Nigel Farage is claiming this as a move for the people against the establishment. The people who sign this give an overwhelming mandate that they do not approve of any by-election until all the facts are known and people can make a clear decision.   If his resignation is blocked, it will be because of the will of the people signing this petition and can not be spun as an ‘establishment’ tactic. 

I am a professional chauffeur covering up to 1500 miles weekly. Time and again I see drivers of trucks and cars ignoring red cross lanes on motorways. I am outraged that so many road workers are killed or injured whilst supposedly being protected by traffic signs which are being ignored. I NEVER see them stopped by police. They seem to know when cameras are not there. It is a daily occurrence for me to see this. How many more lives are to be lost. 

After taking Mounjaro, I experienced serious damage to my pancreas and gallbladder. My experience has highlighted the need for much closer monitoring of patients using this medication so that any serious complications can be identified and treated as early as possible. While Mounjaro has helped many people manage obesity and type 2 diabetes, patient safety must remain the highest priority. Patients deserve regular follow-up throughout their treatment—not simply a prescription with limited ongoing monitoring. I call for: • Mandatory clinical reviews every 2–3 months while patients remain on Mounjaro. • Routine blood tests to monitor pancreatic, liver and kidney function, and other appropriate markers. • Consideration of imaging, including MRI or other scans, when clinically appropriate or where patients develop symptoms or abnormal test results. • Comprehensive recording and investigation of all suspected serious adverse reactions. • Independent long-term research into the effects of Mounjaro on vital organs, including the pancreas, gallbladder, liver and kidneys. • Greater transparency from Eli Lilly regarding post-marketing safety data and emerging evidence. No patient should have to discover serious complications only after permanent damage has occurred. Better monitoring, better research and better aftercare could save lives, prevent irreversible harm and ensure that patients receive the safest possible care while benefiting from this medication. I ask Eli Lilly, healthcare regulators and healthcare providers to act now by strengthening the long-term safety monitoring of everyone prescribed Mounjaro. A year ago, I was overweight, but I was healthy. Like so many women with PCOS, I had struggled with my weight for years. Nothing seemed to work long-term until I was prescribed Mounjaro. It felt like the answer to all my problems. The weight came off, and even after stopping, I’ve managed to maintain it apart from the odd few pounds here and there. But what I wasn’t prepared for were the potential serious health complications. Since Saturday, I’ve been in hospital practically fighting for my life. I’ve been diagnosed with pancreatitis, cholecystitis, jaundice and gallstones. The pain has been indescribable, genuinely the worst pain I’ve ever experienced, and something I wouldn’t wish on anyone. On Sunday, things became even more serious. My blood pressure crashed, I was rushed to resus, and my family were told to let the doctors do everything they could because they didn’t know what the next 24 hours would bring. Hearing that at 24 years old is something I never imagined. I now need to have my gallbladder removed because it is completely full of gallstones. When I leave hospital, my life will look very different. I’ll have strict dietary changes to follow for the rest of my life to reduce the risk of chronic pancreatitis and help my body cope without a gallbladder. I’ve also been advised that I should never drink alcohol again. I’m not writing this to scare anyone or tell people what decisions they should make. Mounjaro has helped many people, and for me it worked exactly as intended when it came to weight loss. I’m sharing my story because I wish I had fully understood that, although rare, serious complications can happen. I answered every medical question honestly, it was prescribed appropriately, and I still ended up here. If I had known that a year after my first injection I’d be lying in a hospital bed, facing surgery and lifelong lifestyle changes, I would have made a very different decision. A year ago, I was healthy—just overweight. Today, I’m a healthy weight, but I’m facing the loss of an organ and a completely different future. Please, if you’re considering Mounjaro or any weightloss medication, make sure you understand not only the benefits but also the potential risks.  Ask questions. Read the information. Make the decision with your eyes open. I wouldn’t wish this on anyone.

Thirteen MILLION of us are still locked out of dental care. After two years of ministers promising to finally fix NHS dentistry, shocking new data just revealed that almost nothing has changed. That is simply not good enough. Kids in A&E screaming in agony from tooth pain? Not good enough. Pensioners pulling out their own teeth because they can’t afford to go private? Not good enough. Half-baked tweaks to the system but no money to back it up? Not good enough. Enough is enough. Incoming PM Andy Burnham actually started trying to fix NHS dentistry back when he was Health Secretary. Now he’s got a huge chance to pick back up where he left off. Think he should make it a priority? Sign the petition now. 

I recently bought an audiobook that turned out to be AI generated. It was terribly written and the information was utter nonsense. The listing for the book didn’t indicate that it was AI. I suspected it was from the quality, and searching online eventually confirmed it. I managed to get a refund but it wasn’t easy because the book hadn’t violated any of the seller’s rules. This would have been avoided if the book was labelled as AI generated. This situation is unfortunately getting more common. Mandated labelling would give people the ability to choose which materials to consume and what to spend their money on. It would make it harder for scam “creators” to make money by pretending to be genuine, and allow people to make informed decisions about who and what to support. It could also protect the value and status of artists and creatives.

Children can’t legally gamble - so why are they flooded by gambling ads every time they watch football?    From shirt sponsorship and pitch-side hoardings to stadium branding and in-game promotions, gambling companies have taken over the game. Loopholes in the current system mean fans are still exposed to relentless gambling ads during live matches.    And it’s getting worse. More and more gambling messages are being shown, while new commercial deals - like FIFA’s partnerships to allow gambling operators to livestream World Cup games and show gambling ads in stadiums - are embedding gambling even deeper into the game. Football should bring communities together, not normalise gambling for the next generation. With the World Cup set to introduce millions of young fans to football, now is the moment to stop gambling ads dominating the game. That’s why we’re calling on the Government to kick gambling ads out of football for good.  

