Pay tax credits owed to families of disabled children28000 low income families have been underpaid in tax credits from 2011-2014. HMRC are refusing to pay monies owed. Caring for a disabled child is a full time job and often compels parents to give up work. Money and time are tight and checking the Government is paying what you are owed is one task too many. The denial of these tax credits has already caused great hardship. To receive it now would make an incredible difference to challenged lives.317 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Nick Hodge

Blame CultureAnother example of the deficiencies of the regulator essentially shifting blame and their own shortcoming on to these practitioners who very bravely risked their own lives in treating ebola patients. These wonderful nurses and human beings should be honoured and deeply respected not persecuted, its an absolute disgrace. Its about time this injustice was recognised and put right please speak up on their behalf18 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Mike Bush

A law that protects original & unique fashion designs.Fashion designs/patterns etc are always being stolen. This copyright law will allow designers in the fashion industry to protect their original and unique designs from others. This is important because so many designs/ideas are being stolen especially in the fashion industry. So many knockoffs of original designs are being created and destroys the original designs being made. It is harder for up and coming designers who are just going into the industry to be able to protect their designs especially against large retail companies who it would be impossible to fight back. I am currently wanting to go into the Fashion industry and have been creating a range of T-shirts/clothing which the designs I have drew myself, I want to be able to protect this design and allow others in a similar position to protect theirs.67 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Chelsea Fitzgerald

Wage increase for NHS workersThis is important because it is becoming increasingly difficult to recruit people into the NHS. Patients suffer due to staff shortages. Money is wasted on agency staff. Give Nurses and Doctors and carers what they deserve. We have not had a decent pay rise for years. Do you call 1% fair? Junior nurses and carers are living on the bread line. We need change now. Do not waste tax payers money on Buckingham Palace. Pay your front line services first.202 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Julie Nevin

Increase the Carer's AllowanceI care for my elderly father on a full-time basis, the living wage is £7.20 an hour, but the government only pays me an allowance of £62.10 a week for over 35 hours work. That works out as less than £2 an hour. It's really hard to survive on this paltry amount. I’ve worked all my life, but unfortunately last November I had to stop work to care for my 83-year-old father. I care for my father for over 35 hours a week. It’s extremely hard going as I have to do everything for him, his shopping, washing his clothes, giving him his medication and taking him to hospital. As a carer you end up entirely devoting your time to someone else and are all trying our hardest for a paltry - 62.10 a week. The government have introduced a 'living wage' of £7.20 an hour, I want this to be extended to carers so people are paid fairly for the care work they do.219 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Keith Leahy

Keep Children's Surgery and Anaesthesia Services at Barnsley HospitalWe feel this closure of our Children's Surgery and Anaesthesia Services at Barnsley Hospital will be detrimental to the health and well-being of our children - very ill children will have to travel long distances to other hospitals, inevitably putting them at greater risk. It will make it far more difficult for Barnsley parents to give crucial emotional support to their children in hospital. We think it is a money-saving exercise and not led by a pursuit of clinical excellence and the best interests of patients. It will have a damaging knock-on effect on other children's services at Barnsley Hospital and be one more step towards the down-grading of our local hospital.793 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Janet Williams

REFORM THE IPCC RENAMED OFFICE FOR POLICE CONDUCT OPC. www.brightonscandal.org.ukThe Home Office state the IPCC are the only way to hold the police to account. It is of concern that the IPCC are able to block a complaint relating to serious police corruption. As a result of this the police are able to act without fear of prosecution and innocent people are locked up. The IPCC blocked my complaint presented by Simon Kirby MP regarding senior police officers who lied when they stated my brother, Alex, stabbed a police officer in the chest with a very large kitchen knife. The case was dropped when it was proved the large knife to be a small mobile phone. The 'stabbed' Officer, facing near death, became a media hero and received an award. Alex served 15 months in a high security prison awaiting trial. Campaign site includes IPCC complaint, full story, evidence and letters by senior police officers.

Save T in the ParkT in the Park is Scotland’s biggest festival of music. People travel from around the world to attend. It also generates jobs, puts money into the local economy and puts Scotland on the global map for music and culture. After being forced to move from its normal site in Balado, Kinross, organisers have had to go through so much red tape that next year’s festival has been called off.5,769 of 6,000 SignaturesCreated by Daniel beggan

Respecting Old PeopleAll of us, if we are very lucky, will be old someday. Brexit, and the American Presidential Campaign have brought out the worst in many people. The comments, and accusations, made about Old People are, at the very least, offensive and, though I dislike the word, they are certainly Ageist.8 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Arthur Sansam

APPOINT NIGEL FARAGE AS BRITISH CONSUL IN ANCHORAGE, ALASKA, U.S.A.It would settle the current speculation and uncertainty at this crucial pre-Brexit time, about the role and influence the UK government would hope Mr Farage would be able to wield in an important resource-rich part of the USA, where doubtless his persuasion will secure important non-EU, non-TIPP trade deals for the UK. We also believe he would find the political climate, if not the physical, much to his liking, and he could also stand watch against the climate-change brigade in a key geographical area.8 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jan Cosgrove
