Help Mature students learnDue to illness, I had to change career later in life, however in order to go back to college, I had to rely on my parents to fund my education, but when im qualified I will be paying into the Tax system. I could of sat on disability allowance for the rest of my life, however I am not ready to throw in the towel. I have a lot to offer within society, at the age of 48, I went back to school. There are 20 other students in my class in the same boat, just think how many more would get an education with a little help along the way and will give back in the long run.26 of 100 SignaturesCreated by kim ayre

Close tax loopholes being exploited by large corporationsSmall and medium-sized businesses in the UK are paying a disproportionate amount of tax, which is manifestly unfair. In addition, the Austerity measures and severe cuts to public services would be unnecessary, if this revenue were collected.28 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Angela Steatham

Hold A Referendum On the Decision To bomb SyriaAs a Christian myself, although I have served in HM Forces, I do not believe that we should exacerbate a situation which even Mr Blair has grudgingly admitted, has been caused by the previous wrong decision to go to war in Iraq. We as a supposedly civilised nation should get back to our Christian and Diplomatic roots and strive for peace.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by James Parsons

Improve the behaviour of members of ParliamentThe behaviour of some of MPs in the House of Commons has become completely unacceptable This includes ,shouting ,interupting, sarcasm, hecklng, finger jabbing, and sexist behaviour. it wouldn't be acceptable in my place of work ,or yours, and would quickly become a disciplinary matter. We request a full review of the code of conduct, so that it is up to date and fit for purpose in a modern workplace7 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Anthony Pierre

A curriculum to prepare us all for life?We believe that the place of citizenship education and PSHE in the curriculum should be radically overhauled through a youth-led UK-wide review; they are really important for young people’s growth and development as they teach vital life skills and can be the first steps to engaging young people in political life. Teaching staff should be specifically trained to a national standard to deliver citizenship education following this review. A curriculum to prepare us for life is important to the many young people in the united Kingdom, during the UKYP national debate at the house of commons this came in as the top 5 priority to deal with and as a DMYP i will make sure that there education prepares them for life hence the title 'curriculum to prepare us for life' this will hopefully if successful allow students to gain access to an education that will include things such as: • Political Education • Sex and Relationships Education • Cultural Awareness Education • Community Cohesion Education • Finance Skills Education • Sustainable Living Education • Citizenship Education If you want to know more visit the link below: http://www.ukyouthparliament.org.uk/campaign/curriculum-life/6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by anton dobson

Open Halstead Church to the Homeless for WinterThis redundant Anglican church is empty and not used for religious ceremonies. In the face of continuing "austerity" more and more people are facing a cold winter on the streets. The Church can afford to open this church in an act of Christian goodwill over the winter months. Please help to get the Churches Conservation Trust to open their doors.8 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Donna Tuck

Stop spraying Monsanto glyphosates on Bristol's streets and parks.Bristol Council currently uses four glyphosate herbicides including Monsanto's Roundup on our streets and parks. This is despite the fact that the World Health Organisation (WHO) has identified glyphosate as likely to cause cancer in humans. The WHO finding sits alongside a wealth of existing evidence that raises alarming questions marks over the long term safety of exposure to glyphosate both on its own and in combination with other chemicals found in formulas such as Roundup. The use of glyphosates has already been banned or restricted in 8 countries. It is not acceptable that ourselves, our children and the animals we share this city with are being routinely exposed to these chemicals whether we like it or not. If Bristol is to have any credentials as the current European Green Capital, it must exercise the precautionary principle and follow the example of cities such as Chicago, Paris and Rotterdam by banning this spraying in public places. This is a matter of great importance for those of us who care about each other's health and the health of our children, our cats, our dogs and all the flora and fauna of this city, of course including our beloved bees. For more information see this article from The Bristol Cable: https://thebristolcable.org/2015/10/bristol-monsanto-and-chemicals/ There are viable safe alternatives to glyphosates. The Netherlands have outright banned glyphosates in public spaces and are using a hot water treatment instead. A hot water and foam method is also available in the UK and Bristol Council is already aware that this can be a more effective alternative than hot water on its own. Glyphosates are the cheapest option but we must send the message loud and clear that value is not just about price and that the health and safety issues around glyphosate render its 'cheap and easy' status irrelevant. Other effective methods may cost more in cash terms but represent far better value to local residents. Using a formula such as Roundup in our public spaces is simply unacceptable no matter how cheap and quick it makes the task of urban weed management.7,397 of 8,000 SignaturesCreated by Zaheer Mamon

Reopen Church Street Alleyway & Stop Targeting Peterborough HomelessThe alleyway is used by everyone but at night is used by people who have no where to go and use the alleyway as to shelter from the winter weather and to keep safe. With the closure this year of a homeless charity in Peterborough there is less support for the homeless. We should be looking after our vulnerable population not ostracising them by moving them to places that are less intrusive to our lives, so that they are out of sight. The next time you walk past a homeless person, think about the fact that they have had lives, rich and interesting lives that were thrown into turmoil due to circumstances that are often out of their control. For those people who are not sure if they agree with this petition I would say if it is a problem for a homeless person to stay in that area, then perhaps a more human approach could be adopted – a person telling another person to move along is more humane than closing the alleyway.252 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Darren Bisby-Boyd
