  • Give Tariq Jahan the honour he deserves
    During a time of rapidly increasing tension and violence in North Birmingham in 2011 Tariq agreed to speak to the crowds despite having very recently lost his son in the violence: "Basically I lost my son," he told the crowd. "Blacks, Asians, whites - we all live in the same community. Why do we have to kill one another? "What started these riots? And what's escalated? Why are we doing this? I lost my son. Step forward if you want to lose your sons. "Otherwise calm down and go home."

  • Ensure all Employers Liability Insurance covers repatriation for British citizens
    In the tragic event when someone dies the family are left to organise their funeral arrangements whilst grieving their loss. If a British person dies overseas the extra stress and worry of having to repatriate their body can have serious consequences to the family, both in a heavy financial burden and emotional strain. Recently a British lorry driver from Wakefield died in Italy of natural causes whilst waiting for a ferry to Greece. His employer stated that because he was not in an accident they were not covered under their employers liability insurance to recover the costs of repatriating his body back to the UK, even though he was still physically employed by them. They did however immediately send another driver to collect their lorry, and offered £5000 towards the cost of repatriation - as long as the family did not tell the national press their story. With the unexpected worry of having to find the extra cost of thousands of pounds to repatriate his body, the dead driver's family were left with no other option than to reach out to the transport community via a crowdfunding campaign. The campaign was extremely successful and over £20'000 was raised within 3 days, because lorry drivers and other transport personnel all over the country were disgusted that the driver's employer would not cover the cost of repatriating his body after 12 years of employment, even though they have a multi million pound turnover. They chose money over empathy, reputation over compassion, inconvenience over pure decency and honor, and they chose to leave one of their own staff member's dead body in a foreign country over doing the right thing. This time the drivers community came through for him and his family, but someone else might not be so lucky. The devastating and heart breaking thought of not being able to bring your loved one's body home to rest is unthinkable. The transport community would like the Government to put legislation into place so this can never happen to another British person again. A very tiny rise in national insurance contributions will raise enough money to cover the cost of repatriation for normal British civilians. Hundreds of British citizens die overseas every year, caused by terrorists or natural death whilst on holiday, natural disasters and work related deaths. Army, Navy and RAF personnel are all repatriated back home, so why can't normal citizens have that right too? MOD personnel serve their country by protecting it and those at risk of harm in other countries. Normal British citizens serve our country by working and keeping the economy strong. This petition to the Government is dedicated to all British citizens who die overseas. Please choose compassion over money and doing the right thing over inconvenience. Please support this campaign and sign this petition. It could be you or one of your loved ones who needs repatriating next. Thank you.

  • Save our Barry
    It is important because it has become apparent that a small minority want to spoil things for the vast majority by objecting to Barry selling ice-cream from his beautiful cart in Lelant. It is vital these people who objected see that Barry has the support of people whose common sense and community hasn't been lost and who support him in all the advantages he brings to the village. Let's not let small minded bigots spoil our community, let's join together and sign up here to support Barrys application.

  • KEEP THE DOG BAN`S IN PRIME PLACES TO KEEP CHILDREN SAFE!
    Im all for dogs being on certain parts of the beach just not Prime Spots which are in force along our Lincolnshire Coast. I understand there is a petition to try and lift a certain peice of lands ban but in my opinion it would have a effect on the safety of 1000`s of children that play in the area ( between Ba Rumba and Bibbys Beach Bar )

  • Please invoke International Law on Ryanair or amend British Law
    Ryanair threatened to leave two disabled octogenarians and myself aged 76 at Malaga airport because we were unable to download inbound boarding cards, which they do not allow to be downloaded before the outbound flight. We could not download them in Spain because we do not own smartphones. We were humiliated at the airport and forced to scrabble around for the cash. The stress has had an effect on all three of us and spoiled what had been a recuperative holiday. Michael O'Leary, the Chief Exec. of Ryanair told me personally that I should have bought on at an internet café or an hotel." Why not just allow them to be downloaded before flying?" I asked him. I have not yet had a reply to this simple question. Many people have been fined in this way and I would like them to sign this petition. I have two letters from O'Leary refusing to return our money.
