Open Deerpark Surgery in WitneyThey care less that the other surgeries in Witney are now struggling with all the extra patients they had to take on. Now its 6-8 weeks to see a GP. Meantime more and more houses are being built in the vicinity of the Deerpark surgery. This means that a MINIMUM of 10.000 people will be wanting to sign onto a surgery. The local GPs are already overstretched and find it very difficult to see all patients, I myself have complex health problems and in 6 months I have seen my GP once. I have had to attend the surgery at other times and have experienced lack of care in no follow up and terse nurses, who are also under pressure. I am 72 and don't have any quality of care as I did with Deerpark. Not once had my BP checked or my Diabetes, both these were checked regularly before. I am also at serious risk of a heart attack or stroke, I just feel this could happen and no one will even care. All patients of the surgeries in Witney need to sign the petition as this affects them greatly too.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Yvonne De Burgo

Plastic reduction in supermarketsThe oceans are already choked with plastic and by 2050 , there will be more plastic in the ocean than fish. This could mean starvation to many people and countries that depend on the ocean to survive. This is the sort of environment that breeds conflict and war, thus causing more pollution. I have 5 grandchildren who will be part of this polluted world along with billions of others. We have no need to worry about world war three, as pollution will eradicate the population before , if we don't take action now. If we target supermarkets like Asda, then we can pressurise them into making a difference.78 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Nicholas Perry

Ensure that new taxpayer funded drugs are available for all.Increasingly new drugs for many diseases and illnesses are only available at a very high cost to the NHS. This is despite the fact that many new drugs are funded wholly or partially by the taxpayer and charities research. We are calling on the Secretary of State to ensure that all new drugs where the research and development is paid for wholly or partially by the taxpayer or by charities are made available to all. Taxpayer-funded drugs 'too expensive for patients’ http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-4169324639 of 100 SignaturesCreated by David Farrelly

Life Saving Defibralators in Every Business with EmployeesImagine your Mum, Dad or family members heart stopping at work, the chances of them surviving the 7 minutes for the ambulance are 30%. If the ambulance takes 9 minutes they only have a 10% chance of surviving! These odds are terrible. If a colleague can administer a defibrillator shock within 2 minutes, their chance of survival is 80%! Anyone can use a defibrillator and it wont shock unless it is correct to do so.27 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kevin Hurlock

Basic first aid to become part of the National CurriculumLives could be saved and injuries could be lessened if everyone was aware of even the most basic of first aid. From nose bleeds to broken bones, concussion to knife injury, if people knew the 1st steps, basic ‘what to do’ in a situation whilst waiting for paramedics, further injury or trauma could be minimised.14 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ali Edge

Save Heysham Swimming Pool.Cllr Margaret Pattison, Cllr Janice Hanson, Cllr Darren Clifford and Cllr David Whittaker are very concerned with living in a seaside area such as Morecambe and Heysham that children should have a local pool to learn to swim. The pool has 54.000 visitors a year with 16 schools using the pool for swimming lessons and groups helping people to keep fit and healthy, if closed this would effect the health and safety of the people in Morecambe.1,066 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Cllr Margaret Pattison.

Referendum on the final terms on which the UK will leave the European UnionThe EU referendum represented a low point in post war UK democratic politics. Only now are problems coming to the fore that were not considered in the referendum and not debated at the time. Oeople did not know the consequences of them and Brexit impact reports are being unacceptably hidden from the people. This is unacceptable and we need a final decision when we know exactly what Brexit means and that means the full terms of an any deal.79 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Roman Haluszczak

Carbon labels on supermarket foodstuffsSimilar to Reference intakes which you see on food in the supermarket, this would allow for more consumer choice. In this instance it would allow for consumer choice when it comes to the carbon footprint of you diet. It is also really important in helping to inspire and motivate retailers to worry about the carbon footprint of their produce. For example ,if it becomes clear that UK people (when supplied with enough information) will prefer local produce over 'larger' or 'better looking' international produce which come with huge airmiles and carbon footprints - then this will motivate supermarkets to act on this. Clearly the UK has issues related to our carbon footprint and related global warming outcomes. This is compounded when linked to the issue of food waste.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Liam Pryle

Save Tylorstown Swimming PoolIt’s essential that Tylorstown and the wider community of the Rhondda Fach Keep this pool. We have seen closure after closure a loss of services and amenities. We have very poor transport links so it can be difficult to travel to other pools. The loss of the the pool will be detrimental to the children and residents of Tylorstown- other options must be considered.121 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Anna Jones

Ban pro lifers from protesting outside hospitalThis is important because if pro life protests target abortion clinics it could cause a woman who wishes to seek an abortion, to be too scared to attend appointments because of fear of judgement and condemnation. This could have disastrous consequences for her. Abortion is legal in this country therefore these protests are infringing on a woman's right to choose. This is important because these protests invade on a safe space. A space that is much needed for women21 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Gemma Paintin
