Less plastic in Somerset's supermarketsSingle-use plastic water bottles are polluting our environment as they are non-biodegradable. Studies have also shown that traces of plastic are found in the liquids they hold, which has the potential to be damaging to human health. Reusable bottles and cups can last a lifetime and save people money in the long-run. There are many alternative materials to plastic packaging that are biodegradable and just as effective.87 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Georgia Merrell

Council Homes for the ManyLocal estate residents have so far not won any concessions to their vision for the regenerated estate even though these proposals have been in the public arena for well over two years. There have been repeated calls over this time for the Council to commit to delivering on these demands. But so far it has fallen on deaf ears. Enough is enough. It is more than time that residents were listened to. Started by: Phil Bevin (Kingston & Surbiton Labour Party)93 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Phil Bevin

Don't build a tunnel at StonehengeBecause I like catching a glimpse of Stonehenge as I drive past on the A303. Putting the road in a tunnel will spoil this pleasure for millions, and their children.101 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Andy Tribble

We need LBGTQA Fiction and Non Fiction sections in BookshopsIf you walk into a chain Bookstore like WHSmith, Waterstones, The Works etc. you will almost inevitably never find Gay, Lesbian and Trans related fictional material that is clearly and obviously available for purchase and Non-fiction is often hidden away among Feminist and activist books which for many is highly inaccessible or is culturally shunned. This places young people and indeed older members of the Queer community in a truly difficult position. LBGTQA+ fiction is notoriously hard to get hold of in Highstreet chains and is often hidden among books about Hetrosexual people where you have to physically ask staff to find it for your which for some LBGTQA+ people puts them at risk. There needs to be at least a shelf or two dedicated to LBGTQA+ fiction and non fiction so that LBGTQA+ people can access cultural resources that involve them and their identities. It will also help to normalise the existence of LBGTQA+ people and grant educational resources to those who aren't that are accessible to all ages. Granting LBGTQA+ Fiction and Non Fiction their own dedicated section will display the historical literary achievements of people within those minorities in a way that no other place does.8 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Hanna Sutcliffe

Amazon to reduce paper/plastic packagingAs we are already aware we live in a world that over pollutes and are wasteful. Its important to the generations that are coming up behind us that we leave a legacy, but big companies must lead by example. When i order small items, I continuously receive these in big boxes and lots of plastic packaging. This is completely unnecessary.54 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Lilian New

Say NO to passports being produced anywhere but the UKThe main reason 1) security a passport is a critical document and should not be made outside the UK 2) if we loose the jobs then the supposed 124 million savings will be wiped out in lost tax, NI, and increased benefits 3) we should be protecting and supporting our industry not giving business to countries that Would not allow that to happen in their country. 4) we are leaving the EU so it's not in our interests to allow another company to have such a hold over our security. 5) Britain has fantastic companies doing great things and if we are to succeed we need to give them every help we can138 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Dereck Anderson

Regular Day Bus Service Between Beaconsfield, Penn and HazelmereIn Beaconsfield congestion keeps getting worst and it is mostly due to people driving into the train station and to school during peak times and this means that it can take you 30 minutes to get into Beaconsfield on the Penn Road. Also Knotty Green is currently a blank spot for a regular bus service and has a 30 minute walk into Beaconsfield to get the bus/train. So an extension of these routes would reduce congestion and provide a vital link between Beaconsfield, Knotty Green, Penn and High Wycombe.28 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Gareth Jackson

Food recycling scheme in WandsworthFood waste that is sent to landfill doesn’t harmlessly breakdown. It has a big impact on the environment as it rots and releases methane – a harmful greenhouse gas that is 25 times more potent than carbon dioxide. However, it’s not all bad news if we could be able to recycle our food waste. Many councils offer a food recycling collection service. The schemes vary, with some councils collecting food waste mixed in with garden waste, while others collect the food waste separately, but Wandsworth decides to don't provide 'this service'. Citizens, environment and farmers could enjoy food recycling if you sign this petition.22 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ana Bolivar

Keep Manchester Diabetes Centre on Hathersage RoadMany of the patients who attend Manchester Diabetes Centre have mobility issues. Not all but a considerable amount. Enforcing wheelchair users who have become accustomed to the large car park and one tier access are going to struggle in a busy hospital environment. The staff at the centre are always a constant, which gives people suffering with chronic illnesses some comfort and less feeling of anxiety.8 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Sarah Milne

Refusal to pay fees for graduation ceremony due to a lack of reimbursement from the strike action.We have already paid a substantial amount of money to subsidise our learning and yet have not had the services that we paid for available to us. Our grades will be affected for a life time and we cannot get this time back. We deserve to at least receive a celebration considering we have paid £27,000 to attend Goldsmiths University and it is the least they can do.85 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Alev Carty

Ban Horse Jump Racing34 horses have died this year alone due to this cruel sport. These animals are bred for 1 purpose, to entertain humans. The same as fighting cocks, and vicious dogs. Our sport and our amusement, yet 2 of these are BANNED, why not not the other? Because it is a form of taxation for the British Government. It has to stop. It is cruel. 1668 Deaths in 4026 Days in the U.K. alone. Please share if you care.156 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Dave Horwood

Save Struan LodgeLess than two years ago the Cowal and Bute communities made it clear that they strongly opposed the closure or Struan Lodge and Thomson Court respectively. It is simply immoral, unethical and unthinkable that vulnerable elderly residents and their families should have to be put through this cruel and stressful process once again. Our health and care services must be kept in public ownership for allmif us now and in future.81 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Duncan Macgillivray
