• Get international cricket back on terrestial televison
    Sky sports are ruining the beautiful game for the sake of money. Empty grounds, dwindling support and being limited to short highlights on terrestrial television is slowly undermining a great British tradition. We urge Helen Grant to step in and see to it that all sports of "National interests" be given to the masses and not just those who can afford to pay Sky Sports extortionate monthly charges.

  • Remove monarch as head of state and head of church (CoE)
    The majority of the seats in Parliament are currently held by upper-middle class white males who attended public school and therefore do not represent the average Briton. David Cameron is related to the Queen (fifth cousin once removed). Thus, both the head of state and the head of government have only a vested interest in maintaining the status quo, i.e. the maintenance of the richest 1 - 5% in positions of power in the United Kingdom. The citizenry of the UK deserve representation in government. The Queen needs to be removed as head of state and, ideally, to be replaced by a president, elected by and for the people of the United Kingdom.

  • We Want Political Education
    This is important as without political education or information then some young people do not believe that voting or which political party in government affects them. Politics has changed over the past decades, more people are interested in activism politics and not traditional politics. Without political information being given to young people early then they can have this knowledge for the rest of their lives. In the past, politics was past down from generation to generation, but now this isn't happening then the education needs to step in with advice. Education would be on how government works, voting systems, role of MPs etc, in order to keep the ability for teaching to be unbiased then it will not include information on ideology and political parties. Without political information then who knows what might happen in the future, will voter turnout drop like it did from 1997 to 2001? Sign this important petition to get the secretary of state for education to listen!

  • Ivf funding for asexuals
    I think its unfair that straight couples and gay couples can have ivf funding but an asexual person who wants to be on their own cant have ivf funding. I want to change that i think asexual people don't have enough rights either and their needs are just dismissed just because people think its weird or wrong for them to not want a partner. I want equality for asexual people. I want asexual people to be able to have a family to. Why should we not be allowed to have a family just because we are not part of a couple. Also some asexuals are actually diagnosed as infertile and it is a shame to be denied he right to be a mother. To make ivf funding avaliable for asexual single people.

  • The public should be able to fire MP's
    MP's are paid out of taxpayer revenue - the vast majority of MP's are the product of a selection process in which the public plays no part - so we extend them a considerable degree of trust when we believe they will work in the best interests of their constituents and the wider UK population. When it becomes apparent, either through assessment, admission or exposure, that this trust has been broken we should not expect these people to fall on their swords or allow them to be dealt with by their party - we need an empowered body who can terminate their employment and if necessary, refer their conduct to the police.

  • remove PLC status from companies who keep breaking the law
    Too many companies commit fraud or theft, create pollution or corruption or sell produce based on lies. They get away with it constantly. Hiding behind a trick of the paperwork to never be held accountable as individuals because we treat companies themselves with the rights of an individual in court. This means, usually, a company can be punished for breaking the law but individuals cannot. THIS IS IMMORAL AND WRONG. Removing the Limited Liability from the company will force many of these corporates to think twice before putting profit before people

  • Revoke bank licences to operate
    Clearly all the promises from senior management in banks that mistakes will not be repeated, that lessons have been learned, etc have been empty ones. How many more scandals must we endure? Why do we continue to reward failure among those that employ highly paid personnel by allowing them to continue to operate and fail again? Organisations breaching laws, such as those related to health & safety, can be closed down and directors held accountable: time for those who contravene legislation in the financial sector to face similar penalties.

  • In real meetings at gaming events for all staff and players( PAX, Insominia etc.)
    This allows us as players, staff and community to establish an actually community. We all can meet up, find out more about those who we work with and play with and finally connect that final missing bond for us to meet and establish proper friendship.

  • Replace the Human Rights Act with a UK bill of rights.
    The EU Human Rights which the British government helped create has become a joke and we have lost control of the UK's criminal system, unable to deport people who actively want to harm British citizens back to their home countries. We need a bill of rights that protects the British people from harm.

  • Cumbria to secede from England, and the name changed back to Cumberland.
    For far too long now England, in fact the whole UK, has been London and those other little places round the edges. The north never gets a fair deal, especially Cumbria, so it's time we went at it alone. The United Kingdom of England, Scotland, Wales, NI, and Cumberland.....has a nice ring to it.
