Get 2 injured boys out of Aleppo!Because Abu al is likely to be crippled for life and yehia has life threatening injuries and both boys are suffering beyond words. There are many injured children in Syria and we can't help them all; but we must be able to get these boys out. The film crew were there so there is a route in and out. We helped people in the Second World War so now we do it again!34 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Rosemary Henman

Keep acupuncture in NHS for low back pain.N.I.C.E. have recommended acupuncture for low back pain since 2009 and are now reversing their decision.The British Acupuncture Federation (BAF) which represents six organisations covering all styles of acupuncture can attest to its effectiveness for this condition based on proven outcomes. The US military obviously agrees with BAF with regard to acupuncture's effectiveness in pain relief as its Warrior Transition Unit Clinics treat large numbers of soldiers injured in combat with Battlefield Acupuncture for pain relief. The World Health Organisation states that low back pain is the leading cause of activity limitation and work absence throughout much of the world, so if you haven't suffered from it yet, the odds are that you will. Do you want to be deprived of an effective treatment within the NHS and have to rely on anti-inflammatory drugs with their known side effects? -- If not please sign the petition and support patient choice.669 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Anthony Dickenson

Reclaim Drakes island!Drakes Island is a lost land of history that most Plymouthian's have never been able to visit. This island has been referred to as 'The jewel in Plymouth's crown', yet it can only be looked at from a distance, never touched. This has been going on for far too long. Military fortifications dating back to the 16th Century and running up to WW2 provide reason enough for historians to show interest in this unique island. However, the natural beauty of the island and it's surroundings, coupled with the already existing historic military structures offer opportunities for heritage economy like no other city in Britain! It is unacceptable that such a beautiful asset of Plymouth's heritage has been left to rot for over 15 years while the people of Plymouth can only look, but not touch.19 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Allan York

Refundable Glass BottlesThis will benefit the environment by reducing the energy requirements of recycling. Reduce the burden on local authorities to collect and sort this type of recycling. Donation and collection of bottles could help local fund raising activities. Other Countries including the USA have such a system, in fact it was common in the UK up the end of the 1960's.16 of 100 SignaturesCreated by John Berge

Every home owner must make a willWhen someone dies without making a will, it can cause confusion, bitter disputes and bereaved families being left financially insecure. Currently only 3 in 10 people have a will. People often don't want to make a will as they don't want to think about dying or they just don't get round to it. If the law made every home-owner have a legal will before they could buy a house, then it would greatly reduce these problems. A will does not need to be drawn up by a solicitor as it can just be a simple statement of your wishes. The only legal requirement is that it be signed by 2 witnesses. So it would not add too much effort or expense to a house purchase.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Helen Trim

Ban Snares for huntingIt is a barbaric and cruel way of hunting foxes,and rabbits, but also affects many wild and domestic mammals wildlife in Britain. The range is huge and includes, Badgers, rabbits, deer (muntjac and young deer), otters, hares, wild cats, stoats and many many more animals. A petition by MP's has been yadeto the Environment Minister but she has rejected it, on the grounds "hat land management and gamekeeping associations have developed a new code of practice on the use of snares that should be given “a chance to come into effect before even considering any further legislation”. Land mangement and gaming association are driven purely by self interests and could not care less of the suffering endured by snaring. I would not wish a death by snaring to my worst enemy, One must assume we have evolved from medieval practices in the 21st century, so why have snares. We humans should know better by now, then to inflict unnecessary pain and suffering to our fellow creatures, just to serve a few.7 of 100 SignaturesCreated by CJ Hummel

Child Access and visitationI feel that the resident parent is given more rights than the non resident parent. When it comes to visitation the non resident parent has to do all the traveling. In my position I have disabilities which mean I can only use public transport. I also have a minimal income which means a cost of around £150 per visit this is over a weeks money to me which means my health is affected. I am asking that both parent have to do 50% of the traveling and 50% of the school holidays. As many resident parents restrict access by not turning up to meeting places etc. I feel a parent should be there for their child at least 60% of the time.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Justin Palmer
