• We call for a Government of National Unity
    With brexit looming the only way that the UK can have a strong negotiating position is from working together. We must stand strong with Europe for European values against the Trump government. Germany works very successfully with a coalition of left and right.

  • In the event of a hung Parliament following the 2017 General Election
    1. Our existing democratic system is no longer fit for purpose. It is too centralised, serves political parties before people, stifles talent, innovation and new thinking, is unresponsive to the needs of local communities and promotes short-termism. 2 At a time of increasing turbulence in world affairs, the nation is clearly divided in the face of the complex issues posed by the inconclusive EU referendum which excluded the voices of young people whose future was being decide 3 No single political party is able to look after the interests of the nation as a whole Recent elections and referendums have pulled the nation apart and previous governments have failed to invest in the regions and protect opportunties for non-partisan pubic discourse – either in the media or in the political process - causing uncertainty amongst the electorate in the face of complex decisions about the direction of our country Note that whist Parliament is dissolved, it is not possible to petition the government and there is precedent under clause 61 of Magna Carta to petition the Queen

  • Trump not welcome
    Trump has shown himself to be unworthy to hold the position of President of the US through many actions and comments and most recently by his deliberately misleading reference to comments made by Sadiq Khan relating to security matters in London. If Trump were to come there will be huge public discontent throughout the UK . There would be an unjustifiable security cost to protect him at a time when all our security resources should be concentrated on the high level of risk of more terrorist activity against the general population.

  • Theresa May: Review Trump's UK state visit invitation
    Donald Trump's ill-judged, offensive and divisive response to 3/5/17, and his internet harassment of London's democratically elected Mayor, disqualify him for the honour of a state visit. This petition calls on Theresa May to invite the elected representatives of the UK Government to review its offer of a state visit to Donald Trump, in response to the offence that Trump's comments on 3/5/17 have caused to huge numbers of people within the communities of London and the UK; most importantly, those directly affected by the terrorist attacks.

  • Stop the demolition of Crawley Town Hall
    • Crawley Town Hall is a significant twentieth-century building worthy of preservation; it is the public face of the New Town and as such has iconic status. • The interiors are particularly well designed and represent the best of the era, particularly the early elements of ‘Minimalism’ • The loss of this building would be to lose an important example of iconic new town design with a high quality of both materials and detail • Of even greater loss would be that of the work of a significant architect and interior designer, Max Clendinning, who’s interior design works have been an influence on design to the present day • Crawley has historical importance as one of the first post-war New Towns to be planned • Crawley’s design principal is open, low rise and airy • The demolition is to make way for three 9 -10 storey tower blocks of flats and offices. Completely out of character with the ideas and history of the town • A new Town Hall is simply a waste of money and a destruction of our heritage

  • Publish the report on the foreign funding of extreme Islamist groups now.
    After Manchester and London Bridge, Theresa May says the UK is too tolerant of extremists. Yet this report may never be published due to its "sensitive" contents, meaning it is thought to focus on Saudi Arabia, which the UK recently approved £3.5bn worth of arms export licences to. After so many deaths there is no excuse for this blatant hypocrisy. Before taking away more of our civil liberties she must publish this report Cameron commissioned. If it results in the UK doing no further business with Saudi Arabia and UK politicians being humiliated for past trade that is better than fuelling more terrorism.

  • REOPEN INVESTINGATION INTO FOREIGN FUNDING OF VIOLENT EXTREMISM IN THE UK
    It is no secret that Saudi Arabia in particular provides funding to hundreds of mosques in the UK, espousing a very hardline Wahhabist interpretation of Islam. It is often in these institutions that British extremism takes root. An investigation into the foreign funding and support of jihadi groups that was authorised by David Cameron may never be published, the Home Office has admitted. The inquiry into revenue streams for extremist groups operating in the UK was commissioned by the former prime minister and is thought to focus on Saudi Arabia, which has repeatedly been highlighted by European leaders as a funding source for Islamist jihadis. The investigation was launched as part of a deal with the Liberal Democrats in exchange for the party supporting the extension of British airstrikes against Islamic State into Syria in December 2015. Tom Brake, the Lib Dem foreign affairs spokesman, has written to the prime minister asking her to confirm that the investigation will not be shelved. The Observer reported in January last year that the Home Office’s extremism analysis unit had been directed by Downing Street to investigate overseas funding of extremist groups in the UK, with findings to be shown to Theresa May, then home secretary, and David Cameron. However, 18 months later, the Home Office confirmed the report had not yet been completed and said it would not necessarily be published, calling the contents “very sensitive”.

  • Neha Chaudhry's Renewal of Visa application
    Miss Chaudry's walking aid could transform thousands of lives. But a technical error has left her in the situation of leaving the UK within 14 days or file an apoeal whuch does not automatically allow her ro file the correct version of this document.- an appointment's report detailing her status as a director of the company she founded. Unless the Home Office realises this was an unintentional mistake, we will lose the wonderful and frankly life-changing piece of equipment that will turn thousands, if not millions of Parkinson's sufferers. Many more younger sufferers are being diagnosed (http://www.parkinson.org/understanding-parkinsons/what-is-parkinsons/young-onset-parkinsons) each year. Andy Sinclair, director of Sysemia has said of Miss Chaudry " she has invented something that is socially, economically and morally a great thing to do ( source I Weekend) Please loby the Home Office to overturn this decision!!!
