No State Visit for President TrumpThroughout his candidacy and now in the first days of his presidency, Donald Trump has sought to undermine fundamental principles - gender and racial equality, human rights, religious freedom, freedom of the press and preservation of the environment amongst others - that Her Majesty the Queen and the British people hold dear. If a State visit is granted, we believe that it would legitimise a series of beliefs that are fundamentally opposed to those of Her Majesty and the British people.64 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Algy Williams

Women`s HealthSurely penalising Women who have to have gynaecological operations, goes against equality at work laws ? Stress induced by bullying employers, or inflexible corporate dogma, makes hard working people more susceptible to other illnesses, putting good employees into a hopeless situation, demoralising them or, in the worst case scenario, facing dismissal for being unfortunate enough to experience several episodes of illness in one year. Employers know who the malingerers are ( or SHOULD, if they are decent employers). Good Employees need support when ill, NOT corporate bullying.7 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Keith Bennett

Get Southeastern off the railways!Southeastern do not provide a functioning service. There are frequent delays and cancellations. The service, which a lot of people use to go to work and for their social life, is not reliable. People are having hours added onto their working week because of their incompetence and some are even losing their jobs.21 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Amanda Keith

#PeopleMakeGlasgowAs you may be aware, Glasgow City Council intend to invest £9million in to Byres Road in the west end. There are many areas of Glasgow that would benefit from such a boost to their area, which in turn would increase local economy and infrastructure. But still the city council are focusing on further gentrifying the ''West End'' area. We must make a stand to bring a better quality of living to the people who need it most. http://www.glasgowlive.co.uk/news/glasgow-news/council-announce-9million-redevelopment-byres-12500853?service=responsive12 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Te Quila

Allow The Groundkeeper's Cottage To Be Built From Locally Sourced SandstoneThe Norh Shire are a young but thriving small, family ran business. They have dedicated their time and business to bringing alive beautiful buildings from well known books so that fandom's can see their dreams realised by spending a night (or two, or three, or four) in a place that they have only been able to dream of until now. They are one of 16 businesses who currently have permission for their 'Hobit Hole' hideaway. A perfect place for families to take a break from reality and enter into a fairytale world. Their business is growing from strength to strength with the Hobbit Hole being a central point. People are travelling from all over the world to stay, bringing much needed tourism and income to the area. North Shire is based in an area that is suffering an economic crisis as the steel works that provided many jobs and much needed income has closed. It is now more crucial than ever to lift the economy of East Cleveland in Teesside This is why I am asking North York Moors National Park Autority to reconsider their request for The Groundskeeper's Cottage to be built in wood instead of stone. The fandom of which this unique and magical building is based is a continually growing one. It is undeniable how far the fandom reaches and with a current movie trilogy underway, it can only grow. Having a local business build this incredible building (from locally sourced sandstone) can only bring happiness and light, as well as much needed tourism, media attention, and income to this area. If the building is built in wood, it simply becomes another treehouse. Please, reconsider and make magic happen! Image credit:wormhole paintings82 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Amy Luder

Tie DIEIn many of the UK's workplaces the wearing of a tie by male employees is both expected and compulsory. In our view, the tie serves no other purpose than to signify the gender of the wearer; in this case male. This is as unfair as women being expected to wear high heels. Men should be able to choose whether to wear a tie or not. Being forced to do so is, in our opinion, both antiquated and sexist.19 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Lee Garratt

Allow UK Parliament MPs to have a 'free' vote on the Brexit white paper to leave the EUThe result of the UK referendum held in June 2016 on whether the UK should remain a member of the European Union clearly showed that the will of the people is to leave the EU. (Leave 52%, Remain 48%). However, the referendum did not state the terms on which we should leave or policies that should be agreed once we have left. MPs and Parliament need to be given an opportunity through a 'free' vote to debate and agree Brexit policy by representing the views of constituents, rather than the imposed views of their respective political parties.13 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Adrian Wheway

Tell Teresa May to raise Climate change withTrump.In his first acts as president, Donald Trump has frozen funding for key environmental agencies, removed 'climate change' from whitehouse and epa websites and prevented the publishing of data. We call on the Prime Minister to be unequivocal in resisting climate change denial which is a danger to the u.k.18 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kevin Stevenson

Replace grass monocultures with natural floraGrass verges compound the difficulties facing British pollinators by removing a potentially valuable source of indigenous flora. Its maintenance places an unnecessary strain on already stretched local government budgets and creates an environmental non-entity in a space which might otherwise be a productive habitat for wildlife.17 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Thomas Boughton

Houses of ParlimentThe UK would enjoy money from the extra tourism, the relocating the Houses of Parliament would save a lot of tax payer money. The old Houses of Parliament would become a bigger tourist attraction giving money back to the tax payers pot and put towards better healthcare and looking after the elderly.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Vicky Weller
