We need a Police Station in Cambridge City CentreCambridge needs a city centre base for our police officers to be able to walk and cycle from, with patrol cars to be able to quickly respond to an emergency situation. Our city is growing fast, and copes with seven million visitors each year already. We need to maintain a high level of police presence on our streets. An information point is simply not good enough.820 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by Nicky Massey

Prohibition of Verge and Pavement Parking (Traffic Regulation Order)TROThe residents on Ashland have had issues with people parking their cars inconsiderately for a long time now. This causes problems to people who are either with pushchairs or have to use mobility aids to gain access to the pathways around the estate estate leaving them vulnerable to be hit by a car when they have to go on the road to pass a car parked illegally. We also have a huge issue whenever there are football matches or other events on at the stadium MK, where people park on footpath‘s, blocking people‘s driveways or on the corner of roads and verges. This is becoming dangerous and there have been so many near misses to the most vulnerable who live on our estate. Pavements are not designed to have cars half or fully parked on, this will eventually cause the pavements to break and potholes appear. The estate has been built with adequate parking. Parking in a footpath is illegal either half or fully is illegal. So we are requesting that the council put in the regulation to stop this issue. So we can live in a safe estate.64 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Francesca Hill

Stop oil exploration in Cardigan Bay Marine SACCardigan bay Marine SAC is an important breeding and feeding area for bottle nose dolphins and harbour porpoises. An environmental impact assessment carried out by London based Orbis Energy has admitted that the proposed seismic activity would have detrimental consequences affecting all forms of wildlife including shellfish, marine mammals and seabirds as well as fish spawning grounds. Previous extensive seismic surveys have been conducted and have revealed no commercial quantities of hydrocarbons within the area and do not need to be repeated. If however there were any viable reserves discovered the extraction of such would cause irreparable damage to this sensitive marine area and the life it supports whilst making a mockery of the designation of a marine SAC. Equally at a time when Wales has declared a climate emergency to proceed with the extraction of more fossil fuels is sheer madness. If you have ever been fortunate enough to witness the bottlenose dolphins of Cardigan Bay you will understand the importance of protecting their precious habitat for future generations, if not I sincerely hope that you will be able to one day! Please sign and share this petition to ensure we can take it to the UK Government and overturn this reckless decision.7,547 of 8,000 SignaturesCreated by Steve Parkin

Save British Steel ScunthorpeYet again the forgotten North has suffered at the hands of the, turn the other cheek, Tory government. Even though Scunthorpe British Steel was making a profit, the company has gone into liquidation today. The government have used excuse after excuse to avoid investing £30 million to save the site. Scunthorpe has been linked to steel for 150 years. Since Victorian times, Scunthorpe played a major role in the industrial revolution. In 1964 weekly production of steel trebled to 9000 tonnes. It played a major part in wartime weapons and vehicle production. In 1988 it was fully privatised, facing the prospect of being undercut by cheap steel from countries such as China. Britain's steel has been renowned for its quality and supply in everything from shipbuilding to railway lines. But cheap imports were favoured above quality, causing a detrimental effect on Scunthorpe's productivity. In Scunthorpe, to lose this major site will result in the creation of a ghost town. Poverty will rise and this government won't prevent this decimation. Yet they happily bail out banks, whose loss was created by greedy bonuses. These men and women have already took pay cuts to save the plant, yet this goes unnoticed. They don't deserve this disgraceful repeat of history. I implore this government to Save Our Steel NOW!69 of 100 SignaturesCreated by W D Russell

Fair Holiday Prices for ParentsKids, hardworking parents/carers/school staff all deserve a decent break. A great holiday is often the best event of the year. But as soon as school term ends, all the holiday companies wack up the prices for exactly the same holiday they were selling the previous week. Most people simply can't afford these raised prices and so parents/carers are faced with a choice of staying at home or risking their childs education by going in term time.8 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Damian Cooney

