Save Royal Gunpowder MillsThe Trustees need funding, but have only approached this one commercial operation without spreading their net wider. Too much of our history is being thrown away or sold off. The Mills supplied Trafalgar,Waterloo, and were the major supplier of propellants for WW1. The visitor attraction will not be able to continue with it's heart torn out and fenced off.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Russell Orchard

Tunnock's Stop Using Palm OilTunnock's is a well known and loved Scottish brand, not only in its native Scotland, but around the world. Tunnock's should pave the way in the biscuit industry as being a leader in important environmental issues and show to be ecologically and environmentally responsible. Using uncertified palm oil in biscuits is contributing to the destruction of rainforests and the near extinction of orangutans and Sumatran tigers. For the unsustainable palm oil industry to flourish indigenous people´s homes are threatened, deforestation leaves animals homeless, carbon dioxide emits poison contributing to greenhouse gases and animals such as orangutans are either killed, badly hurt, starved, or left as orphans. Enjoying a Tunnock's Tea Cake should not reflect such monstrosities.6,831 of 7,000 SignaturesCreated by Louise Devlin

Don't extend the trams in EdinburghThe existing trams finally came into service several years later than planned, eight stops short and 50% over its budget, at a cost of £776 million.The project has left Edinburgh the second most indebted council in Scotland, with total borrowing of more than £1.4 billion – nearly £3,000 for every resident. The new extension is estimated to cost over £162 million. The project would be part-financed by securing a £25 million “extraordinary dividend” from publicly-owned Lothian Buses, which means reduced investment in buses, job cuts, fare rises and a possible sell-off - another rip-off for the local people. Edinburgh has one of the best and most affordable bus services in the UK, so there is no need of trams extension. The City of Edinburgh Council should not come to a decision to extend the lines before the Tram Public Enquiry is completed. The money that will be spent on the needless trams extension could be used on community services, so The Council doesn't need to cut any services.1,222 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Georgi Ivanov

Stop MPs Fillibustering!There have been THREE occasions when MPs in the House of Commons have "Fillibustered". Hospital car parking charges for carers, inhumane treatment by private landlords towards their tenants, and now First Aid Training for children in schools are all issues that have recently been "Fillibustered" in Parliament recently. THIS MUST CEASE! It is NOT what our MPs were elected to do!1,250 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Kevin Russell

Keep Gluten Free Food on PrescriptionThey have made this decision, without consultation with patients, or other interested parties, such as Coeliac UK in order to save £70 000per annum. Whilst I am fortunate enough to be able to make the additional food purchases that will be required, many people will not be in the same position as me and will eat gluten containing food to save money. The CCG further state that gluten free foods are now of a similar price to gluten containing food, which is simply not the case. Furthermore, those who do not live with access to a supermarket that sells such food (and most local, or convenience stores do not) will suffer... There is an additional issue regarding those who are newly diagnosed, who trust the food on prescription, which they know will not give them symptoms.98 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Clive Horton

No to the renaming of Tamesides bus stations to Tameside Interchange, Interchange number 2 and 3.Tameside Council are wishing to rename Ashton Bus Station to Tameside Interchange. Stalybridge and Hyde will in future be known as Interchange #2 and #3. This is very wrong. Not only will it confuse everyone the risk of school children, old folk, people with learning disabilities and people with illnesses such as dementia getting lost, confused and upset is high. We must fight to keep the identity, history and the heritage of our town centres. We do not want them to dissapear.286 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Charlotte Hughes

Stop the privatisation of the Land Registry.The Land Registry records the ownership of all land and property in England and Wales. If private companies get their hands on the Land Registry they’ll have one thing on their minds - profits. This could mean a hike in price for all of us, or a fall in standards because of cost-cutting measures. The Land Registry is a public service that is self funding and is not a drain on public finance. There's no need to sell it off to the highest bidder.324,527 of 400,000 SignaturesCreated by James Ferguson

Save lothian busesIt's important because lothian buses belongs to the people of Edinburgh and the council is plundering their profits for its own agenda with no regard for the consequence, there will be job cuts and service cuts and ultimately it's the people of Edinburgh who will suffer.8,880 of 9,000 SignaturesCreated by Johanne Davie
