St Mary’s Church, built by local people, to serve as the ‘mother church’ of Kirkintilloch, has stood, majestically, at the very heart of the town, for over a century.  Worshippers have shared their time, talents and resources in this fine building for the greater glory of God.  St Mary’s has been a place where life’s highest and lowest moments have been marked by many thousands over the years, both within the Parish and beyond. St Mary’s beautiful building has always warmly welcomed worshippers to services and wider audiences for performances and events. Incorporating superbly crafted furniture and artworks, St Mary’s is also notable for its remarkable collection of stained and painted glass windows, gifted to the building and admired as among the most significant in any Scottish church.  Now the Church of Scotland has decided to close St Mary’s and to sell the building off. If you want to help save St Mary’s for its congregation and for future generations in Kirkintilloch, please sign this petition. Please also guide others to sign this petition and encourage as many of your family and friends as you can to sign up. Your help is very much appreciated. Thank you.

The announcement that funds are to be withdrawn from the iconic Jodrell Bank is bound to be anathema to many of us, whether scientists or not. The research carried out there has done so much over so many decades to help us understand better the workings of the universe of which we are part. Call for a reversal of this pointless policy. It won't even save much money. Everyone is affected by lack of understanding of our place in the world/solar system/cosmos in these increasingly divisive and troublesome times. Trump is trying to shut down science in the US (in the name of the 'great god dollar'), we must not allow right wing influences to do the same here in Europe.

We spent 4 to 5 months building bike jumps and trails in our local park and the council have knocked them down continuously. We kept rebuilding them time after time after time, but this time they knocked them down and said if we get enough signatures on our petition they will think about building us a bike track at our local park.

Don’t sink our ferry! The West Lynn Ferry is under threat, with an estimated £1.8m needed for essential works to make the landing stages safe and keep the ferry running. The borough council has allocated £800,000 to the ferry from the Community Infrastructure Levy – a charge paid by housebuilders when they undertake new developments. But another £1m is needed from the two local authorities – King's Lynn and West Norfolk Borough Council and Norfolk County Council. Records show there has been a ferry running between Lynn’s town centre and West Lynn since 1285. The ferry is a vital service, providing a sustainable transport link for residents and tourists and reducing the number of unnecessary car journeys. The Borough of King's Lynn and West Norfolk has demonstrated its commitment to the ferry crossing by including it in its Masterplan and it is hoped it will fund its share of the works.  This petition calls on Norfolk County Council to commit £500,000 which will be crucial in order to complete these works so the ferry can keep operating for generations to come. 

Lincolnshire Police are now rated worst Police Service in England and Wales.   Marc Jones was responsible for appointing Paul Gibson as Chief Constable of Lincolnshire, between them the force has continued to fail catastrophically. Marc Jones has been catastrophic as Police and Crime Commissioner. The performance and service of Lincolnshire Police is appalling to the people of Lincolnshire. Since 2016 Marc Jones has done nothing to improve our Police Service and has had lots of complaints lodged against him with soft touch punishments from the very weak Lincolnshire Police and Crime Panel.  We require someone who cares about our Police Service and will make sure the Chief Constable will deliver the service and performance expected by the residents of Lincolnshire and His Majesty's Inspectors of Constabularys.

EVERY time our data is harvested and sold, each citizen must be provided: • full transparency on who is selling it and to whom • notification with the option to withdraw permission, stopping the sale • payment when the data is sold • payment when the data is used • compensation when the data is stolen or misused Every day, tech companies harvest everything about us: what we click on, what we watch, where we go, who we communicate with. This data is one of the most profitable resources on Earth. Tech companies and online data brokers didn't build that resource: we did. Every data point is a reflection and result of of our own behaviour, our own attention, our own lives, and right now, we have no say in how it's used, no visibility into who's buying it, and no share of the billions it generates. Andy Burnham has scrapped the national digital ID scheme - proof that when a data grab is unpopular enough, government will back down. But the online age-verification and surveillance software that will scan every message and photo on our phones will remain fully in place, while the companies actually harvesting and monetising our personal data face no equivalent scrutiny. We're still being asked to prove who we are to platforms, while those platforms are never asked to prove what they're doing with our data, or share the profit they’re making out of us. A NEW LAW: REAL OWNERSHIP OF OUR DIGITAL FOOTPRINT. Give every citizen a statutory property right over their own data, using laws modelled on the kind of protection Denmark has already introduced to protect people's likeness from AI deepfakes. Any company that wants to use, sell, or profit from our data should need our permission, every time, and should have to pay us ever time for the use of that data. Citizens get paid. Citizens get control back. The exact mechanism that gets the money to you is a detail to be refined but not a reason to wait. A national fund paying an annual dividend is one option, as are a direct licensing fee per company, a data trust that negotiates on your behalf, or a hybrid of all three. The principle remains the same: nobody profits from your data without your permission, and nobody profits from it without you seeing some of the money. New Job Creation. This will require the creation of a new, dedicated regulator - an Ofcom for our data, which will create a new jobs and put new guardrails around an industry hugely resistant to regulation. This body must have real powers to audit companies, enforce licensing, and hold data pirates accountable when they take without asking or profit without paying. When - not if - your data is stolen - the data brokers and companies responsible for keeping it safe must be forced to financially compensate every individual whose data was compromised. Right now, when a company loses your data to hackers or unscrupulous brokers, you bear the risk, the cost and the fallout. That has to change.  Big tech companies have grown richer than most countries, using data most people didn't know they were giving away and never agreed to sell. If a new Prime Minister can find the will to scrap one unpopular data scheme, he can find the will to back this one too. Sign if you're tired of being the product.  Sign if you want to be paid like the shareholder you’ve always been. Big Tech and data brokers have turned consumers and customers into product, and UK citizens deserve something that returns us to feeling as if we are worth our government investing in us, not bleeding us dry. In a digitally-driven world that evolves at breakneck speed, we need a modicum of control and choice again, and a system of permissions and compensation that actually pays us some respects, plus a flow of passive income, may represent a few steps in that hopeful and fair direction. In addition, an entire regulatory body - and therefore thousands of jobs - will need to be created to make this idea work.    

