allow freedom of movement for immigrantsI believe people should be given freedom to go where they want and do as they please and this includes immigrants because they're people to and I believe that every human deserves the same amount of respect and dignity, I mean just because they're poor and they might come in your country doesnt mean they're bad people infact I believe that the people who don't want immigrants aren't good people7 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Samuel Thornton

Bring down pensionable age !I'm a nurse and must wait until I'm 66-67 before I can receive my old age pension from the Gov. My nhs contributed personal pension won't cover my monthly bills if I retire at 60 yrs old and I'm sure there are a lot more people out there in the same predicament! Women used to reach retirement age at 60 yrs old so let's re consider this important aspect of being able to enjoy retirement with enough money to do so rather than having the possibility of being too ill in old age beforehand35 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Janet Cowl

I voted for BREXIT but changed my mind.It is an incredibly important decision that simply cannot be taken lightly, especially with such a tight margin in the deciding votes. Since the vote results the country has had more concise information presented to its population and with such unprecedented circumstances I feel it is imperitive to keep listening to the population's feeling on this matter. After all, the referendum was merely an advisory, certainly not a legally binding vote. Propaganda, muddied facts and figures all played a huge part in the exit, especially regarding the NHS (one of the beacons of the leave campaign), and then what and how the EU actually benefited the UK, especially in the areas of the country that prodominantly voted high to leave.10 of 100 SignaturesCreated by James Tarn

Reintroduce Politics to the youthDuring the latest EU referendum it was apparent that the youth of the country did not want to leave the EU. Unfortunately the percentage of young voters (18-25) was too low to make a difference. It's thought that during the 2015 general election only 52% of the eligible young voters participated. Whilst up from the 38% experienced during 2005, it's still well below that of other demographics. By educating future generations around the importance of voting along with the practicality's of how to vote, voter apathy can be reduced before it's a problem.80 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Aaran Pereira

Call for a three option referendum in the Brexit leave deal. Accept/decline/stayThis is important as many voters feel mislead after the referendum. This will give the whole of the UK time to understand what is really on offer at the end of negotiations. Will immigration be reduced, how much money will we really have available after withdrawal. This will ensure Brexit negotiations will focus on what has been promised, and show the voters what is on offer.24 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Gavin Brett

Introduce "Contempt of Community" lawThe proliferation of cynical lies contained within the recent referendum debate from both sides of the argument has exacerbated the divisions and mistrust now held by our people. The subsequent admissions of the use of false information by some have the potential to depress voters and increase the feelings of the lack of integrity within our society. We all deserve a better attention to truth than is currently displayed.9 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Iain Johnson

Re-run the UK referendum on EU membershipThose who voted in the EU referendum did so without the accurate, balanced, specific information they needed on which to make an informed judgment. As a result of the vote for Brexit the UK has been plunged into economic, political and social turmoil and uncertainty that will last for years and are likely to damage the country profoundly. Millions of those who voted Leave are now realising the vast, complex and negative impact of their choice, for the UK, Europe and the world - and so are those who voted Remain. Ireland voted NO in both referendums on the Maastricht and Nice Treaties, and on both occasions the Prime Minister went back to the people to vote again - and both times they changed their vote to YES. The same can be done in the UK. David Cameron needs to have the courage to swallow his pride and take responsibility for restoring stability and creating unity in a country which desperately needs both.35 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Lindsay Wittenberg

We need open primaries for Labour leadershipThe PLP argues that Jeremy Corbyn is unelectable. The party members disagree. We need more people to believe in the Labour leader if we want to govern again. A nationwide series of open primary elections (as seen in some states in the US) will allow the voters to choose the candidate most preferable to them. A relevant change to leadership election rules is needed to settle this question once and for all. The result will be indisputable, and must be accepted by all, and is more likely to lead to a General Election victory.6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Saad Ahmed

Give us a better democracy, without the House of Lords and with a constitutionHaving been so careless about the future last Thursday we owe it to ourselves, and those who follow, to ensure that there is a representative democracy that works throughout Britain. Having a sensible second chamber would remove the hypocrisy of criticising the EU institutions. It would also kill the shame of having the largest wholly unelected second chamber in Europe. Agreeing a constitution would force us to reflect on the importance and fragility of democracy and how we make sure that it reflects the interests of all.7 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Stephen Ashworth

Make voting in all UK elections/referendums compulsoryHaving lived through the recent referendum on Scottish Independence and last weeks referendum on membership within the European Union I feel our current democratic system is seriously flawed. I would like to see a move towards making it compulsory for everyone eligible to vote in a referendum or an election having to exercise their democratic duty. In order to ensure that each individual has had an opportunity to exercise their right I would like to see the inclusion of a "none of the above" box in each ballot paper, thus enabling those who do not wish to opt for the options availabe to still vote. I am aware that this system works successfully in other countries around the world. I think given recent events and the current political climate it is time to make a change to how we elect representatives, time to make changes to our political position in the world. I believe that making voting compulsory will ensure a fairer, more representative outcome.23 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Sheona Jenkinson

Government to uphold and act on recent referendum result to leave EUThis is VITALLY important as this is our democracy at stake. If the government overturns or does not act on the majority vote to leave the EU then we truly do not have a voice in this country any more. We might as well live under a dictatorship. Where will it end if the government decide to not leave the EU against the wishes of majority of the British people - will they then hold a second election in the general election if they do not get the vote they want??! Please support this petition, there is everything at stake here. If we allow the government to renege on their promises now then this gives them open licence to do it again and again in the future and democracy will be truly dead and buried.29 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jane McDonnell
