Islamophobia and sexism has no place in the BBC or BritainThe Real Housewives of ISIS is an extremely distasteful and offensive show. It is Islamophobic by how it depicts Muslim women, regardless of them being related to ISIS. The show stigmatises women and symbolises acts of everyday sexism suffered by women across the UK. Satire is created to fight against oppression – not feed into sexist and Islamophobic rhetoric. Muslim hate crimes are mostly carried out against women – this show will further fuel hate in Britain towards women in hijab and niqab.1,568 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Sofia Jawaab

Make Hampshire Constabulary act on all reports of dangerous drivingThis is important because the lives of myself and hundreds of other vulnerable road users have either been put at risk, altered by injury or taken by dangerous drivers, who then face little to no repercussions for their behaviour. At the moment, unless there's a collision, the force will take no further action, claiming that anything less doesn't meet the CPS threshold for dangerous driving, despite the CPS and Road Traffic Act 1988, who say that it's dangerous driving if there's a risk of injury or serious property damage.113 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Mike Andrews

Don't fine people for begging in CorbyThe idea of fining those who already have so little, that they are forced to sleep out in the cold or ask for food and money is a cruel and heartless act. This is attacking vulnerable people and does not resolving the issues homeless people face. Other campaigns have successfully stopped other councils from imposing similar fines. You can read about the PSPO on the Corby council website here: "The PSPO prohibits: Persons not to beg within the area covered by the PSPO" http://www.corby.gov.uk/public-space-protection-order-place-tackle-anti-social-drinking165 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Paul Brennan

Don't fine people for begging in PooleThe idea of fining those who already have so little, that they are forced to sleep out in the cold or ask for food and money is a cruel and heartless act. This is attacking vulnerable people and does not resolve the issues homeless people face. Other campaigns have successfully stopped other councils from imposing similar fines. Nottingham has proposed £60-100 fines, but others are planning up to £1000. Councils use get-outs that they're "intentionally homeless" or "not vulnerable enough" to avoid helping these people. Most have one or more health conditions. We live in a rich western enlightened democracy apparently. Do you want this to happen in your name? We've already had a response from Poole Council's Safer Communities Manager, Ian Cooke, who invites us all to go and have a chat with him: "if you are so concerned about the plight of the homeless and those begging on the streets of Poole you might like to come and discuss the issues with me". If you'd like to share you views with Mr Cooke please feel free to email him on: [email protected] This campaign is based on this information from Poole council's website, the order lasts for 3 years and was introduced in December 2014: http://www.poole.gov.uk/newsroom/2014-news-archive/december-2014/borough-of-poole-obtains-public-spaces-protection-orders/ If you have anything that suggests that Poole Council are no longer able to fine people for begging then we'd love to hear more from you, drop us an email at [email protected]1,804 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Mark Hannington

Replace Formby Hall and Lowton Civic HallThe communities where promised that when the council sold these hall's to Rose Leisure that the only changes we would see would be Investment and Improvement. All we have seen is the halls to be run down with no investment and Rose Leisure then selling these for a vast profit.277 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Stuart Gerrard

Building local social housing for older peopleNew developments are mostly aimed at younger families and couples, and retirement developments are for purchase. Small scale local social housing for older folk would allow them to stay in their communities and keep their local support network. Please support this petition.17 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Wanda Lewcun

Save Poole Park RailwayUpdate from Chris Bullen Guys we are now preparing a face book page and a petition outlining the truth.. this will be the official page about not saving the railway or even fundraising it is about saving the track. The council have demanded the rails to be removed by the end of February. So the railway operation can be tendered to any interested parties. However if these rails are removed when and if they are replaced the whole railway will need to be fully fenced both sides. As a Poole park user you know this is not possible or even likely and Chris Bullen feels he will be responsible for the demise on Poole park railway forever. Will keep you all updated on here till we have finalised the Facebook.. Chris bullen is deverstated at the news he received today in his meeting and only has the future of poolepark railway at heart for future generations regardless of who wins the tender.. Chris is so Humbled at all your comments of support and will fight this to the bitter end .. please note he is not dieing for cancer .. maybe a vicious rumour put around so he can bow out gracefully which he's not prepared to do . Please sign our petition .. THANKYOU XX10,002 of 15,000 SignaturesCreated by Caroline Compton

Don't fine people for begging in NorthamptonPeople are homeless for a wide range of reasons; many are vulnerable, experiencing mental illness or the impact of traumatic life events and most have no financial security. Any one of us with the right combination of unfortunate circumstances could find ourselves in a position of being homeless and of needing to resort to asking passersby for money or food. Please encourage our local Northamptonshire councils to find more effective and compassionate ways of dealing with the issues related to begging than imposing fines that homeless people are unlikely to be able to pay. This campaign is based on this information from Northampton council's website: http://www.northampton.gov.uk/downloads/file/9044/draft-public-spaces-protection-order If you have anything that suggests that Northampton Council are no longer planning to fine people for begging then we'd love to hear more from you, drop us an email at [email protected]438 of 500 SignaturesCreated by M Jewell