Currently, every household who are unfortunate enough to live under the flight path all have terrible sleep (and it has been going on for few years years) due to deafening flight noise pollution, day and night. The nights are particularly unbearable as they take off and land from 11.00pm onwards right through the night and early mornings.  Sleep deprevation causes multiple health issues from Brain fog, stress, hypertention and long term causes are Dementia. Until the two bodies sit down and fully understand the impact, we will not get any resolution fit for purpose. We want the same kindness given to us as people living around Heathrow flight path.  We should not be treated like animals and be ignored. The last local MP (Conservative) had the audacity to suggest that I should go and see my GP for sleeping pills!!! Talk about insult to Injury.  This action needs to be taken NOW!

Darren and Stephen have lived at  Springfield Avenue for 55 years Darren looks after his brother who needs help with day to day tasks. The family have done this all of Stephens life.  Havebury Homes and West Suffolk council now want to split this situation up by evicting them and then separating them for housing.  I have tried to reason with Havebury and West Suffolk. They are ignoring Stephens challenges and have no permanent housing offer for either of them.  They may end up rough sleeping.  Darren tells me that he is worried. He is very concerned about what will happen to his brother.  In my view this situation is about care and Kindness and what is right. It's not right to split these brothers up. 

After spending the last 7 weeks extremely unwell with shingles, I would like to try make a difference and get vaccination age changed!  This is the second time I’ve had shingles and unfortunately this time round I was very poorly. It was on the left side of my face which cause swelling and I lost sight in my left eye for 10 days, the shingles had spread and I suffered a seizure and also had brain inflammation. This led to a 2 weeks stay in hospital with iv antivirals and pain relief. I’m no longer able to drive and struggle with pain still.  As this is a virus that lays dormant I will likely have another flare up. Now as I’m under the age of 50 I’m not entitled to the shingles vaccination, I’m only 33 and my belief is that anyone who has suffered in the way I have should be entitled to have this vaccination!  Thank you for taking the time to read my brief story and I’m hoping you can show your support.  Thanks again  Natalie Franklin. 

I am asking for your support to help save my tiny 165cm x 70cm garden outside my front door. My housing association has given me just 12 days to remove it after a single complaint. To many people it may look like a few pots and some artificial grass. To me, it is my lifeline.  I live with multiple long-term disabilities, including Classical Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, Spina Bifida, M.E., Fibromyalgia, Endometriosis, ADHD, anxiety and depression. I work just 15 hours a week for the NHS because that is all my health allows. The remaining 149 hours each week I spend mostly at home.  My bed is in my living room, only a few steps from my front door. For the last ten years, the view from that door has been an abandoned, mould-covered Peugeot that has been left to rot. The owner no longer even lives on this side of the building and parks their current car elsewhere, leaving this one untouched.  After years of looking at a decaying vehicle, I created a tiny wildlife garden. It gives me a reason to get out of bed on difficult days. Sometimes all I can manage is walking the few steps to my doorway to see what has bloomed or to watch the bees, butterflies and dragonflies that now visit every day.  It has also improved my safety.  Before I laid the artificial grass, loose gravel was regularly scattered outside my door by off-lead dogs. Because Ehlers-Danlos syndrome causes joint instability and I wear NHS-prescribed hinged knee braces, uneven gravel significantly increases my risk of falls. The plant pots have also stopped dogs fouling directly outside my entrance.  This tiny space has become part of my daily therapy. It encourages me to get fresh air, supports my mental health and gives me a sense of purpose during long periods confined to my home.  It has also meant a great deal to my mum, who is currently undergoing treatment for breast and lung cancer. Visiting my little garden after her hospital appointments has given us both moments of happiness during an incredibly difficult time.  Neighbours, NHS colleagues and visitors regularly tell me how much they enjoy seeing the flowers and wildlife. One complaint should not outweigh the positive impact this small garden has on so many people. The housing association havn't added any plants to the grounds or turned the soil in the bedding areas for 14 years.  I am not asking for special treatment.  I am asking for reasonable compassion and understanding for a disabled tenant whose tiny accessible garden improves both physical safety and mental wellbeing.  Please help me ask the housing association to allow this small garden to remain.  Sometimes something that seems insignificant to one person can mean everything to someone else. Thank you for your time & help.  Ria 

We, the undersigned, support the following: • full and faithful restoration and reinstatement of the Glasgow School of Art building, designed by Charles Rennie Mackintosh; • no erosion of Mackintosh’s original design intent.  We urge that: • Building Standards are not used as an excuse for a pastiche or a compromise collection of ‘Mackintosh best bits’; • original materials must be used to preserve authenticity; • discrete, state-of-the-art fire suppression must be incorporated throughout, at all stages.  To achieve this, the following measures will be required: • permanent ownership of the building and its site must be transferred to an independent organisation, specifically designed to deliver the reinstatement and secure the building’s long term future; • the building should be made available on a lease-back arrangement to GSA to ensure that it continues as a working art school; • the support, either directly through financing the works, or ensuring the availability of finance, of the Scottish and/or UK governments as required, which will be key to delivering this internationally important project. There has been inaction for far too long.  We urge the Scottish Government and/or the UK government to take immediate action towards an early start on this project.  The future international credibility of Glasgow and Scotland in the fields of architecture, education and culture will depend on the delivery of an accurate, faithful and honest restoration of Mackintosh’s masterpiece.  We owe it to the world to get it right.
