• Stop Ofgem from committing murder
    Many people on low incomes will lose their lives through hypothermia, as they will not be able to afford heating. Many more older people will just try and wrap up warm instead of putting the heating on because they can't afford the gas, or electric. Many disabled people on low incomes will have to choose between heating or food. This is corporate murder. The outcome of this is a massive rise in the death rate this winter. I myself am looking at a winter of severe pain with little to no heating each day. My mother is likely to just not turn the heating on and wrap up as warm as possible as she is of the wartime generation. I fear that she will not survive the next winter. Many of her generation, and their children on low incomes (state pensions) will likely do the same as they will not be able to afford heating this winter. Please do not start up a similar petition as it will weaken this petition. Instead share this one so as many people can sign it, and it gets brought before the house of commons.

  • Against disabled parking charges
    I think it is absolutely disgusting how disabled people get treated and made to pay for parking in disabled bays in public car park. People can become disabled at any time and I think disabled people are getting a raw deal already. Disabled people need support and should not be made to pay charges for parking.

  • Testosterone for Menopause on the NHS
    It is the third hormone that depletes during menopause and some women, not all, find adding testosterone into their HRT a game changer for their symptoms. 1/10 women are giving up their careers because of debilitating symptoms and some are reported to be taking their own lives as they can’t cope with unchecked symptoms, eg having a zest for life.

  • Save the Sports Report Football Results
    The Saturday teatime football results are a national institution, giving valuable publicity to smaller clubs whose interests are once again being sacrificed, this time in favour of a Premier League commentary. They are also vital for people without easy access to a phone app, including the visually impaired.

  • Close all tax loopholes, or abolish NI and income tax for ordinary working people!
    Because people can no longer afford to live with the cost of living crisis. And with inflation set to increase to 13.5%, hard working people are going to be pushed over the edge, unable to pay their rent or mortgages!

  • Change how CMS payments calculated to make it fair for all
    This affects all paying parents and I believe all should be equal. This current method of calculations does not support all parties as equals. E.g. my daughter (4months old) is not worth as much money as the 3 that my partner is paying maintenance for in the eyes of CMS. Paying parents are then expected to live off no money as it leaves no money left. This forces many paying parents out of work and homeless. I have read some many case studies on the amount of paying parents drive to suicide due to the unreasonable demands of CMS

  • Local Housing Allowance must Match Housing Costs and Needs
    If you are privately renting and on benefits you will be able to claim Local Housing Allowance (LHA), the problem is that unless you are very lucky it won't cover your rent. Sometimes this is because where you live has been banded with another area where housing is cheaper. The fact that your area, even it is in another town, has higher rental prices won't affect how much you get. The immediate effect is that you will be paying the difference between your allowance and rent out of your other benefits. This means that even if you are disabled and have certain requirements like being on the ground floor, need wheelchair access or need friends or relatives to visit you every day, you are massively disadvantaged by this system. Just imagine if your relative needed your help everyday but couldn't get it because they couldn't afford to live locally or you couldn't find a home that meant you could live independently? If you lived in my town you would receive over £230 less than another town which is just under 4 miles away and is in fact in the same band as another town which is just over 9 miles away. This doesn't make sense does it? This is called the Broad Rental Market Area and it doesn't reflect actual housing costs. Where I live it costs more to rent than in either of these areas! I am asking that you join my campaign to have the local housing allowance banding overhauled and made to reflect local housing costs. This will help people who are already vulnerable, living on benefits and having to pay more for their rent than the current system acknowledges. I am also asking that the LHA does take into account disability needs - currently it does not. Please don't say: It will only go to property investors. Do say: Ask the goverment to make it work fairly.

  • Petition to change Mental Health Act regarding young people and armed forces
    I am begging you please help me to help get Mental health treatment for Young People. It took two and a half years to get any help for my son. I cannot bring back my baby. He also had six friends who committed suicide, the same year he died. But it's becoming a pandemic all over the UK. I thought this country cared. These people need be be properly trained, like nurses. Private companies need to be QCQ registered and so do mental health charities and crisis houses. These are not regulated by anyone. Why are patients being sent to them? And that's if they get listened to. Unregulated places are the worst for young people. I know I put in grievances due to the way they were being treated and talked about - they were made fun of by crisis teams, managers. Train these people. Save our kids. I refuse to let my son die in vain. Please I Am Begging You to Help me do this for my son and everything young person out there with mental health issues. Help please. I have worked in mental health and seen how they treat young people, or not treat them as in my son's cases. Make them train on wards like nurses have too, make them listen to young people, train them to recognise seriousness of mental health before they work with young people - they are playing with lives. Train them to know how high a dose of medication to give them, what the sedating affects of each medication they give are and how it interacts with other mental health medicines. This is killing young people. Stop the pandemic of young people's deaths, start listening and start doing. Stop judging and picking who they will and will not treat. Stop telling them to take a bath have a cup of tea- these so called experienced workers are pushing our kids over edge. Most important change mental health act regulations regarding young people and listen listen listen to me please Deaths are rising are kids are dying. Been mine, yours could be next please help.
