• Conservation programs of Compensation & Grants for the Conservation Schemes Elephants
    Gabon is one of the remaining bastions of forest elephant with 85% of the forest elephant population . Poor financial compensation and grants support are a significant cause of poverty and migration in cities from rural areas. In turn this leads to native people being unable to sustain their way of life and keep their families together Villagers are abandoning theirs traditions, their cultures and their way of life. This is a huge loss for native Gabonese.

  • Save Horwich's bus service!
    The 575 provides a vital service, connecting Horwich to Bolton Town Centre and to the rest of Chorley New Road. Between Diamond Bus and Arriva Bus, the service currently runs 6 times an hour, giving locals plenty of opportunity to get to and from Bolton. With the removal of the Diamond service, the frequency halves to once every 20 minutes. Diamond Bus were the only service running along Lever Park Avenue, connecting the far end of Horwich to the rest of Horwich and Bolton. With the removal of the Diamond Bus service, there will be no bus connecting the Lever Park area of Horwich to Bolton. The removal of this service will leave countless Horwich residents isolated and unable to get to where they need to go.

  • Police body cams switched on by law
    There have recently been a high number of accusations resulting in convictions of police brutality, racism, assault, battery, rape and sexual assaults. Help us all feel safer by knowing all interactions with any PC is recorded at any time and anywhere and evidence is recorded and handed in to a nominated officer at return to stations who can ensure all evidence is protected. This would help to protect us all from those who abuse their positions and use it to harm, manipulate and cause fear. A switched on bodycam can and will record everything from the minute an officer leaves the station until their return and not switched off at any point. Help protect us from those who choose to use their positions to do harm. Instead every interaction will be heard and recorded and will stand in a court of law and help protect us from those who choose to abuse their positions.

  • Bring back Britain's rainforests in your newly inherited estate!
    When you became the Duke of Cornwall, you inherited a vast landed estate. Sadly, much of this land contains damaged habitats and is lacking the rich biodiversity it could have. A huge amount of Duchy land falls within Britain’s ecologically significant ‘rainforest zone’. The lost potential of this land can be seen in the awe-inspiring fragments at Wistman’s Wood and Black Tor Copse (areas festooned with lichens and soaked in mythology). We urge you to allow these fragments to regenerate and spread. Rewilding our rainforests - letting trees regrow and reintroducing lost species - is also a brilliant way to fight the climate crisis because this land absorbs and stores carbon from our atmosphere, helping to lower global temperatures. As well as NGOs like the Wildlife Trust, farmers, landowners, and communities across Devon are already starting work to restore temperate rainforests and, around the country, millions of nature loving Brits are doing whatever they can for wildlife. Will you join them and help bring back Britain's rainforests? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wild Card is a grassroots campaign calling on the UK's biggest landowners to rewild.

  • Give Leeds the levelling up funding the city deserves!
    The people of Leeds have been let down yet again by this government, who have failed to award any of the £2 billion Levelling Up Funding to the city - the second biggest local authority area in the country. This is not good enough, and must be reconsidered urgently. Leeds City Council submitted six excellent bids to Round 2 of the government’s Levelling Up Fund, which covered every constituency in Leeds not already in receipt of government funds. These bids covered some of the most deprived communities in the country and they have all been rejected. The bids focused on breathing new life into parks, transport infrastructure and local economies right across the council area through inner city areas and suburbs to former mining villages. The decision to not allocate a penny to Leeds sends a message to the people of our city that that the Government do not think we are worth anything. We demand that the government stops overlooking Leeds, and comes back with a new offer, giving Leeds its fair share from this £2billion pot.

  • Fix the housing crisis!
    The UK right now is in the midsts of a huge housing crisis. Many people are struggling with rising rent and cannot afford to buy. Housing being built is currently not keeping up with demand and one of the reasons for this is the Government going back on a promise they made to fix the crisis. When elected, the current Government promised they would have a set target to help tackle the problem to help people get onto the property ladder but those targets have now been scrapped. The impact of this decision is now becoming increasingly clear as the housing crisis does not seem to be slowing down. We need to show the Government that not tackling the housing crisis and building more housing is unpopular

