Abolish MPs' Food subsidiesAusterity; we're told it is essential. We're told we have to suffer it to save the country. We're told we're all in it together. Well, it's time the MPs showed that they believe this or are forced to pitch in even a little. At a time when food costs for ordinary citizens are soaring, when in-work citizens are relying on benefits and even food banks to feed their families, when ordinary folk are suffering pay freezes and even cuts tax-payer funded subsidies for MPs' food is an obscenity. MPs already receive a generous stipend for their efforts. They receive an excellent (many believe even more unfair and oft-abused) expenses package. Many are independently wealthy. Most hold several other highly-paid posts for which they are, frankly, only qualified by virtue of their status as an MP. In addition, they receive annual pay-rises that amount to more than many citizens earn in a year. To continue to allow them to receive hugely discounted food and drink on top of this is an obscenity which must come to an immediate end. There is not one economical or moral justification for this subsidy and it must end.40 of 100 SignaturesCreated by James Fleming

Stop Coca-Cola from Choking our OceansThis is important because plastic pollution in the ocean is killing the marine life; whether it is from animals being strangled to animals eating the plastic particles because they mistake it for food. The ecosystem is comprised of so many different moving parts and every animal plays an important role in maintaining the health of the ecosystem. We need to be held responsible for buying plastic bottles, and Coke needs to be held responsible for the plastic pollution they are creating in the ocean as well. It is a two way street! Please sign if you care about keeping the marine ecosystem and the human population healthy because what ends up in the ocean can and will end up on our plates.52 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Brooke Edell

Change our home kit!Football fans wear their colours with pride. These are turbulent times for Sunderland AFC, and the '12th man' is needed now more than ever. Since the shirt has been launched, there has been an overwhelming negative response from fans about the design. The fans deserve a shirt that they can be proud of. Change it now, before it is launched and the damage is irreversible.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Matthew Davis-Brooks

We want our recycling services to be better in Wiltshire (don't close down our recycling centres!)We love recycling and being an environmentally friendly and thoughtful to our environment. We want our recycling services to allow us to be passionate about our green space and protecting them too. But Wiltshire council do not allow us to recycle plastic other than plastic bottles from our home's. We know that more plastics can be recycled and that this can be cost effective in providing further energy Collections are every week, but recycling is collected once every 2 weeks.We want to recycle more and not have full recycling bins stopping us from recycling more. Wiltshire has two Anaerobic Digesters that are capable of handling contaminated food waste, yet food waste this being transported to Slough.* No food waste is being collected from our home's, despite these Anaerobic Digesters and the high value for money from food waste And today we found out that although Wiltshire council has a limited number of House Hold Recycling Centres that allow recycling of higher grade plastics, they've announced the recycling centre in Tisbury will be shut on 21July 2017 as " it is no longer cost effective to continue to provide this service when Wiltshire residents are now able to recycle the same items at the kerbside". Because the people of Wiltshire our so passionate about recycling we manage to achieve over 50% of waste being recycled. But the above is preventing us from being able to increase that number. Please sign to ask for: 1. recycling of plastics at kerbside 2. weekly recycling collection 3. food waste recycling 4. stop the closure of recycling centres (starting with Tisbury) 5. Wiltshire council to use AD in Westbury not Lakeside near Slough Source: *Tracy Cater of Wiltshire council "Wiltshire Council delivers 50,000 tonnes of non-recycled waste (which includes some food waste) each year to the Lakeside Energy from Waste Facility near Slough. A further 60,000 tonnes per annum is delivered to the Mechanical Biological Treatment facility in Northacre, Westbury"59 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Rachel Archer

Bring back the BrocanteThe greater business community of Glastonbury gains a badly needed increase in revenue due to the Glastonbury Brocante Fair. Local hotels, B&B's, retailers, pubs, cafes, craft makers and artists all benefit from the huge influx of visitors to the fair. The loss of this fair will have a negative financial effect on the whole Town and the Mendip region beyond. The majority of traders at the fair are from this local community. Glastonbury Town Council has a responsibility to restore this fair.7 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ian Pirrie
