Hastings & Rye Support Refugee ChildrenUnaccompanied children in the Calais Jungle are suffering appalling conditions. Many are being abused and have mental health problems. Many have been injured and some killed trying to reach the UK. Their suffering is needless - they have the legal right to be in the UK. The Home Office has the details of nearly 400 young people and children with legal entitlement to come to the UK. They are therefore now our responsibility. Refusing to welcome them is criminal negligence. The Calais Jungle is due to be demolished by October 31. The children must be brought to safety before then. As Hastings and Rye residents, with a proud tradition of helping those in need, we call on Amber Rudd MP to do whatever she can to bring those children to safety immediately.450 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Jamie Osborn

The UK Parliament: Assess and Discuss critical information regarding Syrian catastrophe.Because the extreme bloodshed and destruction in and of Syria is a War Crime foisted on them by the West and their Middle East 'Allies', and just like Iraq and Libya, it is a 'Regime Change' plot based on lies. The creation, arming, paying and transport to Syria of terrorist mercenary interventionist groups is the worst crime of all, a 'Crime Against Peace', which also enshrines War Crimes and Crimes Against Humanity.18 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Paul Barbara

Teach basic British Sign Language and Deaf Awareness in all schools.To promote the inclusion of all hearing impaired peoples in our society. Hearing impairment is often invisible which can lead to the isolation of hearing impaired children and adults in our society. If sign language and deaf awareness is taught in all schools across the UK, the communication barriers between the hearing and deaf world can be dissolved and an enrichment of society can take place which can only benefit all.22 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Susie Webley

Invest in Liverpool Children's CentresThe Healthy Liverpool Agenda recognises the need for focussed early intervention, reducing inequalities and expansion of community based services. In Liverpool a third of our children live in poverty and research shows the detrimental impact this has on their health. Liverpool children's centres have a proven track record of delivering health focussed services including: Targeted speech and language interventions. Breastfeeding support. Healthy Eating programmes. Physical Activity. Mental Health support services. Accident prevention services. Children's centres are a trusted and well established community resource with over 78% of children under 5 accessing a service in 2015. The investment needed is only 0.26% of the total CCG budget. We urge the CCG to recognise this opportunity to invest in partnership working and to invest in the children of Liverpool.2,057 of 3,000 SignaturesCreated by Liz Parsons

Stop the pensioner 'Bedroom Tax'Plans to cut housing benefit will affect people who have worked hard all their lives. Pensioners should not bear the brunt of yet further underhand benefit cuts. The hardest hit will be the poorest of pensioners, those on state pensions. The likes of my mother, who worked hard all her life and brought our family up. We've all been grafters, and now she's being punished by a government that just doesn't care. In fact, it's not that they don't care, it's that they don't even see. My 81 year old mum has been living in a two bedroom council flat for 35 years, it's her home. Pensioners like my mum will lose £14 per week or be pressured into leaving her beloved home. This is yet another example of a government which simply doesn't care about ordinary people in our country and yet again targets the most vulnerable.148,090 of 200,000 SignaturesCreated by Michael Collins

stop advertising of all gambling incuding the lotteryMany people are on a very low salary or living on benefit. These are the people who are most at risk when gambling products are advertised on TV, the internet and in newspapers using essential funds to play poker or betting in an effort to break out of the poverty trap with almost zero chance of achieving that goal. By showing advertisements that give the impression that gambling could be the way out of poverty and towards a world of riches is immoral.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Peter Coomber

Ask Accent to stop selling Coyote FurCanada Goose is a Canadian outdoor clothing company who uses real coyote fur as trim on the hoods of their parkas. Despite the fact that the majority of Canadians abhor the use of fur, Canada Goose actually celebrates the trapping and killing of wildlife for unnecessary, decorative fur trim. In an effort to sway the public, Canada Goose has a “fur policy." Unfortunately the statements made in this “policy” are not intended to inform the discussion on fur, but rather misinform the public with the sole purpose of carrying on with ‘business as usual’. Most Canadians already know that the fur trade is inherently violent, and that fur products derived from this violence are also inherently frivolous649 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Susan May

Remove firearms licence from UKIP leader.Badger culls are not policed by anyone, the police when pushed on any breaches in guidelines (meaning a criminal offence has taken place) will refer complainants to Natural England who in turn do nothing. It's time the police to show they are neutral and not as evidenced time and again an actual pro-cull organisation.1,857 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Freeda Brocks
