10,000 to 15,000 dogs are consumed during the 10 days of the festival. This number has decreased to 1,000 in 2015. This festival needs to end. At least one thousand dogs are murdered brutally every year for simply sport. It's disgusting to kill any animal in general but dogs are pets! The sweetest pets you'll ever meet! This is disgusting and could easily be lived without. Not to mention they don't even know what's happening. These innocent dogs just want to help and love and are instead being sold, hunted, tortured, killed and eaten. This has to end. If you want this to end also then please sign this petition! It's a sick "festival" That really says a lot about the people living in these cities.

Because It is wastefull.

War on plastic

Save lives and or injury to others.

On 8 March a teenager was fatally stabbed near where I live. I wrote to the Queen, the prime minister and my MP with 11 specific suggestions for dealing with the emergency including 'spend whatever is necessary because saving lives is more important than reducing the National Debt'. Neither the Queen nor the PM replied to me but I gathered that my letters to them were forwarded to the Home Office. Only my MP replied. Since then I have exchanged numerous letters and emails with officials at Buckingham Palace and the Home Office. It seems to me that none of the people to whom I wrote or emailed, except my MP, actually read my 11 suggestions. Instead I got standard letters telling me government policy, with which I was already familiar. I feel I had wasted my time.

We are living in the 21st Century. Against the backdrop of #MeToo, gender advancement and increased LGBT+ inclusion, disability rights continually are left behind as the poor relation of societal oppression when it is part of the same struggle for liberation. It is, for example, frustrating to see venues hold celebratory 'Pride' when a number of participants are excluded from taking part due to access issues. The request, therefore, that venues sign and state in respect of disabled access is an attempt to promote a dialogue that leads to change

It is sending a wrong message to young women / girls about nudity and self imaged.

If London Councils adopted such a plan, there would be a massive boost towards a cleaner urban environment

To make much more likely a real variety of points of view available to the general public, rather than the largely Establishment supporting voices we get at the moment, The BBC could be a fantastic broadcasting institution and I passionately want it to be.

Hopefully, to get us out of the current Brexit mess.

The extortionate ticket prices make it near on impossible for many people to take their families or loved ones to the cinema to enjoy new movies and experience the big screen. In July Southampton Odeon were charging £19 for 2 adults and 2 children whereas in Salisbury the same tickets, on the same date, for the same film were £41! We feel it is an important part of the city enjoyed by people of all ages and would like to support it in order to keep it. However, the prices drive people away and unless something changes filmgoers will continue to go elsewhere in search of cheaper tickets.

Plants planted in verges provide a motorway for insects and bees. Secondly they trap particles of pollution in their leaf surfaces, and absorb gases through their pores on the leaves. This pollution especially from car exhaust gases is toxic and especially harmful to children and elderly people.
