Allowing Bikers to use Samuel Smiths PubsMr Smith, for years many of us have been discriminated against for our choice of transport, but now another ban is force, banned from drinking in Sam Smiths public houses, in your own words Bikers are seen as "undesirables" and should not be in the village . In fact the so called "undesirables" are your clients and villagers and regular customers Mr Smith, these include doctors, police officers, vicars, chefs, quantity surveyors, retirees and many other people from all walks of life and cultures, but seen now as second rate citizens. we would ask you to recognise you are taking away the rights of residents to drink in their own local public house, people who have supported you for decades, including some people who have NO alternative transport, people who have never caused trouble,there is not a single resident of Ulley Village who wanted this ban (the first pub to be hit) nor do any of the regulars who are friends, family and admirers of the bikes and ask you reverse this discrimination719 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Graeme Williams

Save DOL (Dorset Online Learning) from closureDOL (Dorset Online Learning) offers a fantastic opportunity for children in Dorset, who for a variety of reasons, are not able to attend school for their education. Many of our children have been or are lucky enough to receive their education at home via DOL, and complete their GCSE's. We have just discovered that DOL is to be closed by the Dorset Education Department as early as September or October this year, and the 'All Inclusive' education service will be lost, with many children losing their educational lifeline. We all know only too well, how hard we had to fight for our children's education, and feel very passionately that others should be able to receive the same opportunity. We are collectively endeavouring to raise a petition and campaign to save DOL, but only have until 4 September 2017 to do so. We would really appreciate any assistance you may be able offer to save this invaluable service. As the national initiative confirms 'Every Child Matters'. Also as stated in the 'Your Dorset' paper in your own words 'We all face financial constraint, but this should not stop us listening to residents and making sure we are delivering services which make a positive difference to people's lives' Thank you for your time and we hope you will agree that this invaluable opportunity for the children of Dorset should not be lost773 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Mike Haberfield

Fixed Term Tenancies To Legally Have A 2 Month Notice PeriodIn the UK landlords have the ability to exploit tenants to the fullest extent without the tenant being able to do anything if they have to move out. 12 months is a long time and a lot can change in that period (e.g. loss of job, having to relocate, moving to look after sick relatives, breaking up or no longer able to afford rent for whatever reason.) without protection for tenants like this in place, landlords could continue to take rent right up until the end of the period if they are unwilling to negotiate terms, even if the tenant had a unforseen change of circumstance only a month into their contract.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Cara Blackburn

BBC Radio Scotland reverse the decision to remove music from your programmingBBC radio scotland plays a vital role in the Scottish music industry as it supports genres of music that would otherwise not get exposure, World Music, Americana, Folk and many others, there is no need for another talk only radio station in scotland but there is a need for diverse programming that caters to something other than mainstream tastes. As a musician and a music lover from Scotland I would understand if there were many alternatives in this country but quite frankly there aren't, so please do not get rid of something that is not only valued but unique.440 of 500 SignaturesCreated by James Edwyn

Ditch Plastic Bottles at WimbledonIt is predicted that by 2050, there will be more plastic by weight in our oceans than fish. At the moment, the Wimbledon tournament is screened to hundreds of millions of viewers around the world - with images of tennis players and spectators, consuming and throwing bottle after bottle away. Discarded bottles are littered across the courts. Even players are speaking out calling for a ban on single-use plastic bottles at Wimbledon. And British number one - Johanna Konta- wants the All England Lawn Tennis Club to take action. Lord’s Cricket Ground and Glastonbury festival have announced they are both banning plastic bottles at future events.The All England Tennis Club should follow suit. Now is the time for them to take environmental responsibility by not supplying players and others with throwaway plastic bottles at Wimbledon.108,874 of 200,000 SignaturesCreated by Danny Ardeshir

