• Keep our London Stock Exchange independent
    Germany has a very different outlook on money matters from this country. If we are to keep control of our own traditional London Stock Exchange it can not have a man in charge and a second in command both from the German Stock Exchange. To be a part of bringing a historical and proud tradition to an end by doing nothing, merely to please big business, is not the way I want to be remembered.

  • Save our Steel industry
    40,000 jobs+ are at stake. The wellbeing of families in Port Talbot, Rotherham, Corby, and Shotton is at steak. Wales and the North have already suffered with the closures of the coal mines. Unemployment brings misery, poverty and low self esteem which can lead to mental and physical illness. I live in Devon but my family comes from South Wales. Let's all support each other no matter where we live!

  • KEEP COMPLEMENTARY THERAPIES IN PALLIATIVE CARE
    Currently complementary therapies are available to those suffering from life threatening and terminal illnesses and their carer's. It must be a retrograde step to deny support in any form to anyone coping with difficult health issues. NICE would like to exclude in 2018 this care. As a person who has had cancer I can assure everyone that the complementary therapies I received helped enormously. Surely people deserve treatments that benefit their well being in their hour of need. So please sign to let NICE know that we do not want complementary therapies to be downgraded.

  • Fly the flag for Iraq
    Iraqi lives are just as important as those in western countries. Showing this would be a decent first step towards recognising this.

  • Sell the Palace of Westminster
    We are continually told by Government that privatisation or the involvement of the private sector is the cure for all economic woes. The NHS is suffering from creeping privatisation, the national rail system was sold off years ago and the government is currently selling off executive agencies such as Ordnance Survey regardless of the business case. However they appear to be strangely reluctant to apply their policies at the heart of government by selling off their own premises. About £3.5 billion will need to be spent in the next few years on repairing the Palace of Westminster in the least expensive option considered. The buildings are apparently subsiding and are in any case very vulnerable to rising sea levels. The government should accept the logic of their own policies and relieve us of this expensive burden by relocating to a less expensive location (possibly an out-of-town retail area with good communications), and to complete the package outsource their day-to-day support services to one of the many out-sourcing companies they consider competent to manage hospitals, prisons and the rail network.

  • For the BBC to now address George Osborne as "Right-Wing"
    George Osborne wanted to take away payments from the disabled to give tax breaks to the rich. This is a right wing agenda and should be recognised by the BBC. The BBC was very quick to label Jeremy Corbyn as "Left-Wing" but has so far been reluctant to address George Osborne as "Right-Wing" we need to address the balance.

  • No Goverment bench questions at PMQ's
    PMQ's should be an opportunity for the Opposition and other parties to hold the government to account. The fact that the government use 50% of this time to answer questions only that confirm and "back slap" policies is a waste of parliamentary time.

  • Don't cut vital support for disabled people in South Holland and The Deepings
    George Osborne has announced plans to take £70 a week away from thousands of people with disabilities, by cutting Personal Independence Payments (PIP). For many of us, this will mean losing the crucial support which enables us to get out of the house. Many people in our area would be hit hard by this cut. This petition calls on our local MP to do all they can to stop this cruel and unfair plan. Please, show your support for local people with disabilities and help stop the cuts to PIP.

  • PROTECT PERSONAL INDEPENDENCE PAYMENTS
    There are a number of vulnerable people within your constituency who depend on the Disabled Living Allowance/PIP, often their family fill the position of carer placing limited or zero demands on Social Services. They budget their money carefully in the main travelling independently to Doctors & Hospital appointments avoiding the need to use ambulances etc...Independence in respect of many aspects of life will be taken away if these cuts go ahead!
