• Prevent destruction from HS2
    It 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.

  • Free Parking for NHS Staff whilst on Duty
    Nurses 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.

  • Make Cycling Helmets Manditory
    I 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.

  • 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.

  • RESPONSIBLE BREEDERS LICENSE
    At 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.

  • Put Indie Sage on the BBC
    Indie 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.

  • Make All Motorcycle Gear A Legal Requirement
    People i was close to or Know and seen In motorcycle accidents have either ended up only bruised, few broken bones, wheelchair bound or worse lose there lives because they think they will be find if something happens. If you walk away first time it luck it highly likely wont happen again the way you expect. I want try educate and protect as many people as possible from injuries or death. All of these things should be common sense when riding a motorcycle. As a motorcyclist we are more at risk of injury or death than any other vehicle and the gear is what gives us more of a chance to survive and walk away. Seeing people in shorts, tshirts, flipflops , normal trainers etc makes me and many other motorcyclist have mixed emotions when seeing this.

  • Force Exam Boards to give FULL refunds to UK schools this year (2021)
    This year UK examination boards have charged schools IN FULL (which is thousands of pounds per school). For what? Under normal circumstances schools pay the boards to a) generate examination material such as exam papers and b) pay examiners to mark and moderate said examination papers. This year, exams have been replaced with "assessments" - exams in all but name and additionally what is essentially old style coursework. These are being marked in their entirety by school staff, FOR FREE and at exceptionally late notice, thereby saving private examination boards huge amounts of money in examiners' fees. The exam boards have not even generated new exam material - merely regurgitated past exam papers. At a time when the vast majority of schools are struggling under the continued underfunding of the education system and staff are at breaking point from the demands of Covid-induced special procedures, we the undersigned feel that tax-payers money would be better spent ON SCHOOLS as opposed to lining the pockets of the boards who are charging for services either not provided at all or rendered lazily. We demand that government intervene to force exam boards to refund schools IN FULL - and not the paltry partial refunds offered thus far.

  • Travel covid tests
    The public and travel industry have suffered enough for the past year plus. Instead of hitting us with even more hardships and expenses if travelling abroad becomes a reality. These are private companies selling the tests and will no doubt reap the benefits of this demand on us. We are told the tests are to protect us all so why do we have to pay and make private companies wealthy, they should be free. We need to let the Government know we are against this unfair cost.
