What these people are allowed to do is not ‘get married’. What they do is covered by a civil agreement and it should be illegal to use the term ‘marriage’ to describe the condition.

Failure to support the indigenous population on this point will SURELY put the final nail in the coffin of Gordon Brown and his scottish cronies on the cabinet.

All people must have the right to live a life free from hurt and harm. We must be allowed to live our lives as we wish, doing no direct harm to others, without interference from or by any employee of the state. All employees of the people, be they State, central or local must be subject to a penalty, more severe than that for a citizen, for abusing powers promolgated or delegated by law.

The latest 28% voter turnout in the English and European elections is disgraceful. How can 28% determine how the whole electorate wants to be governed.

The recent murder of two UK servicemen in Northern Ireland demonstrates what will happen when politicians appease their opponents, even when those opponents are themselves criminals. No elected and remunerated public official should be entitled to refuse to condemn the murder of UK service personnel.

having human rights is a disgrace. we couldnt even deport a terrorist to his homeland because he would get tortured.

Anyone who actually needs any elucidation over what this foreign criminal is being allowed to get away with by our scottish cabinet needs to get a life!

To protect UK manufacturing jobs and the recession hit motor industry from complete collapse the Government must reduce the level of VAT on the sale of all new motor vehicles manufactured in the UK to 1%. This reduction must be fairly offered across the board to all vehicles regardless of engine size.

To avoid potential deflation while buyers wait for the reduction in the VAT payable the reduction must be backdated to January 1st 2009.

The reduction in the VAT burden on consumers is cheaper than paying for tens of thousands of people out of work claiming benefits and the collapse of the remaining manufacturing sector in the UK.

This reduction will demonstrate the Government is serious about protecting jobs and industry.

Hospital parking fees are nothing more then a tax on the sick. Many hospitals are situated out of town centres and the only way to reach them is by car. The parking fees are unnecessary and extortionately high in this economic climate. We urge the government to either lower hospital parking fees or scrap them completely.

What is happening in this country. Noone is afraid of Police and Government. Crime are happening whenever criminals wish to commit it. Day or Night they have no fear as our Government do not take strict measures. Unless Government or Police shows what they are about; normal decent people won’t be able to live peacefully. People who hurt others ruthlessly have no right no live. THis country should show criminals there is no place for them in this country.

Please bring back the death pentalty.

Britian is a nation that has gone too soft on criminals. Especially those who would take a young life away at their own cold hands.

So everybody get signing and we can bring justice for the victims and their families.

why should pedophils have the right to live there inhuman, alls you do is lock them up for a few months and let them back out on the streets to commit again theres no reabilitateing some one who commits such crimes they should have there lifes put to a end you should do some think about it

Why should people who conflict death or a life time of insecurity and pain on other people get away with a few years in prison. Bring back the death penalty for these offenders.

national service for all school levers that have no intention of going on to further education or have not got employment by the time the new term starts in september

I will attempt to the best of my ability to reflect the views of two extreme constituents with opinions on “acceptable” facial hair. I will begin with the thoughts of many creationists, “I am in the image that God created for me.” Many religions worldwide see the removal of any body hair as a direct insult to God, a good example of this are the Nazarene’s thought to be close to Jesus Christ himself. It is also thought that shaving is an extreme act of supreme vanity showing superiority over the God who created him.

The humanist viewpoint does not differ greatly either with the quote, “I am as I have evolved” or more directly “I am a man, as my DNA has destined me to be.” Surely we males would not have been selected through millions of years of evolution if hair on the face or the body for that matter had not have been of some importance?

Thank you very much for your time and responses would be much appreciated.

You have to pass a test to drive a car, a passport to travel abroad, a CV to get a job, you have to get a licence to get married, and yet you can bring another life into this world regardless of your qualifications, lifestyle, responsibility level, paitence, age etc etc.

If you had to get a licence to allow pregnancy it might make people think twice about being more careful about having unprotected sex because they’d be breaking the law, it might control teenage pregnancies, drug addicted babies. Babies that are beaten because their parents are not suitable and responsible to be just that, parents!

At the end of the day appling for a licence would mean you have to have half a brain and some common sense which I would say are two good starting qualifications for to be parents.

There needs to be some form of law to bring a new life into this world, sign the petition if you agree that something serious should be done to STOP alot of people bringing a new life into this world because they just aren’t suitable, responsiable, drug free, non alcoholic or good enough to do so.

Social workers should legally insist that all clothing, except for maybe underwear or nappy, be removed and food/paint/makeup/ointment etc be cleaned off at every visit. As highlighted in Baby P’s case, clothing and ‘chocolate’ can hide a multitude of sins. Children old enough to speak for themselves may be too afraid to do so.

If this was implemented, abusive carers would soon understand that it won’t be so easy to hoodwink social workers or to hide signs of physical abuse.

Up to four children die each week in England from abuse or neglect & many more suffer serious harm or injury. The NSPCC says that babies & toddlers are particularly vulnerable to physical abuse.

