• Release the 1921 Census early/
    It is already 97 years since the 1921 census. The 1931 census data for England was destroyed and no census took place in 1941. This is invaluable data and for many researchers release in 2021 will be too late.

  • Allow fibromyalgia sufferers medicinal cannabis
    As a sufferer of fibromyalgia, hypermobility syndrome and degenerative discs, i struggle to move on the morning and every day is filled with constant pain. No painkillers have worked so im left struggling each day. This brings anxiety and depression with it, and other symptoms. Cannabis has been proven to work in those with these conditions abroad, and its time we made it legal here on the nhs for those suffering with chronic pain. If the government understood how these conditions affect mental health, how pain depresses a person and depression makes the pains worse, they will help us.

  • NHS hospitals must urgently take measures to reduce temperatures on wards
    Nurses are reported to be suffering heat exhaustion including dizziness and nausea. Confusion is also causing them problems dealing with patients. Older patients and vulnerable patients of all varieties are in danger of dying in overheated wards/other areas of the hospitals.

  • Save Our Seabirds from Danish Over-fishing
    Denmark recently upped its catch from 82,000 to 458,000 tons a year. Most of this becomes fishmeal to feed farmed salmon, mink and livestock. Meanwhile, puffins and kittiwakes can't feed their young. The RSPB recommends a total ban on fishing for sand eels.

  • Petition to force fast food companies to have unsalted fries with all children’s meals
    This is extremely important as adding salt to fries increases the child’s intake and promotes unhealthy eating which can lead to child obesity and other health related issues. It seems ludicrous that as a parent I have to request that my child’s fries are unsalted which usually results in a longer waiting time. These fast food establishments such as McDonald’s and other high street brands which offer children’s meals need to readdress this, the fries should be sold unsalted as a standard, some parents may not realise that you can request unsalted fries, which is backwards as it shouldn’t even be an options on a child’s meal. It’s about time that this changes. Let’s make a stand and push for companies to do everything in their power to be as healthy a success possibly for ourselves and our children. We all enjoy these places as a treat but we should also be confident in these establishments to be doing everything they can to ensure our meals are fresh and as healthy as possible.

  • Diabetic sensors
    This is so important for me to help my 9year grandson who is type1 life easier on a daily basis using these sensors make it easier during the day and at night to check his blood without waking him with finger prick with test strips. These sensors are so expensive to buy and it's hard for a young working couple with other outgoing to have this extra amount of money to go out. You will do without for your child to have these sensors...type 1diabetic have enough to deal with so this makes life so much easier and safer. My friend is also type 1 too and works hard so she can buy these sensors. Type1 diabetics struggle on a daily basis so why can't these be made available on the NHS they are more than test strip but all round a better way to test their blood. I also think all type 1diabetics should have the help make it easier to do bloods with an immediate and painless result. This is a life threatening disease and they can struggle on a daily basis.

  • Clean up Horseshoe Common and Pond
    Because a lot more children than people realise live close to horseshoe common. It’s a beautiful space that should be used as such. Being in the centre of such a largely used town such as Bournemouth and regarded as a ‘natural beauty spot’ that seems to have become the ‘natural dumping spot’

  • Current university failed asylum seekers should be allowed leaves to remain
    It will save the future of individuals who are vulnerable to immigration status in the uk. Education is basic right of everyone and no one can snatch this right. Education is the only way that can change not only the status of individual but also it can change the society and the world. The home office is treating educated people like animals. So we can not allow the home office do do that.

  • Stop Andrew Farotade having to leave the UK
    Andrew Farotade from Nigeria has a master’s degree in engineering from Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen. He has worked for the Security Industry Authority in jobs in which he was responsible for the security of highly valuable, hi-tech equipment and intellectual assets worth millions of pounds. Marrying in 2013, his son was born in 2014; but later that year his wife was diagnosed with terminal cancer. She died when the child was 2. 3 days later, and despite working all through his wife's illness in order to meet Indefinite Leave to Remain rules as well as caring for her and their little son, Andrew Farotade was told by the Home Office that his application had been refused. The grounds for refusal were full of errors. An accusation of deceit against him was dropped on the advice of the government's own legal department, and the Home Office agreed to pay his legal fees (which they have not yet done). 3 months after this, they again refused him on the grounds of his "character and conduct" (still unspecified). Andrew Farotade and his 4 year old son's lives are now in limbo. His request for a second judicial review was refused because the judge said the Home Office didn’t have to justify their use of the controversial paragraph 322(5) of the Immigration Rules. He hasn’t been able to work since 21 July 2016. He can’t afford to challenge the ruling in the court of appeal. All he wants to do is to get back to the work the UK's own education system trained him for, to keep himself and care for his son, and to contribute to UK society. Further details of Andrew Farotade's story can be found in https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2018/jul/16/widowed-father-ordered-leave-uk-against-advice-of-home-office-lawyers-andrew-farotade?CMP=share_btn_link .