  • Grieving the dead and loved ones our way!
    This is important to all the familys, friends and loved ones who have people laid to rest here. We are now fighting to get this decision over turned, as there are many big family's and friends who go to see loved ones at this Cemetery. Sadly 2 pots just wouldn't be enough, again, people will be left heartbroken that they can not lay anything to show their love, respect and loved ones grave/resting place. Also as may will know, with weather conditions, flowers it just wouldn't last very long at all, so you can understand why people want to place more sentimental gifts down. To make these graves beautiful and stand out, especially the childrens graves, family's to lay there favorite toys/items, to show the resting place is a child's place, as children don't understand the meaning of flower's. Let alone weather conditions making them not last, but wild rabbit's eating them. We do understand not wanting items on the grass, or where maintance work needs to take place, but we could agree items can be placed near the head stones and memorial benches, as long as not out the borders of the loved ones grave/resting place itself. However, we want Stychbrook Cemetery to agree to allow family's, friend's, also loved ones to consider special events such as birthday's and Christmas so family's, friends, also loved ones can put balloons, mini Christmas trees, wreaths and other gifts to celebrate these special events, upon agreement they are removed after the season has passed. We also want Stychbrook Cemetery to consider letting the childrens graves stand out with lights, toys, beautiful decorations to show a young person was laid to rest here, and are loved but also missed dearly let there favorite items stay, to show who they was and what they loved. We also would like Stychbrook Cemetery to agree to close the gates/lock them, at a reasonable time, to prevent the sentermental items/gifts being stolen, plus graves being vandilised, but also prevents stolen items being dumped in the woodland area causing harm to nature but also wild life, this will also prevent causing anymore distress and heartbreak to the people who's items was taken and damaged. Why we have asked them to consider alot, we believe the parking should also be reconsidered due to the fact elderly, people with disabilitys including hidden ones who struggle to walk so far, as it is a bumpy and long walk to the graves towards the bottom, as long as cars don't drive on the grass, or cause damage to anything on site, this should be allowed. We are strongly reaching out to the community, government and more, to help over turn this devestating decision, this beautiful Cemetery has come to. All we are asking, is for a moment of your time to please sign and share, to help us stop this change, but also to allow family's friend's and loved ones to continue to place sentimental items. Please don't let this Cemetery turn in to a bare faced place of rest where people want to be able to pay respects, but also spend there time in there own ways with there gifts/items. So let's keep this Cemetery bright, open and beautiful for all. Since after the agreement of the owners at the cemetery placed these actions against the communitys of Staffordshire/west midlands, it not just caused such devistation to the people who brought plots for there loved ones that gained the exclusive rights documentations to have the rights to place there sentimental items such as flowers, and personal items to that person, it may cause spirituality to become distressed due to the actions of the owners itself. Thank you for your Support!

  • Introduce a new law to make spiking illegal!
    As a person who has had their drink spiked in the past, I would have felt a lot more comfortable reporting the incident if I knew there was a specific law protecting me. The Government's failure to introduce a new law lets women down. Please sign my petition to put pressure on the Home Office to reverse their decision!

  • Change Graveyard decisions
    It's important to all the friends, family and loved ones who are buried on the cemetary, to be able to put more than just 2 pots of flowers down, due to the fact there are much larger families out there in the communities and friends, and 2 pots near a headstone would clearly not be enough space for all the families/ loved ones, to make their true respects to their loved ones who passed away. Flowers die off quite quickly due to weather conditions, and people find more sentimental items to gift on their loved ones graves to pay their dues and respects, which will last much longer and make graves look more tidier and more approachable, showing that their loved ones are been thought about each day. We can understand and respect the decision of the cemetary of not wanting items on the grass areas, due to the maintenance having the need to do their work round the graves, to make the cemetary look a nice and welcoming place to go too, so we believe they should over turn their decision and agree families and friends/ loved ones, of the loved ones who are buried within the cemetary, to put items on the graves that truly would be sentimental pieces, that's part of the family and the loved ones itself passed away. This includes statues/ ornaments/ lights/ photos/ children's toys on young people's graves. We believe upon agreement upon this being allowed, must be placed near head stones/ memorial benches where its concrete and on their graves as a whole, not leaving the outside boundaries, and that on special occasions items such as birthdays and Christmas such as balloons/ small Christmas trees/ lights/ fake candles/ wreathes, should be placed upon the graves, on agreement they should be removed when the season finishes. We believe they should especially think about the decision, with children that are buried also, as families like to show that their loved child is buried in that specific plot of land. They should be able to decorate with children's items and fairy lights, due to making this show a precious child was laid to rest in that place, and when a child passes away so young, more sentimental items such as a favourite toy, should be placed upon those graves instead of flowers which a sad passing wouldn't of known what they were for. We also believe that the gates to Stychbrook Cemetary should be closed and locked at a responsible time, to make sure no items that all the items that are laid on the graves are stolen and dumped in the woodland areas surrounded the cemetary, as this will prevent heart breaking upsets to the families and loved ones to the very people of the items that were stolen previous, and will stop harm coming to the wildlife when items are dumped in the woodlands area. We hope that people/ our communities will be able to support this petition and sign, to get the cemetary to over turn their heart breaking decision, which have literally destroyed families/ loved ones hearts and also those who are clearly buried on the land to Stychbrook cemetary who clearly loved the company, love, respect of everything the families and loved ones have done, within making the cemetary look as nice as it was, until the people of the cemetary made the decision to strip the cemetary appart just as the communities hearts.

  • Suella Braverman: Don’t ditch key Windrush commitments
    The Windrush scandal continues to cause pain and suffering to Black people across the country. As we approach the 75th anniversary of the arrival of the Empire Windrush, which should be a time of celebration, Black people are again facing a hostile government. Reports that ministers’ promises to implement key recommendations from the Independent review into the scandal look set to be ditched, will come as yet another devastating blow to the Windrush generation. As Home Secretary, you have the opportunity to show that the Government is serious about righting past wrongs by honouring the recommendations set out in the independent Williams report. To do anything less sends out the clear message that the suffering of the Windrush generation was in vain and that the hostile environment still exists.