Bring Pearl HomeIn the early 60's the sculptor James Butler RA was commissioned by Maxwell Fry, the architect who designed much of Hatfield Town Centre, to produce a fountain for White Lion Square, which he did and it was subsequently installed and formally unveiled on 18th April 1970. The fountain was decommissioned in 1986 and the centrepiece sculpture, carved from Portland and Derby stone, of a reclining female nude in a shell, locally known as ‘Pearl’, was moved to Hatfield School. The school closed and the site became New Barnfield Library and Resource Centre, which in turn has also closed. In early 2013 the sculpture was removed from the former school site, some minor restoration work was done to it and it is currently languishing in a storage yard forlornly waiting to be re-situated, in a prominent location that’s as yet to be decided despite numerous requests, in Hatfield, where it rightfully belongs. We, the undersigned, request that as part of the forthcoming redevelopment of White Lion Square that the iconic sculpture of a Reclining Nude in a Shell, ‘Pearl’ by James Butler RA, which formally constituted the centre piece of the fountain in the square, that was commissioned and created specifically for White Lion Square, be reinstated in a prominent location back in White Lion Square. The sculpture ‘Pearl’ was created by James Butler RA who is an internationally renowned artist as a site specific piece to adorn White Lion Square and as such it forms part of Hatfield’s historical and cultural heritage. Every effort should be made to return it to its intended location so that it can once again be enjoyed by the public and once again form a focal point within the square, as was its original intention.479 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Mark Lampert

LIFT THE EMBARGO ON NORTHERN CYPRUSThe Ottomans owned the island of Cyprus peacefully for centuries. The British took the island off the Ottomans by default during the war. Britain offered to cede Cyprus to Greece if they would fulfill treaty obligations to attack Bulgaria, but Greece declined. The Greeks have never owned Cyprus. The supposed "illegal war" in 1974 was started by a GREEK JUNTA who was not only killing the Turkish Cypriots, but also the Greek Cypriots and possibly the British there too. It's worth pointing out that the 2 wars in Cyprus, in the 60's and 70's were not started by the Turkish Cypriots. Turkey stepped in to save their ancestral people who are a minority on the island and who were being overpowered by the forces used against them. However this was seen as an illegal action, although morally it was the right thing to do. I would like to think that we would do the same as Turkey, if our citizens abroad were at risk of being wiped out in a country we used to own. No embargo was put on Greece for the Greek Junta starting the war, nor Turkey for their supposed "illegal" actions of protecting the citizens of Cyprus against the Greek Junta and his army. Instead the embargo was put on Northern Cyprus and the Turkish Cypriots who were the victims in this war. It's morally wrong to penalise the victims of a war, whereas the supposed perpetrators get no embargo put against them. The people of Northern Cyprus have had to struggle along for decades and it's only in more recent years that Turkey has started helping them more. I strongly feel that the embargo on Northern Cyprus and it's residents should be lifted and that part of the island should be recognised as an independent country as the South of the island is. Turkish Cypriots have suffered under this embargo for over 40yrs and enough is enough. They should never have been punished for this in the first place. This petition has been set up in the memory of my Mother in Law who recently passed away and had to live through 3 wars in Cyprus.

Save the Parkwood Springs New Age Traveller SiteThe New Age Travellers have been occupying the site next to the Ski Village in Sheffield for approximately 13 years. This has been a home for many people of all ages, beliefs and backgrounds. The occupants have settled there and have looked after the area by cleaning it up, keeping crime down by being security for the surrounding businesses and some grow their own vegetables, herbs and fruit. They have a good relationship with people in the area and have been told by people in the area that they do not have a problem with them living there. Sheffield City Council are wanting to move the travellers as they are wanting to re open the Ski Village as a sports facility. This will make the Travellers homeless and having to find somewhere else to live. This may have an effect on the children living there because they may have to find new schools and may also effect some of the traveller's health. The travellers do not have a problem with the Ski Village reopening in fact they think it is a great idea they just do not want to be evicted because of this. Please would you sign this petition to show the travellers your support and let them keep their home.3,041 of 4,000 SignaturesCreated by Diane Barrett