Looming PPI Deadline 29/08/19Claiming back PPI taken from their customers without their consent should not be down to the customers to claim it - It should be the institutions and companies that stole it in the first place to own up and just give it back. The claim process is deliberately complicated and peppered with traps and loopholes and can only really be successfully negotiated by specialist collection companies who charge a huge percentage cut from any recovered money to do so on customers' behalf. Complaining to the Ombudsman is just as complicated and frankly an unnecessary waste of their time. It's not just PPI payments that should be returned to their rightful owners, but also any interest made by the perpetrators PLUS compensation to the victims for not having that money available when they could have used it.16 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Bryn Williams

Keep the skateparkThis is important because it is a way for children to relax, exercise and have fun. To take this skatepark away from us is like taking away our home. I know myself I go down there everyday and always have a good time.15 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Lochlann Thompson

Stop Parking Charges for NHS staff at North Walsham Memorial Hospital.North Norfolk is a rural area and public transport links to and from North Walsham Memorial Hospital are poor so that the majority of NHS staff working at North Walsham have no choice other than to drive to get into work. Staff on the wards can do up to 12 hour shifts including night shifts and bank holidays and public transport doesn't run 24/7. Most community staff require their cars to do their jobs in the local community, visiting patients in their homes throughout the year come rain or shine. Forcing Nurses, Health Care Assistants, Therapists and Administration Staff to apply and pay for parking permits is therefore in effect an additional job tax which hardworking and dedicated NHS staff should not have to pay. We feel it is simply unfair and unjust.755 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Giancarlo Tolaini

Stop the deaths of 100,000 people by giving people in care the support they deserve.Every year more than 100,000 people die in care, that’s almost one person dying every 5 minutes. That’s someone’s Mum, Dad, Son, Daughter, Brother or Sister. Families are left devastated, often without answers and many are prevented from finding out what happened. The victims (and their families), many of whom have been forcibly imprisoned into care through NHS England’s 54 specialist mental health trusts, deserve better. Cases of misdiagnosis are common. Leading to life changing conditions such as PTSD for those trapped, forcibly drugged, threatened, assaulted by those responsible for their care and their inactions, often due to the many complex pressures of the job imposed by those at the highest levels. We are funding a new charitable trust: • Giving all patients the care they deserve. Ensuring cases of misdiagnosis are reduced by prioritising those needing care. • Independently review the unverified medical records, fabricated statements, false allegations & hearsay used to ‘section’ people (using the MHA). • Ultimately, drastically reduce the 100,000+ deaths (to realistic targets to be agreed). Change legislation to make it illegal to detain a person, without a thorough investigation to the allegations of poor mental health without first performing due diligence on their claims. • Develop the technologies needed to support a person through their care. Giving the person the ability to follow simple processes to challenge their detention and present their evidence clearly if they claim a misdiagnosis is being made. • Fully independent legal support to challenge the decisions and compensate victims of misdiagnosis or where their health further deteriorated or ended in their death. Further details here in the press: Denis Campbell for The Guardian on 27th Nov 2018 NHS to look into deaths of 100,000 mental health patients a year https://www.theguardian.com/society/2018/nov/27/nhs-deaths-mental-health-patients-england#QBAIN4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Allister Frost

Sherlock Season 5Sherlockians all have the same thing at the top of their Christmas list. Season 5 of Sherlock. "The return of Sherlock to BBC One was watched by an average of 9.2 million people, according to overnight figures". 9.2 MILLION PEOPLE watched the return of Sherlock for one reason. They wanted to see Sherlock again. I cried when Sherlock 'died', so how many other people do you think cried as well when they thought Sherlock had actually jumped off of Bart's hospital? If 9.2 MILLION PEOPLE watched Sherlock jump off that building, that means at least a few MILLION other people did too.Why? Because we thought that we would never see our great detective ever again, and he WASN'T EVEN DEAD. A few million people cried at a man who hadn't died, so how do you think that made us feel when the whole series ended? I know i'm not alone when I say I would give ALOT to see Sherlock again, so maybe we can convince Mark and Steven to bring our baker street boys back? Sign the petition if you want to give it a try, its worth a go. And just as our favorite detective says "The game, Mrs. Hudson, is on!"16 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ellie Murdoch
