Donate Indian-made COVID Vaccines for Use in IndiaIndian health facilities are overwhelmed by COVID and their government is relying on a vaccination programme to get on top of the pandemic but their vaccination stocks are very low. The UK on the other hand has already vaccinated over 50% of its adult population, has plenty of vaccines and many more on order. It would be grossly unfair to the Indian people to insist on vaccines manufactured there being exported to the UK when their need is so much greater than ours.22 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Margaret Parker

Prevent destruction from HS2It is important because for us to thrive and live, we need nature. For them to destroy natural beauty is disgusting not only that, they are severely harming animals. Nature is the most beautiful thing on this planet and it is being destroyed for a train no one will use.13 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ray Aragaki

Free Parking for NHS Staff whilst on DutyNurses are not well paid and if they end up a parking ticket which could cost around £60 easily which I think is criminal. With FREE Parking whilst on duty they would not face such steep parking Fines. Medical staff are giving us (the patients) a fantastic service which is not well rewarded but this concession of FREE paring whilst on Duty is a very small price to pay.7 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Raj Kundi

Make Cycling Helmets ManditoryI went riding yesterday, stupidly we all chose not to wear a helmet bar one lad. One of our friends took a huge fall and the site and sound made me so scared. We did the best we could till the paramedics arrived. He now has broken bones in his neck and face and hopefully nothing more serious. He came off lucky, but wearing a helmet for sure would have saved him from alot more pain and suffering.10 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Aaron Wilkinson

BRING CONJUGAL VISITS TO THE UK!!conjugal visits Are important to both the prisoner and their loved ones. Being a partner on the outside it has proven and research shows not being able to be with your Partner in a intimacy way has a great strain on both mental parties health and causes more upset and tension and frustration that you could not possibly imagine. It’s proven to be a struggle to maintain a relationship when a loved one is serving years behind bars, and not being able to have a loving relationship with their partner is a far bigger effect than you may think. conjugal visits – which are not permitted in the UK but operate successfully in much of Europe, Canada and even the Middle East. So why can’t we have these visits in the UK? There’s a lot of evidence around how having a strong relationship on the outside is a very good indicator that you won’t go on and commit other crimes, and this could lead to prisoners being more relieved and stressed and agitated. The rigid structure of prison visits undoubtedly contributes to relationship breakdown. Visits take place around a table, often with a piece of wood underneath to prohibit anything being passed between. The security search process for visitors, and any delays getting prisoners out of their cells mean that a two-hour visit can easily end up being half an hour shorter. Women with children usually bring them – so time spent alone, partner-to-partner, is a rarity. If conjugal visits was allowed I’m sure so many would jump at the chance to have that intimacy with their loved ones. They do it all over the place because it improves outcomes for prisoners, it improves outcomes for their wives – we don’t do it in Britain because we’re really prudish. Help me sign this petition into having that closeness we lack with our partners.75 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jamiiee Lee Hollier

RESPONSIBLE BREEDERS LICENSEAt the moment no such law exists. This means that irresponsible breeders, who don't care about anything except making money, are getting away with murder. The inspections that they go through are so minimal that they can obtain a license while hundreds of their dogs are dying slowly in cages that are barely inspected. This has to change. If councils say they have no money to do these inspections then make these breeders pay. £1000 is less than they make for selling one puppy. Yet this would fund a fully qualified vet to be present before a license can be granted. Please help us introduce a new law so that irresponsible dog breeders cannot continue inflicting such suffering. Make the RESPONSIBLE DOG BREEDERS LICENSE a law.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by kate roxburgh

Put Indie Sage on the BBCIndie Sage is a group of scientists who are shadowing the work of SAGE the governments scientific advisory panel. The group was formed by Sir David KIng who was the governments Chief Scientific Advisor from 2000 to 2007. Unlike SAGE whose transactions are not public (minutes are provided several weeks after they have met) they hold a weekly briefing and discussion, summarising the latest data about Covid19, and taking questions from jounalists and the public. Many of the more obvious policy errors made by the government during the pandemic were flagged up well in advance by Indie Sage and might have been avoided had the quality of public debate been better informed. The quality of the information and the debate in the briefings is extremely high; the content is interesting, and of immediate relevance for all of us, and it is therefore strange that the BBC do not carry it as a matter of course. Much of the coverage given to Covid on the BBC features discussion between presenters, jounalists, politicians and others who at best display a patchy understanding of the issues. Some remain woefully ignorant while others are wilfully distorting the science from political considerations. The BBC has as part of its charter a duty to inform and it is hard to imagine how this could be better met in the current pandemic than by giving airtime to Independent Sage.26 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Chris Oakes-Monger
