The appointment of Douglas Hogg to the House of Lords is a disgrace. Let's not forget this is the man who claimed for having his moat cleaned and his piano tuned when the expenses scandal kicked off. This is your chance to do the right thing and get the establishment to realise that enough is enough!

The protection of UK citizens visiting the USA.

FGM is a means of maintaining the inequality of the sexes/genders. It is an horrific practice and injurious to a woman in the process of giving birth.

To protect sordid and unnecessary harm, suffering and the ultimate extinction of wild animals. In the 21st century there is no excuse or valid sensible or justifiable reason to hunt wild animals to obtain their skins, heads or horns.

The undermining of access to justice is gaining pace under the Conservative government and that denies UK citizens their rights to seek a legally binding outcome to their issues. It is also a serious attack on the democratic process. The discussions thus far have highlighted travel times to other courts as not being unduly difficult. However, this focusses on car users. For those that need to attend court by use of public transport this can become a major impediment to their access to justice. It indeed appears to be a deliberate action to deny justice to vast swathes of the population

The rising death toll due to the unscrupulous methods used by traffickers and the daily scenes of unacceptable border treatment of vulnerable migrants.

Because there is shortage of affordable housing

Labour has been in no mans land for years, we need a change. Out of the four contenders I believe Jeremy Corbyn has the right values and compassion, thats needed to take the party and all it's members with it, to government. He is a man with understanding of all classes, and recognises, the lower class, as people not commodities ...to be thrown away, with the rubbish.

This is important because just because of his position doesn't mean he should get away with flaunting the law and due process. As a politician he should be made to account for his actions. He was duly elected to be a true and right minister in Parliament. His actions are causing many to suffer and if his policies that do so are flawed then they should be removed or he must give this account.

We need a real alternative to the Tories. Labour needs to accept the democratic will of the people and stop their dirty tactics against Jeremy Corbyn.

For too long the United Kingdom has been governed by a multitude of Career Politicians who know nothing about life in the real world. By using this as a qualifying standard we can ensure the people elected to govern have the experience and skills to do just that.

In 2015, 66.1 % of the UK voted. The Conservative party got 36.8% of those votes. Which, in reality, means 24.3% of the UK population voted conservative, leaving 75.7% of the population with a government they did not vote for. Dissatisfaction with austerity measures have seen socialist governments taking power across Europe, yet the UK 2015 General Election saw the UK buck the trend and look to a right wing party - UKIP - to represent popular dissatisfaction with mainstream politics. I believe this happened because the UK did not have a socialist party to vote for. But we have one now. Should the people of the UK wait four years under a government that is trying to repeal the hunting ban, against their wishes, initiated bombing runs over Syria in secret, and against the people's wishes, maintains levels of austerity against the people's wishes, and is negotiating the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership deal in secret, against the people's wishes? When there is now a viable alternative party which is anti war, in line with the people's wishes, anti austerity, in line with the people's wishes, and who stands for a more equal society, in line with the people's wishes. Big businesses are threatened with more taxes, harsher penalties, and tighter regulation, so will naturally spend the next 4 years attempting to rubbish and marginalise Jeremy Corbyn. Why should the majority population allow that to happen? I am interested to know how many people want a General Election in 2016. That's not to say this petition is merely a piece of research. If enough people want it, then we shall have it: the people are legally entitled to demand policy changes, or even a General Election, and under the rules of the Commonwealth, the reigning monarch has the authority to dissolve parliament (which Queen Elizabeth did, in Australia, in 1975 - this is no technicality, but an authority that has been used in recent history).