In this world full of human tragedy, programmes like Winterwatch on the BBC are a breath of fresh air. They're cosy, uplifting, and a great way for all - especially children - to learn about nature.  The UK is one of the most nature-depleted countries in the whole world. This is a vital time to showcase and educate people about nature - not to axe programmes that do!  The BBC has always played a huge role in nature education - from David Attenborough's programmes, to Winterwatch. When our natural world needs lifting up, and our native wildlife animals need saving, we want to be able to count on our BBC to be part of the solution, not the problem. 

Brought in during COVID we've lived with this positive system for the past 5-6 years. It simple and quick to do online, avoids overcrowding at the sites. Stops long delays and previous queuing on roads making it dangerous. Every time I've wanted to go I've got same day appointments, whether in a car or with a trailer. Skips are accessible and there is seemingly less pressure on staff who have had it hard with continuous cuts. I urge cabinet to avoid this publicity stunt which this could be seen as and keep the current system at our recycling centres. Please!

Swaffham Prior is the only built up area along the length of the B1102 from Stow cum Quy to Mildenhall where a 40mph limit remains. The road is heavily congested, especially at peak commuter periods, many vehicles take little notice of the 40mph speed limit leading to speeds regularly exceeding 50mph. School children wait for bus transport to the Village College, parents walk their children to school along the footpaths. We recognise the work the Swaffham Prior Parish Council have done over the years to try and secure a change, but given that no change has been achieved and the police make no attempt whatsoever to enforce the current speed limit, we demand swift action for change.   Lode achieved a speed reduction to 30mph, Stow cum Quy, a reduction to 20mph, the Swaffhams Greenway plan involves reducing the speed limit between Lode and Swaffham Bulbeck to 40mph, so it is clearly possible to achieve the required outcome, even if this requires a “buffer” zone of 40mph to 30mph at the entrances to the village.   The risks of pedestrians being hurt are real. A recent accident showered the footpath with car parts and wooden bollards which form part of existing traffic calming measures were hurled along the pavement. Had someone been walking along the pavement, they would have been maimed or killed by the flying debris. Many people have had their pets knocked down and killed, it is a matter of time before a human is seriously injured or worse still, killed.     We demand action now to reduce the speed limit to 30mph and then to enforce that new speed limit so that drivers stick to it for the safety of our community.

Better Buses for Greater Manchester was right to campaign for the end of the failed deregulated bus market in our region. Franchising, introduced under Andy Burnham, means that only bus companies with a contact from the Mayor can run services. As a result, strategic network planning is now under local authority control — which is why services can be integrated with one brand, ticket, and timetable.  But private companies still call the shots on day-to-day essential decisions — like wages, staff T&Cs, and much else. And they have a guaranteed profit margin — millions a year that could be going back into services and keeping fares down. In London, Sadiq Khan is setting up a publicly owned bus company to take over contacts for TfL buses. The government also promised to deliver the biggest wave of insourcing in a generation and lifted the ban on new publicly owned bus companies. The next Mayor must set up a publicly owned bus company — like the award winning firms in Nottingham, Reading, Edinburgh, Blackpool and beyond. Buses must be truly run by and for us.

The Serpentine path in Hyde park is enjoyed by pedestrians, tourtists, and visitors to the festivals and events. It is also an important hub for the London roller skate community, who have come out to their express creativity, community and the joy of skating, every weekend for over 50 years. This is an important grassroots community, of all ages and backgrounds, who are famous worldwide and delight tourists with their tricks and roller dancing.  Lime bikes, Forest Bikes and other rented electric e-bikes are currently completely unregulated. They can be ridden by anyone regardless of cycling ability - they go at speeds of 15 miles an hour (much faster than regular bikes), can be hard to control and are extremely heavy. When ridden along pathways, particularly in London's parks, they are a danger to both skaters and pedestrians. E-bike riders often speed down the Serpentine path in huge groups, with no regard for pedestrians or skaters, and have become a menace. Several skaters have recently been directly crashed into by these e-bikes and injured. Whilst cycling is an important part of London's transport network, many of these e-bike riders clearly do not have any experience riding a bike, are intoxicated, or riding carelessly or too fast.  From a commuting/transport perspective, there is also no need for e-bikes to use this path, as there is a cycleway directly parallel to the path along South Carriage Drive. This is a road clearly designated for bikes and much safer than them riding along the Serpentine where children and families are walking.  We call on Westminster Council / London Royal Parks to ban these dangerous e-bikes along the Serpentine path, making it a 'red zone' so they can't be ridden or their speed is restricted - and restoring the path as a place of enjoyment and community where pedestrians can walk in safety and skaters can continue to enjoy the community and health benefits of skating without fear of being injured. Many London parks restrict the use of e-bikes along pathways and we urge Westminster Council / Royal Parks to do the same.

My child struggles with sensory but she isnt the only that struggles with week.  Tights have always been a struggle and yet i pushed for her to fit into the struggle to meet school policy which is tights to be worn at a minimum of 40+ denier but in extreme heat how can this be fair?  I'm very aware most young girls pull skirts up and was happy to enforce this struggle but why cant they wear p.e kits when it comes to extreme weather conditions.  I find it ludicris children are being refused to wear shorts in such weathers especially when parents only option is to keep them home an expect fines, this leads me to believe there must be reasons? But what is the reason?  They are not working with tarmac or fire pits in school and nylon tights would not save skin even if this was the case. What can possibly be the reason to it? Honestly I find it a worry there has been no explaniation behind it other than it's policy. I am sure I'm not the only parent given the local chats this week.  No child can be expected to focus or store information in such extreme weather conditions so again i ask what is the reason behind this?
