Bleed control kits for GlasgowGlasgow is a vibrant friendly city. We are welcoming and caring, we run toward problems and don't back away, we posses pride in abundance. However, we have as a city been let down greatly by knife crime. For decades we have faced this issue and its destructive outcomes - we have lost our sons and daughters, and there is never any going back from that. I would therefore like to see bleed control kits situated around the city much in the way defibrillators are, which can help to buy time whilst awaiting emergency help. Glasgow, we look forward to a day when knife crime no longer takes our loved ones from us, but in the mean time I hope we could achieve training and support to the public on how to effectively use bleed control kits, so that one day there are less 'what ifs'. Any one of us could be a victim of knife crime. Glasgow sadly still loses loved ones to this horrific crime which leaves a void to families that can never be filled, dreams shattered, chances taken away, love that can no longer be directed to ones who are gone .11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Josephine Allan

Maths - prime minister - read this - dyscalculia existsSTATEMENT ON PRIME MINISTER RISHI SUNAK’S ‘MATHS TO 18’ POLICY FROM DYSCALCULIA NETWORK We, at the Dyscalculia Network, welcome the Prime Minister’s focus on the importance of numeracy skills. However, we are worried by the absence of dyscalculia in discussions surrounding the stated plans to extend compulsory maths education to the age of 18. 6% of the UK population have dyscalculia. This means that around 1 million children and 2-3 million adults have a learning difference which means they cannot perform arithmetic like the rest of the population and struggle, for instance, to relate value with number, reading clocks and understanding time. An inclusive approach to maths would ensure universal screening for dyscalculia, much like what is proposed for dyslexia, and compulsory training for all maths teachers into how to support dyscalculic children and adults in their classroom. It would also emphasise not only mathematical facts and processes but mathematical thinking. Unfortunately, nothing has been mentioned by the Prime Minister or opposition parties about dyscalculia. This is deeply regretful. We believe passionately that the answer to lowering numeracy skills is not more maths but targeted and contextualised numeracy that is tangible, relevant, and accessible. Real-life numeracy that can help people in their every-day lives. This includes approaches that can improve the lives of the many people in this country that have dyscalculia. #Dyscalculia #dyscalculiaawareness #neurodivergent #mathsteacher Not everyone is good at maths. Dyscalculia should have as much input as dyslexia.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Sally Wilkin

Eradicate child poverty in the U.K.Because our system has failed, it is completely broken. 31% child poverty and a cost of living crisis in the 6th richest country in the world should be proof enough for all! The wealth gap is driving poverty and crime in our country whilst crippling our key services like the NHS. It is only through people power that we can change this so we must unite and stand together.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Steve Cox

Animal rights in the ukI strongly believe animal testing and cruelty needs to be banned. Too many poor animals suffer so we can benefit with the tiniest amount of happiness like from beauty products. These creatures don't have rights that they deserve. they are kept in tiny cages... and some people say it is better because they are breeded to do it but that just makes it worse, these animals have had no other life. I want to stop animal testing all together and the thing is we can make it happen, so why not start today? The actions have to happen3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Grace Maw

Steve Barclay must resignSteve Barclays recent comments about healthcare workers demonstrates the complete lack of understanding that those in Government have for the current working environment of the NHS. Industrial action is the last resort of those who have not beem listened to for years and his comment that we are deliberately putting patients in harms way shows utter disrespect for the NHS workforce.18 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Dom Rentle

Introduce a Public Sector National Minimum Wage (PSNW)As we end 2022, a wave of strike action from Nurses, Rail Staff, and Postal Staff has ripples across the UK. All of which are striking for changes to their current pay Currently the average wage for a; Nurse is between £25,000 and £30,000 Postal Worker is £25,000 Rail Staff is £33,000 Compared to other jobs available this is inherently very low with some of the public sector workers having to run households, pay bills and feed children2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by William Riley
