• Ban laser pens!
    My poor grand daughter  Gutted beyond words 😢  So proud of how brave you have been sweetheart. Nanas girl. Love you so bloody much. My heart is broken 💔 😢  DO NOT LET YOUR CHILDREN USE LAZERS!!  Another child was bought a lazer light as a birthday gift and took it to school. And it was accidently shone into Lily's right eye.  This is the state of her right eye now. The macula has hemorrhaged and it also has a lazer burn which has left scarring.  This scarring, the burn and the bleed has left her permanently without any focal or centre vision in the right eye. She only has a small amount of peripheral vision left in her right eye. She may as well be blind in that eye as she cant see out of it!  We've spend the last 5 days in and out of hospitals. She has had multiple scans, drops, tests the lot. 5 different consultants all coming to the same conclusion. Her eyesight can not be saved.  The macula is a small, round area at the center of the retina in the back of the eye that controls central vision, color vision, and fine detail. It's made up of many photoreceptor cells that detect light and send signals to the brain, which interprets them as images.  This could have all been avoided if a child was not given a lazer light as a toy.  These are so dangerous and I'm only thankful that it's only one eye and not both or my beautiful girl would be completely blind!  Please, never let your child have or use/play with a lazer light. You could potentially be saving someone's eyesight.  It's too late for Lily's vision but it's not too late to save someone else's.  I'm so incredibly proud of how lily has handled everything thrown at her this past week. She is such an inspiring young lady.  Me and Ryan Harrison are so proud of you Lily-May ! (Mum and dad)

  • Scrap Compulsory PE during KS4
    As students move up into KS4, there will be far more on their minds than spending 4% of their lesson time per week doing sports. While Year 10 students can be using this time to prepare for important assessments or even their mock exams, Year 11 students can be using this time to revise for their official exams which will completely shape their future. Considering there are approximately 39 weeks in each UK school year, 2 hours of PE per week would add up to 78 hours of wasted time in school. 78 hours can make a massive difference to academic achievement and boost possibilities for students.

  • Wombourne Refuse Tip
    People are having to travel far greater distances now this tip has closed. It is possible that this closure will also cause an increase in fly tipping. Neighbours often helped elderly neighbours by taking their refuse to the tip for them, because of the greater distances this is not happening causing rubbish to accumulate or causing pensioners to incur extra costs by hiring skips or specialist refuse companies to collect their rubbish.

  • Remuneration for British armed forces
    The current compensation is inadequate and embarrassing when we take into account their duty’s. It's not only morally right, but increasing the pay will also inevitably foster more interest in enlisting in our armed forces, which has seen a significant decline over the years. Our national security should be a priority and financially supporting those who protect us is a critical part of that commitment. it's time we rectify this injustice.  By signing this petition, you help ensure our armed forces are justly rewarded for their invaluable contribution to our nation's security.

  • 6 days mandatory sick pay allowance
    This is important because people can not afford to have their wages deducted due to illness and people should not be forced to work when they are ill because they won’t be able to pay their bills. The stress and impact this has on someone’s mental health is unacceptable. Companies should have a duty of care to look after their employees.

  • Please stop politicians taking any gifts "not just clothing"
    No gifts being permitted would promote and support accountability and more importantly transparency regarding who may have influence.  Those we elect in future, or those in a position to donate such gifts...

  • Uphold copyright protection from Generative AI training!
    I am a freelance writer in the tabletop gaming industry, and I am very concerned about the new proposed changes to AI copyright law. Generative artificial intelligence has already cost my industry, and many other creative industries, a great deal due to the unprecedented need for new laws governing these models and the ability of tech companies to bypass them due to ambiguities in legislative wording.  I have personally lost hundreds of pounds in monthly income as a direct result of generative ai models over the last 2 years, and these models are trained on creative works which they have no ethical right to use.     I am asking you to stand up and speak out against relaxing laws on tech companies being able to train their models on copyrighted works (as is being suggested), as this would be disastrous for every creative industry, and only work to cement the dominance of these tech conglomerates in global society at the expense of one of the most uniquely human endeavours in existence; the creation of art.

  • Reduce pesticide residues in our food
    It is impossible to quantify the risk from a cocktail of chemicals in our diet. In this situation we should adopt a precautionary approach and minimise them as far as practical. EU standards are a sensible aim. We should not be exporting our pesticide footprint or importing food with more pesticides than we recently deemed safe.
