We want all responsible bodies to come together To raise the standards of dog breeding and sales domestically and across Europe - reducing 'puppy farming'. To increase accountability of breeders and vendors to ensure that the highest welfare standards are employed and evidenced transparently. To ensure more collective action is taken which reduces abandonment To work towards a 'passport' system which records a dog's life - including birth details, medical history and ownership.

Every culture should have their own voice represented in the world's media, particularly in public service broadcasting. In 2003 the Cornish language (Kernewek) received official recognition under the European Charter for the Protection of Regional or Minority Languages. In 2014 the Cornish were granted protected national minority status under the Council of Europe Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities. This means the Cornish have the same recognition as the Welsh, Scots and Northern Irish.

This is so important, the poor and sick suffer even more from greedy car parking firms and a reluctance of government to do anything about it. Added to this is that we already pay for these car parks through our taxes which we pay for the NHS. It is public land our land. Please consider this petition and make the government listen

Castle Toward has been in public ownership for over 20 years. During that time the public has made extensive use of the grounds for a wide range of activities including walking, cycling and horse riding. Paths in the area date back to Victorian times. Nobody knows what the future holds for the estate. It is now December 2015 and Castle Toward does not appear to have actually been sold yet. Once sold it may eventually be resold, or even broken up, and access to the grounds might be lost. Since May, before the Council had even announced it had a prospective buyer, the Council has been asked to officially recognise an important and popular route through the estate as a Public Right of Way. That recognition will enable the Scottish Rights of Way and Access Society to record the route in the National Catalogue of Rights of Way which will give some protection to access for future generations. Please help to get the Council to finally make a decision by signing this petition. Even better why not also get the Council to take account of your own use of the estate by downloading this form and returning it to the Council. The form contains a map of the Right of Way with some interesting features marked. Just click on the link below (or cut and paste it into a browser) then select download. http://www.mediafire.com/view/1e4uhy3x541qi58/Castle_Toward_RightOfWay_form.doc The form asks for a signature but you can just type your name in and send it to the Council email address at the end of the form. You don't need to live in the area or to have used the route frequently for your form to count. You do need to have used the route without asking permission. The longer ago you first used the route the better, we need to show usage for over twenty years. Ideally you will have used the route shown in the form end-to-end, but use of any part of it helps to show its importance. If you have not used the route then why not visit Castle Toward over the festive period for a pleasant walk and then return the form!

The EU referendum is already going to be dominated by the voices of fear and big business that dominate our media. By giving UKIP a further platform to espouse their divisive rhetoric the situation is only going to get worse. The EU is a very flawed institution, it is undemocratic and overly bureaucratic and needs serious reform; but it also enshrines fundamental protection for people at work and the environment (among many other benefits). These are areas the Conservative are already attacking with their draconian Trade Union bill and their shameful attack renewable subsidies and the extension of fracking. By once again excluding the Green Party and ignoring our rising support the BBC is not only acting undemocratically, but is excluding progressive voices and setting the frames of reference for the EU debate in an increasingly negative way. This debate is going to be crucial to the future of society and needs to be as open, inclusive and democratic as possible. We need to ensure all views are heard, and stop them crowding out the viewpoints that care about the interests of ordinary people and our environment.

Lets save the Knowledge and Black Taxis. Today there are far too many PHV (Mini Cabs) on the roads of London, the streets are congested, the pollution is high. We need to cap the amount of PHV (Mini cabs) on the road. We also need to make sure that the London Knowledge (training process to drive a black taxi) is kept the way it is, it works perfectly and keeps the standards high. The Black Taxi has been the most Iconic symbol of London for 100 years and a source of pride, Changing the learning duration to 1 year would destroy an icon of London and the livelihoods of tens of thousands of people.

My family planted a tree in memory of George Taylor My Granddad. It was a place to go and have a chat with George, and over time our grief eased and we got some closure.Watching The tree grow help us through our grief. The council put a sign on 10 trees Stating Due to health and safety reasons and after lengthy consultations we will be removing these trees, Could the owner please contact the Clerk 01246 81186 There is NO HEALTH AND SAFETY REASONS and after 8 weeks of emails I have yet to see any proof of any lengthy consultations. I have been trying to stop the trees being chopped down. But to no avail, the Parish Council, burial committee, and my local councilor have not helped in the slightest and seem to have a god like approach to dealing with me. Information is still being held back. Even though I have requested it under the freedom of information act three times. Could you Please help me by signing my petition,

Blue Cross, Thirsk have stated that MAX was aggressive but this was challenged by Max's previous family. Also Blue Cross would not allow an Independent report being conducted on Max by a Behaviour Expert. Consequently, Max was euthanized today 18th December 2015. People on Facebook are outraged over the way this Animal Charity, has lied and colluded.

More people are getting dementia and losing their properties and their savings

On 16th December MPs backed fracking under National Parks and Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) such as Cannock Chase. We call upon the local authorities whom make decisions on planning applications throughout the County:- Cannock Chase District Council, Lichfield District Council, South Staffordshire Borough Council, Stafford Borough Council and Staffordshire County Council to categorically rule out any fracking (including exploratory drilling) anywhere in the County. Staffordshire County Council is in the final stages of approving a fifteen year local minerals plan through to 2030 which includes specific reference to hydrocarbon extraction including shale gas and coal bed methane both of which can be extracted using the technique of hydraulic fracturing or fracking. Cannock Chase and the surrounding areas are know to contain Coal Bed Methane although no surveying has been undertaken for Shale Gas at this time. This document can be found on the Staffordshire County Council website. Less than a week following an international agreement to address the impact of climate change in Paris with a commitment to limit global temperature increase to less than 1.5 degrees centigrade all 8 conservative Staffordshire MPs voted to allow fracking in these protected areas. To address the catastrophic effect of climate change we must keep fossil fuels in the ground and not experiment with unproven and unsafe technologies putting our environment and drinking water at risk. This legislation affects Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty like Cannock Chase, National Parks including the Peak District as well as our groundwater protection zones

This is important because without The Lords good common sense the country would be a poorer and unhappier place to live. There is more political experience in the House of Lords than than has been seen for many years. Their intervention in the Tax Credit cuts saved this government from political suicide and The Lord's veto is so rarely used that when is then it should prove a sobering notice to The Government that they are mistaken in their agenda.

We would like to show solidarity and support to the victim(s) and their family/friends who have been affected by this awful crime. Our Government need to be doing more to support women who are victims of rape & violence. We need clear and accessible support systems in place. It feels to us as if those who are wealthy are given preferential treatment. We are all humans, everyone should be treated with the same respect & conditions. By allowing Ehsan Abdulaziz to be acquitted of these charges, more women have been put at risk. Please stand up and support all victims of rape & violence and petition Southwark Council to investigate with a view to re-opening the case. More information on the details of the case can be found here: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/millionaire-ehsan-abdulaziz-who-said-he-accidentally-tripped-and-penetrated-teen-is-cleared-of-rape-a6774946.html
