Stop Ordnance Survey & Migration Lawyers ads on #Muslimban Cheerleaders BreitbartBreitbart News Network has been a cheerleader for Trumps presidential campaign and continues to promote his far right agenda - applauding the #Muslimban, slurring opponents of the ban and supporting French National Front leader Le Pen's plan to bring the ban to Europe. After we started this petition Newman University pulled their ads from #MuslimBan cheerleader Breitbart Media. Stating 'our values of social justice and the common good are extremely important to us'. Ordnance Survey and UK Migration Lawyers should not be paying for adverts in racist far right publications. We call on them to pull their ads from Breitbart immediately.94 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Undoing Borders

Stop Job Centre ClosuresThe DWP is planning to close 20 more job centres to try to reduce costs. This will create more problems for jobseekers, who are likely to be short of funds. If they can afford the fare, they will most likely to depend on public transport, which seems to be becoming less reliable. Surely then they will be more likely to be sanctioned, only increasing their difficulties. This government is supposed to be helping job seekers into jobs. Closing job centres is instead going to make life harder for many.115 of 200 SignaturesCreated by John Mullen

Stop decreasing the supply of nursesThe NHS depends on nurses. Less people training to become nurses = less nurses. (The removal of bursary funding for nursing courses has resulted in a steep drop in people taking the course) 'University applications have fallen by 5% - with the decline driven by a drop in European Union students and a sharp fall in nursing applications.' BBC news 2nd February 2017 The government needs to stop attacking the NHS and start supporting it.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Crispin Caws

DRASTIC PLASTIC UKPlastic, is not the disposable, one use magic material we were led to believe in the 1950's. The miraculous cheap, lightweight, disposable, durable substance, was years later, discovered to be toxic, none biodegradable, and is having a huge global negative effect for both humans and animals. Plastic never disappears into nothing, it is always there, breaking down into small micro plastics, which attract toxic, harmful chemicals damaging all life on the planet including ourselves. Fish in the oceans, are consuming, these meaning that we are too. It's killing marine plant life which provides 70% of the earths oxygen, after all, the world is mostly blue, not green. We've produced more plastic in the past ten years than we have in our entire history with not even half of it being recycled. 8 million tones of plastic being put in the ocean a year. Other countries across the world are taking the lead with plastic bag bans, plastic cutlery and plates bans and the 'zero waste Europe' network installing plastic bottle deposit and recycling schemes, why are we so behind!? Further reading... FEW FACTS It’s a durable, versatile material ideal for many applications, however, over 50% of it is used once then thrown into landfills or the ocean. More than 8 million tons of plastic is dumped in our oceans every year 300 million tonnes are produced every year, producing more over the last ten years than during the whole of the last century. To produce one plastic bottle, it takes 6 litres of water. Which is six times the amount of water that’s going to be put inside it! Plastic production accounts for 8% of the world’s oil preserves. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT Fish in the north pacific ingest 12,000 to 24,000 of plastic per year. 97.5% of Laysan Albatross chicks (Sea birds) have plastic in their stomach causing death and potential extinction. The ratio of plastic to plankton in the Mediterranean Sea is 1 to 2. In the most polluted places there’s six times more plastic than plankton. 1 in 3 species of marine species are endangered from entangled in marine litter and ingestion. Plastics toxic emissions are damaging marine eco systems which are dependent on marine plants. These plants produce 70% of the earths oxygen and remove 40% carbon. This has resulted in over 405 dead zones in the world, 5000 sq miles of the gulf of Mexico almost devoid of life being one of them. HOW THIS EFFECTS HUMAN HEALTH? Scientific research has proven plastic releases harmful chemicals. Micro plastic in the ocean absorb high levels of pollutants and dangerous endocrine disrupting chemicals, which can cause cancerous tumours, birth defects, infertility, developmental disorders and anything else hormone related. Fish that we eat are eating these plastics meaning it’s getting into our systems as well. NOT DISPOSABLE You can never ‘throw plastic away’, it’s always there. Either in the form of a smog in the ocean, or shipped to different countries. Since recycling is not a very profitable market. China banned being sold plastic in 2016, so now it gets exported to places like India where people sort through endless rivers of rubbish to find pieces to sell. The rest makes it was down the river into the sea.

Improved Bus Service in Southeast LondonAs is typical in South London, it can be more straightforward to travel to Central London than it is to get across one part of South London to the next. Currently to get from Dulwich Wood Avenue to East Dulwich via Lordship Lane entails catching 3 buses. The very irregular 450, which at times can be in 15 minute intervals, the very irregular 363 on Sydenham Hill with waits of up to ten minutes. Finally the 176 or 185 on Lordship Tavern. By car, the school run would take 10-15 minutes. By bus, it can take up to 45 minutes. This is just wrong and puts extra pressure and stress on those with kids attending school in that area. What we require is a direct bus service connecting Crystal Palace to East Dulwich via Lordship Lane. This would make the journey quicker and easier and should help to reduce the need to drive, thus removing traffic from the local roads.43 of 100 SignaturesCreated by MICHAEL MILLS

Roadworks Affecting Local Businesses in Wylds RoadBusinesses are suffering with lack of customers due to the current one way system. The works were originally planned to be 29 weeks, but have now been extended to 41 weeks. Businesses are concerned about the fall in trade and the financial impact this will have on their takings. This in turn could mean closure for some of the smaller companies and possible unemployment for their staff.126 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Ollie Pole

Reduce speed limit outside Haygrove schoolCurrently the speed limit outside Haygrove School, Bridgwater is 30mph. I think it would be beneficial to change the speed limit to 20mph. This is a road that needs to be crossed by many students immediately after they leave school. Not only would this ensure students have a safe walk to and from school, it would encourage them to walk which has a positive impact on the environment. However, parents drop children off directly outside school which can become unsafe for other drivers and children.94 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Eleanor Newman
