Do Not Bomb Syria -We do not know who Cameron will really be giving orders to our Air Force to bomb,.We do not know for sure that Britain is not arming IS in order to bring the Syrian Government down, in order to impose an American chosen Islamic dictatorship in Syria. We are getting conflicting reports but what we do know for sure is that we shall bomb Syrian civilians. Give peace a chance even if it means British Arms sales suffer.106 of 200 SignaturesCreated by ostarra langridge

Save the New White Bull in Nottingham from DemolitionThe New White Bull is a community asset acknowledged by Broxtowe Borough Council in its decision to list the pub as an Asset of Community Value (ACV). A national brewer formerly owned the pub but refused to sell it to the local Blue Monkey brewery, which is based just around the corner and apparently would dearly love to use the New White Bull as its brewery tap. The site was initially sold to become a supermarket and is now earmarked for demolition for housing. But it could still be a viable and thriving community pub. The New White Bull has been a public house since at least 1876 (Post Office Directory) and so has given some 140 years of service to the local community. With your help, it could give another 140 years as a public house. Please sign this petition to protect the New White Bull.1,642 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Nick Molyneux

Keep CQC registration fees reasonableThe 567% increase in fees payable to the Care Quality Commission for Primary Care registration will financially cripple many Primary Care Providers and will negatively impact upon service provision. Practices could find themselves in a position where they are closing branch surgeries in order to move down a bracket in the fee structure, i.e. pay less fees for one site rather than two. This will adversely affect the quality of care we provide, as practices will have no option but to cut services and personnel in order to meet the extortionate fee currently being suggested. Such an action would be damaging to the patient/doctor relationship and would discriminate against patients with disabilities/those unable to travel to other branch sites. This would conflict with the CQC commitment to ensure “that people receive safe, effective, compassionate and high quality care”. We respectfully request a review of the Primary Care Registration Fees structure, as we do not feel that a rise in fees of 567% is justified in any way.1,424 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Nicola Hayward

Student LoansWell I think nowadays students are targeted to pay in the system from an early age. I think that Education should be free or the loans should at least be halved than what is expecting of them today. I am really concern as I see I have my daughter who started this year and in 3/4 years time she will end up with a debt of £36000 + interests. In contract in France University fees are free what don't we follow their example. There isn't a single night when I go to bed and not thinking of my daughter. People might say it is ok but before their children end up paying only half of fee that is required for a year study. I am trouble by it as I am working mother who know the difficulties of life and how hard to have to work in order to have a good lie. I am stressed and so is my daughter. If she has decided to find a job after Six Form then she would have end up in a low paying job and struggle like her mum. I think the rich should be the one penalised and not the lower class.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Myriam Anderson

Preserve bus services in LancashireYour proposal is a 'Cost Cutting Exercise' which will, in fact, increase costs to the people of Lancashire. This is a false premise. It is more efficient, economic and environmentally friendly for Lancashire County Council to deliver this service direct to the people. If this proposal is enacted then increased costs and inconvenience will be born by the poor, disabled, young and elderly people + families with no motor car.. This proposal will lead to an 'Increase in cost to society'. IN REAL TERMS, THIS IS NOT A SAVING FOR THE COMMUNITY. Consider the following: - We are no longer a 9 to 5 - 5 day week society. - We are now moving towards a 24/7 culture which will demand a better bus service. - Problems - caused by loss of Evening, Sunday and Bank Holiday Services:- - How do workers (particularly low-paid) get to and from work? - Loss of custom to all businesses. - How do people in need, reach - Hospitals, Doctors, Rest Homes, Nursing Homes, shops, supermarkets, Banks etc. - How do people access Entertainment and Social Activities, Theatre, Cinema, Restaurants, Leisure Centres, Societies, Evening Classes & Public Houses/Clubs (Cutting out the risk of drink driving). - Health & Environment. - Buses are more environmentally friendly - The greater use of motor cars will increase pollution and congestion/parking etc. - A walk to the bus stop promotes healthy exercise.303 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Graham Dixon

Education Beyond BordersAlthough we have seen an unprecedented number of refugees partaking in the perilous journey across the Mediterranean and consequently Europe over this past year, this is not a new phenomenon and it certainly won't be going away anytime soon. We need to show consistent solidarity with those who are displaced and it should start here.450 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Amira Rady

The Daily Mail - refugees are not rats!As the refugee crisis worsens worldwide, it is increasingly important not to dehumanise the people fleeing from the kind of atrocities we in the West fear the most. With this is mind, the Daily Mail's cartoon showing droves of terrorists and rats rushing over the European border is not only callous and completely inappropriate, it risks further inciting an extremely volatile situation. The cartoon directly echoes cartoons published by the Nazis regarding Jews fleeing Germany in 1939, and fuels the fires of Islamophobia that will turn more and more previously unaffiliated people to IS. It is vital not to have the Paris attack and the European response to the refugee crisis feed into the narrative IS is trying to create. There is no global war against Muslims but IS would certainly like there to be, as they believe they would be turned to as the last resort. Every closed door to human suffering, every shut border and every attack on an innocent refugee or Muslim someone in the West makes will only increase their support. This is why the Daily Mail's cartoon is so dangerous. It dehumanises people which leads to the above events. It binds refugees, Muslims and terrorists together with absolutely no human component, no empathy for the people escaping situations we can only hope never to experience. The same people attacking Paris are the people the refugees are trying to escape from. Not all refugees are terrorists Not all Muslims are terrorists. IS does not represent Islam. All refugees are people, not rats. Nazi cartoon source: https://s.bsd.net/38degrees/main/page/-/CBY/1939-newspaper.jpg5,106 of 6,000 SignaturesCreated by Seb Higginson

Open up empty buildings to the homeless this Winter in Bury St.EdmundsTo plead to the Council to open its empty buildings to the homeless in winter. I cannot imagine sleeping rough in driving, biting winds, snow, ice and winter rain. It's inhumane. It's also inexcusable when we have so many empty buildings.1,301 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Joanne Cordock

Don't close down Bromley Adult Education- Widmore centreBecause our people will be left with not place to go, may be to doctor to take pills for depression . There are many many people who go to do courses to this centre so they're not at home alone and sad, as well for our people who did not do well at school but want to do well in life doing others jobs. For that reason they go to the centre to learn new ways to get new jobs. Adults deserve some place to go to keep the brain working " Learn for life".330 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Katy Allen
