Service will get worse, Health particularly for children will suffer. The time to stop a disaster is before it happens

The NHS has just fallen victim of an international cyber-attack but what no one is talking about is how this was the consequence of a blatant error: placing our health system in the hands of a self-oriented international corporation. All the tax payers money used to acquire thousands of Windows XP licenses were simply wasted the moment Microsoft decided to discontinue this version of their operating system. The abandonment of support via security updates by Microsoft since April 2014 is at the core of the NHS' exposure to international hackers. Now the NHS, as well as other public services providers, are rushing to update their operating systems. But we cannot let them make the same mistake again. Moreover, newer versions of Windows also require faster machines, dragging the NHS into a huge expenditure which it can clearly not afford. It is time to move to a more reliable and cheaper alternative that is perfectly suitable for the computers the NHS currently has. Linux operating system is more than appropriate for the kind of tasks required, which are mainly office and data-keeping related. There are several UK based firms offering installation and maintenance of Linux operating systems in large scale. Such that as an extra bonus of this migration, our own internal market will be boosted, creating jobs and generating domestic income.

The car parking company (UKPC) expects patients and staff to guess how much time they will need to be in the car park. If people overpay there are no refunds, if they underpay they are given large fines. There is no facility for paying by card if you don't have any cash. A fairer system would be pay as you leave. The current system exploits people when they are at their most vulnerable. It is completely unfit for purpose and should be changed.

130,000 people a year in England alone are asking for help regarding homelessness (Shelter, 2017). Homelessness is a matter of social injustice not just personal responsibility, everybody in Britain has a right to accommodation, it is not just a lack of shelter, it involves a deprivation over a number of dimensions, lack of physical and mental comfort, lack of privacy, lack of rootedness in the world and a lack of purpose in life (Somerville, 2013). Even in affordable social housing there is now an uncertainty in security, resulting in an increase in rough sleepers by 102% since 2010. The reason for homelessness is simple, not enough housing,not enough social housing, the ridiculous peak in house prices and the uncertainty of short hold tenancy in private sector housing. This needs to be stopped, we need to stop allowing housing associations and landlords putting vulnerable people out on the streets. Most of us are one wage slip away from being on the streets so help us today to change the lives of thousands of people. Sign today, save tomorrow.

It is mortifying to be judged by people when you use disabled spots if your disability is not visible. There are stories of abusive notes being left on people's cars, which is a huge knock to their self confidence, which is often already low. The change of logo would symbolism a inclusive acknowledgment of all disabilities.

People are and have died due to bed shortages and closures of Accident and Emergency departments within our NHS hospitals, The Government keep promising extra beds and staffing levels, so lets get them to prove it.

It was tried before and was a glorious failure .

Many services such as the RNLI, Air Ambulance, St John's Ambulance, Mountain Rescue England & Wales (MREW) and British Cave Rescue Council (BCRC) rely on public funding. They are registered charities and survive mainly on public donations, despite the fact that they save lives. I strongly feel that any potential service that has the ability to save lives should not have to rely on voluntary donations, and instead should be funded by the government. And this also goes to our existing emergency services who have experienced budget cuts in recent times. For example the Police, Ambulance/NHS, Fire Brigade and Coastguard. Sign this petition if you believe that the government should invest more into our emergency services in order to prevent loss of life.

It's important to allow easy acces for UK voters to vote in a way that fits around modern life. It's also important that if we open up this access that we get a clear understanding of the pledges each party are making so that voters can make a truly informed decision that aligns with people's values and principles for the UK should be run.

Paramedics provide a life saving service and currently as they are not classed as exceptional allied health care professionals this means funding is not available, even as a loan, if you have an existing degree. This also means that students who do get loans do not get travel expenses paid or accommodation like other healthcare professionals. The nation is crying out for paramedics and the funding is a huge barrier eliminating opportunities for highly skilled people who simply can't afford the £29000 tuition fees and then the extra travel and accommodation expenses. The finance is stopping people from training to provide life saving services.

To ensure those entitled get quick and necessary attention, whilst eliminating wasteage on salaries, purchases and other handouts

It affords Trump credibility that is undeserved. Further it will add to the already large,tax payer bill for security for his visit.
