For many years there has been a legitimate but virtually uncontrolled trade in tickets for entertainment and sporting events. Event tickets are purchased at face value by individuals and companies with no desire to attend. They are then sold on at hugely inflated prices, often many hundreds of pounds above the face value, without the original purchaser adding any value what so ever. Or they sell the ticket as part of a package, perhaps including travel and accommodation, at a ridiculously inflated price, because it includes event tickets. This practice is immoral, these people/companies contribute nothing but take as much as they can possibly get and, in so doing, deny ordinary fans the joy of attending a live event.

Education is arguably as important a social good as policing. Those responsible for ensuing that public money is effectively spent on improving educational outcomes should be answerable to the electorate.

As your first act as Mayor please cancel the folly and wasted expense of a Garden Bridge that no-one wants apart from Joanna Lumley and her chums. It is a vanity project that will do nothing for ordinary Londoners and is just a waste of money.

It proves to young people that democratic systems work

To Create and maintain a SAFER, CLEANER environment for ALL Residents of Archers Park. Please sign this petition in order to show that you agree.

The Windmill Public House is a traditional meeting place and community focus for the village. It is registered as an Asset of Community Value [AVC] . It is within a conservation area and adjacent to Charlton House which is a historic listed building within the Green Belt. CAMRA North Hertfordshire Branch argue that the changes proposed by the current owner will preclude it from from ever returning to having the status of a much loved village pub.

No two schools are alike. But the government doesn’t seem to agree. It wants to rush through plans to force every single school in England to become an academy – the type of school paid for by taxpayers, but run by businesses, sponsors or trusts. In Islington this could destroy the Islington Community of Schools, a valuable co-operative partnership between schools (including local Academies) and the local council. Many teachers and parents are already standing against the plans, saying that they’re ‘a step towards privatisation’, ignore local views, and could force some schools to close. One size does not fit all, and local parents and teachers should have a say in the future of our school. ------ If this isn't your local school, click here to sign your local petition, or start one if no-one else has yet: https://secure.38degrees.org.uk/start-a-campaign-for-your-school

Since the mid 90s young and old people have been able to test their Ecstasy pills in the Netherlands. Since the mid 90s there have been less than a hand full of deaths due to this. Fast forward to Britain present day. Imagine the polar opposite, imagine parents crushed with nothing else to live for but planning their beautiful son or daughters funeral. Here you have present day Britain because Cameron and his despicable party will not allow or even understand why ecstasy testing needs to be brought into everyday society in the UK. This could be in a nightclub environment (ideally) or a place people can go to test their ecstasy before the party. The most obvious example are: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leah_Betts The most recent and heart wrenching is: http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/teen-girl-who-died-after-11275478 The family of the above had already lost 2 children. They lost another due to our government demonising people for taking such substances, but they allow and endorse alcohol that kills approximately 22'000 people a year! When was the last time you heard about an ecstasy user harming another human being? Then ask yourself when was the last time you heard about an alcohol abuser harming? I don't need to ask you the answer. How long is it before your son or daughter experiments? How long is it before your son, daughter, brother, sister or cousin thinks it's a good idea? One day it will be someone you know, someone you hold dear. Someone who is the Faye Allen in your life. Someone you know who dies. Sign this petition to get ecstasy testing stations obligatory in UK nightclubs without fear or reprimand to the users. They're not murderers, they are not rapists, they are one of us just wanting to live. They do not deserve to die. They are not guinea pigs. They are not nothing

Because kids should not have this information easy to access. We've thought we were prepared using OpenDNS to avoid opening various adult related sites and I've found my 7 year old kids watching really explicit nudity pictures that Google does not block. The only technical solution after reading in Forums is to block Google and YouTube, but a company like Google should have the same safeguards that Bing has. Googlesafe works only when you are logged in, but the majority of times, when kids use search engines they are not logged in, so it is pretty useless.

In the past angling was the looked upon as for the "rich" The SNP are now been seen to revert back to these times making it inaccessible to many. Not only was "one for the pot" the law of the day but now a tax on catches seems to be the way,

It is widely recognised that junior doctors are the lifeblood of the modern NHS. They are the consultants of the future, and through years of dedicated training provide a truly 24 hour a day, seven day a week service. The proposed contract undermines safe working practices, reverts to a previously failed system and has been roundly rejected by the workforce. It is openly discriminatory against female doctors. The proposed changes are based on flawed analysis of data that suggests a “weekend effect” and while we are keen to improve safety in hospitals across the UK, this contract will harm patients, harm the workforce and harm the training of junior doctors. Further to the overwhelming rejection of this contract by junior doctors, they have huge support from consultant colleagues, multiple Royal Colleges and the public as a whole. Please publicly reject the imposition of this contract at Stockport NHS Foundation Trust and call for new negotiations without pre-condition in a mark of support for the hard working and dedicated doctors employed by the Trust.

We believe the BBC, as one of the nation's most trusted and treasured organisation, should be allowed to continue providing a broadcast and on-line service without political interference aimed at befitting the profits of its commercial rivals.
