Sack David CameronHe is a threat to National Security. If these scandals from his youth like PIgGate keep popping up he is a liability and open to bribery. Even if we consider that fracking is going ahead even though it is not economically viable with current energy prices seems to suggest a bribe somewhere down the line.37 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Colin Hammill

Petition DECC to urgently review the current approach to the solar feed in tariffJobs at risk The cost of solar panels since 2007 has fallen by over 70%. It is now the cheapest of all renewable technologies. This week, India announced the creation of 50 solar cities. Solar around the world is booming. In a few years, it won't need any support at all. But the UK Government seems to want to do everything it can to kill solar before we get to that point – and risk tens of thousands of jobs in the process. This is not the first time the Government has tried to kill the feed-in tariff, the scheme that pays people to feed clean electricity into the national grid from their solar panels. Back in 2011 Government tried to kill off 90% of the scheme with retrospective cuts. Friends of the Earth, together with the solar industry, took the Government to court - and won. Ministers were forced to backtrack. But once more, 35,000 jobs in the solar industry are on the line.

Refugees Welcome in ClackmannanshireDavid Cameron announced we’ll welcome 20,000 more Syrian refugees. But there’s a catch. This will take 5 years, leaving thousands of refugees in limbo. It’s now up to us to show that in cities, towns and villages all across the country we’re ready to welcome people now. Aylan, the toddler who drowned fleeing Syria, was just three years old. His town was under attack by Isis. His five year old brother and his mum also died trying to reach safety.We don't want Britain to be the kind of country that turns its back as people drown in their desperation to flee places like Syria. So let's stand up for Britain's long tradition of helping refugees fleeing war. Let's show the Prime Minister that we, the people of the UK, are proud to do our part and provide refuge to people in their hour of need.

City of Bristol TTIP FreeYou know when it's lunch time and you are walking down the street, wondering what to eat, and you stumble across either a McDonalds or a freshly made falafel from the market? What is your gut instinct? Which one do you choose? Falafel, right...? Because McDonalds is pumped full of pesticides, chemicals & toxins and NOBODY wants that inside their body... again, am I right? Well luckily you had a choice here. You could have chose either the toxic waste or the delicious, freshly made, goodness. You had a choice. Well the Transatlantic Trade & Investment Partnership (TTIP) is taking away our freedom of choice. What this agreement means is that the standard of food quality in our supermarkets will degrade. Meat, Vegetables, Fruit - the essentials - will be GM'd, pumped full of chemicals & injected with antibiotics. The British Government want to lower its standard of food by creating an agreement with the US to implement their standards. So remember that choice between McDonalds and Falafel? Well, now it's tea time and you have no choice other than to eat McDonalds for dinner. We want Bristol to be free from this hell, do you? If so, Stand Here for Change. https://www.facebook.com/Standhereforchange?fref=ts http://www.iatp.org/documents/10-reasons-ttip-is-bad-for-good-food-and-farming139 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Dan Cockram

Send Tony to Prison for War CrimesHe is a man who thinks he is still relevant in society and attempts to tell others what to do when he pioneered the Iraq War and helped the 2008 Recession to occur.12 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Chris Daoud

Boycott PMQsThis event is one of the causes of the lack of regard for politics in general amongst the electorate as it is so clearly nothing more than a public schoolboys’ shouting match. Its purpose is supposed to be holding the government to account but it singularly fails to do this and nothing positive ever comes from it that could not be achieved through alternative means. All Labour MPs (except individual backbenchers with genuine constituency based questions) should refuse to attend this brouhaha - returning to the chamber for any item that involves a vote. This would be a powerful strategy to move towards the better/different/more grown-up politics that Jeremy Corbyn advocates.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Heather Govier

All family review of child povertyIt is essential that we get a proper definition of child poverty so that any government can make proper decisions about how the will address child poverty. The decision to exclude in-work households means that the review will remove those families whose parents are working on low incomes and struggling to pay their bill! This decision would mean a potentially huge chunk of potential vulnerable children will be excluded and probably not become entitled to any support that should be entitled to. The UK has a a lot of low income families. Is this the reason they are excluded? Support this campaign so that the commission can make a valued decision on how to properly address child poverty across the UK.18 of 100 SignaturesCreated by peter brown

Stop Arms To SaudiWe have created this campaign in collaboration with Campaign Against the Arms Trade, Amnesty International (University of Liverpool group) and the Green Party. The United Nations’ Arms Trade Treaty (ATT) states that weapons should not be sold to countries if there is a potential that the arms or items could be used to facilitate a serious violation of human rights. Whilst Saudi Arabia has been deemed ‘’a very old ally and partner’’ by David Cameron (2012), it continues to abuse the human rights of its citizens based on their gender and sexuality and refuses to acknowledge a need for change. Our mutual economic relationship with this country makes us complicit in the systematic abuse that takes place. The UK should consider not only the articles in the ATT but a country’s approach to human rights as a whole. Saudi Arabia consistently commits egregious breaches of human rights. It outlaws freedom of speech, expression or belief outside of Wahhabi Islam and regularly imprisons opponents without trial. Homosexuality is branded a crime and is punishable by torture and execution. Saudi Arabia and the UK have long had close dealings in the arms trade. Saudi Arabia is Britain’s largest customer for weapons and the UK is the Gulf nation’s single biggest supplier, according to Campaign Against the Arms Trade (CAAT). Weapons created in the UK were used to bomb Yemen this year in what has been dubbed ‘’a humanitarian catastrophe’’ (Andrew Smith, CAAT). Saudi Arabia is the biggest sponsor of global terrorism, funnelling money to rebels in Syria and to Sunni terrorist groups worldwide. The terrorist organisation IS are ‘’a product of Saudi ideals, Saudi money and Saudi organisational support’’ (Senator Bob Graham, the 9/11 commission). How can we claim to be a country that supports equality, diversity and freedom of speech when we continue with this inherently hypocritical trade relationship? Once again, we urge you to take action, Yours, the undersigned,2,148 of 3,000 SignaturesCreated by Katherine Wright

Refugees Welcome in the City of LondonWe are the fourth richest country in the world. The City of London should be setting an example to the rest of the UK - we have the resources to do so and should be celebrating the contribution of immigrants and refugees to our City. Aylan, the toddler who drowned fleeing Syria, was just three years old. His town was under attack by Isis. His five year old brother and his mum also died trying to reach safety. Yet our prime minister said ‘we won't take any more refugees’. He thinks that most of us don't care. But we do. We don't want Britain to be the kind of country that turns its back as people drown in their desperation to flee places like Syria. So let's stand up for Britain's long tradition of helping refugees fleeing war. Let's show the Prime Minister that we, the people of the UK, are proud to do our part and provide refuge to people in their hour of need.
