Ban BPA in our food packagingScientific evidence links our routine exposure to BPA to a range of diseases, including breast cancer. Scientific studies have found that an important route of exposure to BPA is via our food and drink. BPA leaches from the packaging and into the products, especially when they are scratched or heated during cooking and in the dishwasher. As diet continues to be our main route of exposure to BPA, lets call for it to be removed from all food and drinks packaging and replaced with safer alternatives.46 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Sam Whalen

Stop CCG's limiting IVF on the NHS against NICE guidelinesPeople who are desperate to start a family are being given the choice of either going without or having to spend their life savings (or going into serious debt) to make their dreams come true. When unfit parents are allowed to produce child after child supported by the government, people who would make great parents aren't even given a chance.29 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jessica Smith

Barclaycard is putting their customers in danger of scamsSome years ago Banks and Building Societies pledged to never send emails to customers containing active links. This simple device meant that if a customer received an email with an active link in it, they would know it was a fraudulent email (potential scam, phisher or concealed virus etc) and that they should delete it to remain safe. Barclaycard have steadfastly refused to do this for their customers. This is a call to Barclaycard: If you REALLY care about your customers, then STOP SENDING CUSTOMERS EMAILS CONTAINING ACTIVE LINKS.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Dave Peddie

Provide male domestic violence/rape helpline information in men's toiletsThis is important as many people of all genders are afraid to report abuse or even discuss the subject in any manner at all. With a national campaign this would provide much needed access to services and support for people of all genders and help reduce abuse. http://www.dvmen.co.uk/ http://www.nhs.uk/Livewell/abuse/Pages/domestic-violence-against-men.aspx http://rapecrisis.org.uk/statistics.php2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Tomas Stanger

Protection from GM crops in our food chainGM crops are a monopoly. They are heavily contaminated with pesticides either as part of the genetic make up or as a result of pesticide sprays which cannot be washed off. They have an effect on pollinating bees, on the livestock that eat them eg soy for pigs and ultimately on human health either for the people that live in proximity to where the crops are sprayed and for the people that consume the animals fed on the crops or the produce itself. There is some evidence to suggest that the rise of gluten intolerance is due to pesticide residues and genetic alterations in wheat.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by liz mcallister

Peace Talks Between Russia and UKAt the moment, a nuclear war could hit the UK like a train wreck if we press on. We can't do this. I won't be able to see my younger brother grow up to be a handsome man, my aunties will never get married, we won't have basic things, this will even affect the animals. If we can't stop this now, it won't ever stop until we are extinct. At the moment, people are living in fear and panic due to this, this needs to end.8 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Chloe Smith

Keep Chesterfield in DerbyshireDEMOCRACY - Chesterfield is a key Derbyshire town& gateway to the Derbyshire Peak District. Has strong connections to neighbours NE Derbyshire and Bolsover District Councils and of course Derbyshire County Council and key player in the East Midlands. However the Leader of the CBC has promoted the town linking with Sheffiels and South Yorkshire in a major shift of allegiances in services and investment. This has/is being pushed through without full Community Engagement and the Labour controlled Council voted in favour with out Labour Councillors having a free vote. This has been a total misrepresentation of the will of the people and Parliament must step in and stop this happening. I ask all both local residents and people from the wider UK to show that Council Leaders can't just push this through without a local peoples referendum.7 of 100 SignaturesCreated by John Armstrong-Coulson

Broadcast 'I, Daniel Blake' on BBC One ASAP'I, Daniel Blake' is the most important British film of this millennium, highlighting many pressing issues such as - the absurd inhumanity of benefits bureaucracy - how revenge evictions can have disastrous knock-on effects - how the housing crisis impacts many children's educations and upbringings by forcing them to change schools - the shameful prevalence of food bank dependency, and - how some single mothers are forced into sex work through sheer desperation the film should be mandatory viewing for anyone who cares at all about the plight of their neighbour. 'Cathy Come Home' made a huge impact 50 years ago by igniting public consciousness of homelessness, ultimately leading to the creation of Crisis. it was able to have such a profound effect because it was broadcast to the nation on BBC1; it is imperative that Loach's final film be given the same platform today with over 3,500 people sleeping rough, over 73,000 homeless households living in temporary accommodation (of which more than 20,000 were forced to relocate), and more than 1.1 million three-day food supplies given out last year by Trussell Trust food banks alone, our country is truly in crisis as TV licensees, we demand that the BBC plays its part in highlighting the severity of the situation, by acquiring the rights to broadcast 'I, Daniel Blake' at the earliest possible oppportunity3,016 of 4,000 SignaturesCreated by Patrick Elliot

Stop DVLA Revealing confidential information to private companies.Data protection. Private companies or individuals should under no circumstances have the right to access any information held by a government organisation. The main purpose of this, to issue illegal fines and intimidating people by threatening to send in bailiffs if they don't pay. This practice is sailing close to the legal wind and these company's would not exist without the help of the DVLA.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by John Bissell
