Zebra crossing BuckdenA safe crossing is needed for children and adults to cross for school, nursery, shops and bus stop. Since there is no longer a post for a lollipop person the road has become difficult and dangerous to cross.175 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Vikki Brooks

Save Huntingdon WaitroseThe High Street, in the town of Huntingdon, has suffered with many shops having to close due to high rents making it difficult for shops to remain profitable. It is hoped the JLP will work to find a solution, with the present landlord, to keep this store open, so it may continue to serve the people of the Huntingdonshire District as it has done for the last 40 years.1,960 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Ste Greenall

Domestic fly tippingThe area has a litter problem just like every other area in the uk. Let's bring back the pride communities once had and stop the social decay we have on our streets. The current state of the area makes it a very undesirable place to live. We have the Quays on our doorstep and need to make some serious changes in order to not remain as the 'poor relations'14 of 100 SignaturesCreated by David Dolan

Hamilton Primary School restructuring proposalHamilton Primary school restructuring: Reject these unfair and damaging proposals. Tomorrow (Tuesday 22 February) the school's governors will meet to make a final decision on their restructuring document which was delivered to staff on the 25th January. The essence of the proposals are in effect jobs loses, changes in staff terms and conditions and pay cuts. It will mean that the school will lose two important part-time teaching posts and face the real possibility that Higher Level Teaching Assistant (unqualified teachers) will be required to deliver regular time-tabled lessons planned by class teachers to whole classes without any preparation time whatsoever. Most disgracefully the school's highly dedicated and motivated Learning Support Assistants (LSAs) will be forced to reapply for a limited number of jobs, most taking a significant cut in hours. Further savings are being sought by withdrawing pay for LSAs' 15 minute morning "break" (invariably spent supporting distressed or confused children, preparing for the next lesson, or on playground duty). These women are currently earning approximately £8.50 per hour! In addition to removing LSA cover for all class teachers in key stages 1 and 2 in the afternoons, (for example, leaving a single adult in charge of 30 5, 6 or 7 year olds all afternoon), further proposed job cuts include reducing the Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator's post to one day a week (even though there is an acknowledged increase in the need for SENCO intervention at the school), and slashing the Computer Technicians post by more than a third (despite the heads decision to invest heavily in new computer technology in the classrooms). We urge the Governors to reject these proposals for what they are: an unfair and damaging attempt to push through cuts in the schools budget at the expense of our children's educational needs and pay cuts and worsening of terms and conditions for some of our school's lowest paid staff. Please sign the petition calling on the Governors to reject these proposals. If the Governors give the proposals the go-ahead we need to urgently act to defend our staff and our children's education. - The school's staff unions should call a joint meeting to develop a strategy of oppose and stop any attempts to implement the proposals. - We should call a joint staff and parents public meeting to organise a protest at the school gate demanding that the proposals be withdrawn. Up and down the country similar attacks are taking place - attacks that unfairly attempt to balance a budget at the expense of children's education needs and staff pay and conditions - but they are being resisted by both staff and parents. In Durham teaching assistants have struck to fight off a 40% cut in pay and in Derby TA's recently descended on Derby Councils head office blowing whistles, ringing bells and waving flags and placards to overturn a proposed pay cut.336 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Jeffrey Jackson

Mental health curriculumThere are charities that are doing amazing jobs getting into schools to run mental health awareness sessions but it is not regular enough or even existent in some schools. I struggled hugely growing up in school and struggled with mental health but did not know what was wrong with me until I experienced a mental breakdown at around 15 years old. I have trained with 'Mind' as a youth wellbeing trainer and delivered mental wellbeing sessions in schools and it really is needed permanently.37 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Reece Kyriacou

Assist Japan In Solving the Fukushima CrisisThe continuous spread of radiation from the destroyed nuclear plants at Fukushima will not only affect those who live locally, but also many countries with coastlines on the Pacific Ocean and to a lesser degree the whole world. Therefore it is not just in the interests of the Japanese Government and TEPCO to solve the crisis, but the whole international community. On March 11th 2011 a tsunami knocked out the generators of the cooling systems of the Daiichi Nuclear power plant, resulting in explosions and three meltdowns of the reactor cores. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fukushima_Daiichi_nuclear_disaster14 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Chris Young

Stop shops and websites from separating toys into 'boys' and 'girls'We live in a society in which our children are being told what roles they should take up as adults in a multitude of subtle ways. The characteristics that are seen to be appropriate for boys and for girls are highlighted by dolls and frills in the 'girl's toys' while engineering, cars and dinosaurs are for boys. This kind of explicit segregation is outdated, unnecessary and damaging. If it were any other two labels (e.g. black and white) the inherent prejudice would be immediately apparent and would not be allowed by the law of modern society. I want my daughter and nieces to have the freedom to access whichever toys they are naturally interested in without having to hear them say 'that's not for me, that's only for boys.'205 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Faye Curran

MARVEL CONTEST OF CHAMPIONS UPCOMING UPDATEThe champions that we use in the game, have had set abilities for a long time, and to go ahead now and turn these abilities on their heads is a slap in the face of your loyal players. What about the players who have spent money on upgrades/sig stones/awakening gems/etc. Only to have their favourite players nerfed beyond recognition. We understand the need to make the game fairer, as was done recently with the downgrade of the Willpower mastery. Even to upgrade some of the lesser champs that are used is understandable. But to lessen the very abilities that these champions rely on, is unfair and unjust. We implore you to halt the upcoming update. Revisit these changes. This feels like a money making move. It may not seem like much to any newcomers to the game, but long standing members can see this is catastrophic. This may lead to many leaving the game. And I for one will be asking for a full refund from Google Play and Itunes for any funds that I have ever spent on upgrading my champions, if this update takes place.557 of 600 SignaturesCreated by Darren Mann

Stop the huge rises in SSSC fees for Scottish care workersThese rises of 66% for low paid support workers and 166% for social workers, when wages rises are again below inflation, are unfair and a disincentive to people joining the care sector.16,238 of 20,000 SignaturesCreated by Stephen Smellie

End litteringIf all packaging had to be collected back by the companies selling products littering would be a thing of the past. Companies would automatically reduce packaging to a minimum and make sure they can reuse or recycle. Also everyone would be rewarded by returning packaging and getting their deposit back. This would also save millions for local councils on litter picking and landfill10 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Peter Bartholomew

Save Sankey StationAccording to staff manning an information stand relating to the new station it will come at a cost of £18 million. - At least £4 million of this will be found through the local council (local residents). - Around 1 in 4 residents in established Penketh and Sankey will be disadvantaged by the new plans. - Services at Sankey station will be significantly reduced. Still not clear: - What about elderly residents who rely on Sankey Station? - What will happen to Sankey Station? Will it fall into disrepair?
