Save North street and Vale street surgeryIf the surgeries close the patients would be dispersed to further away location such as Long Lee and as far as Cottengley 5 to 6 miles away. The transport for unwell elderly patients would be extremely difficult and the waiting list for appointments would be extremely long to these surgeries due to the fact that they would be taking on thousands of patients from north street surgery and vale street surgery. The health and well being for the elderly and people with transport issues is not being taken in to consideration by the NHS. People with communication and transport problems will be be most affected because north street surgery and vale street surgery have a diverse staff to deal with people of all languages and back grounds. Between 20 to 30 people from these surgeries would lose there jobs hard working people trying to help and serve there communities .496 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Usman Hussain

INTRODUCE WORTHWHILE CONTROL OF LOBBYISTSThe attempt to control lobbyists enacted under the Cameron government was a travesty of the reforms proposed by a Select Committee of the Commons. Instead of restraining the activities of lobbyists on behalf of major companies, the new law only restricted the activities of firms which offered their services to commercial enterprises while simultaneously placing heavy burdens on charities, trade unions and NGOs.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by GEOFFREY STEVENS

Urgent Medical Care Defibrillators For PrisonsI have personal experience of this unfortunately as my own father died prematurely whilst in HMP Brixton Prison of a Myocardinal Infraction ie a heart attack. He was on beta-blockers at the time. I still have his watch stuck on the exact time. I think that if every Prison had a defibrillator onsite and the staff are trained in Urgent Medical Care then many incidents could be prevented or at least alleviated whilst waiting for Emergency Care Providers. Especially when they may have a condition which could affect their Mental or Physical Health or both. We are all human and even if we are sent to Prison don't you think we owe it to the prisoners to take care of them too. It is a Human Right's Issue and it should happen. There are so many Prisoners and Overcrowding is a Huge Issue. I Urge you to join this campaign thank you for reading this issue2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Luciana Gibbins-Lanteri

Stop no win no fee solicitors.This is part of the compensation culture we have inherited from the USA and is making Health and Safety so restrictive that business especially in the construction industry is hardly able to function. It has got so ridiculous that children cannot even run around in the playground and we wonder why 50% of them are obese.10 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Brian Rides

Fight the DWP on removal of disability paymentsPeople like Sarah Stones of St Neots Cambs who is 48 and has cerebral palsy. Sarah runs her own company motivating people. Her crime was writing the wrong date in her diary and missing her assessment. For this her benefits and car were forfeited. This, in effect, would have stopped her working had it not been for the kindness of her family and friends. She is not alone and the DWP is fully aware of what is happening yet upholds the decisions of Capita. There is a total lack of empathy and compassion from them. I met Sarah when I put up a washing line and mended her gate. She is an amazing lady and i feel so helpless that this goverment is treating severely disabled people, who can and want to work, by taking away their ability to do so.85 of 100 SignaturesCreated by TERENCE COOPER

Free school meals for all pupils in compulsory education in ScotlandWriting as a recently retired Home Economics teacher I strongly believe that we must take urgent action to improve the health of our young people. By providing a free school meal to all pupils will undoubtedly make a huge difference. It now needs to be part of their education. Giving them a taste of real food and encourage healthy eating lifestyle for life. We (teachers) have failed their parents who all too often rely on take aways rather than cooking for family meals. From experience after lunch classes were always a challenge where pupils were lunching on Red Bull and chips. No concentration and little learning took place. At present a free school meal is provided to all pupils in Primary 1, 2,and 3. This has been a great success. It now needs to extended to all. All costs involved could easily be covered by taxing high sugar and energy drinks and sweets. Urgent action is needed if we care about Scotlands future.9 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Rose Baird

Stop Donald Trump from entering ScotlandIt is important that we ban Trump from entering Scotland as we do not wish him to promote his views here and to incite violence and hatred among people in Scotland. We do not have to show respect for a President who behaves in such a manner as Donald Trump who has promoted himself through a campaign of hate. Banning Trump from entering will be Scotland's way of rejecting his views of islamophobia, sexism, racial hatred and violence. This is important because Scotland is a multicultural country where we want to promote equality and justice for all. Please sign the petition. Thank you.104 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Naledi Herman

Young Offenders provision in the HighlandsYoung offenders, both on remand and serving a sentence, are aged 16 to 21. Keeping contact with family and friends is a vital part of rehabilitation into the community. However, for Y O s from the Highlands and Islands the journey to Polmont for their visitors is a long and costly journey and for some families may even be completely unaffordable. There is visiting time every day at Polmont, but if it is not equally accessible to Y O s from both the Central Belt and the Highlands and Islands, this does not seem to me to be fair and equal treatment under the law.69 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Catherine Salter

Stand up to Trump's IslamophobiaTo challenge the anti-Muslim rhetoric and re-inforce all British citizens' rights to travel freely. To highlight that Trump's stated desire to exclude members of one particular religion from entering the US is in contradiction of the First Amendment of the US Constitution.6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Bryan Streeter