Many instances of child abuse are never brought to the attention of the authorities. It should therefore be compulsory for carers to take babies & toddlers for a health check & physical examination at least every 3 months, for the first year or two, to help detect any signs of neglect or physical abuse. If carers fail to attend a health check, social services should be alerted and the child seen without delay.

Responsible carers already take their children to health centres regularly, so this system should only serve to highlight any irresponsible, neglectful or abusive carers. It would help prevent the very young and most vulnerable from slipping through the net and hopefully prevent further tragedies like that of Baby P and Tiffany Wright.

Thank you.

I am deeply offended that Western Culture ridcules the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. As a christian I do not like his name to be used in such evil and harmful ways. It should be made ilegal. Everywhere I read in a newspaper or on TV how dare they use My Kings Name like this. All you other christians out there will feel the same way as I do. So Mr Gordon Brown stop sitting on your lazy backside and do something about these people who wish to upset "Us religious people." Because it is the best thing that ever happened to me was giving my life over to christ. So he would change me for the better now I think of others more and I am happy. I am prepared to make a change and turn the whole world to Jesus Christ. Amen

dont allow any one to drink drive at all

I think that people who are under the income band should get EMA. But the people who are over the income band should have there parents pay the £30 a week as they can afford it.

There is still several million foreign workers holding jobs here at a time when we have over 2 million unemployed British workers.
We can’t get the jobs while foreigners still have them.

Sherlock Holmes is one of Britain’s best known fictional characters, internationally recognisable and loved by many. This cultural icon is currently at risk of being ruined by an idiot. The idiot I speak of is Guy Ritchie, creator of a myriad of mockney guff such as ‘Snatch’ and ‘Rock ‘n’ Rolla’. One can only imagine what Guy Ritchie will do to Sherlock Holmes. The only thing we can be certain of is that it will be packed full of mockney caricatures and leave you feeling culturally violated.
I concede it is not possible to ban Guy Ritchie from realising his hideous vision of making a film of Sherlock Holmes but it may be possible to stop him doing it in Britain. There must be a law on the statute book that can be used.

In our opinion, too many people are ‘getting in on the act’ of citizenship and spoiling the general makeup of Englishness by not adhering to the well-established English way of life and furthermore attempting to overwhelm the English indigenous population. We propose that any people(s)who choose to reside in this country should adhere vehemently to the English way of life, swear allegience as such, and thier public presence should be as an English citizen and not impose thier culture in any way, shape or form on the English way of life. To ensure this, there should be relevant laws imposed on all citizens equally within the English community.

It is drug user’s own choice to start taking drugs, therefore it should be their own choice to come off them. We, as clean living tax payers, should not foot the bill for them to do so. It should be our human right for our money not to be spent on these people.

The younger you start using Sunbeds, the more likely you are to develop skin cancer, enforce a minimum age of 18, like that in place in Scotland

All foreigners should be banned from sailing on ships under the British Ensign. All jobs should be restored to British seamen as promised by Tony Blair in the 1997 election.

I think it’s all our jobs as adult’s to protect our innocent children. Therefore when a pedophile has abused a child, they should be sent to prison for life.

Stop primetime scenes of torture on TV shows. US shows like 24, Alias, Lost and UK programs including Spooks regularly show graphic torture scenes.

Not only are the methods totally illegal – but images of people being kicked directly in the face and suffering even worse abuse, makes such actions “normal” to certain individuals.

Young people in particular are susceptible to imitate such behaviour. Banning the screening of such material until after 11pm would help to stem the desensitizing effect of torture voyeurism.

Make healthy prisonmates join the army – resolve over crowding and help the war on terror

Need I say more, it’s obvious that if VAT is cut this will affect everybody, cutting the interest rate only affects people with a mortgage. For everyday people trying to afford groceries etc, this is a must. Money needs to be saved for everyone 17.5% is a joke!! Look at the other countries!!!

In recent weeks it has emerged that media coverage of a story resulted in many people making complaints about a radio show that the vast majority hadn’t even tuned in to. As a result the programme in question was axed. As the story unfolded it would seem that with the media manipulation it was taken out of all perspective. Now, those listeners who tuned in every week were denied their choice of how TV licence money was spent. A support group was set up on a social networking site to match the number of complaints, which it did and more. But,the authorities have chosen not to recognise this public opinion and have dismissed the group as misguided youths. I would like to see more respect for the online community and the numbers of people who set up support groups, these numbers should be taken into consideration for reporting procedures.

The people are fed up with the attitude of the banks, we have helped them through a tough time and have had NO! reward in return, on our loans or mortgages. We want the desission reversed give us our money back or give the people the interest the banks are earning on what they have been given from us.

Many of these brave young men gave their lives during WW11 and deserve to be honoured for it.

that all sporting events, football, rugby, cricket etc held at international level is made free to all.That means forcing Sky or Setanta to use an unscrambled signal on a channel everyone can have free access to.

With declining standards in TV/radio, channels are now airing explicitly sexual shows of a pornographic nature. Virgin 1’s ‘Sexcetera’/ Channel 4’s ‘Sex Education Show’ are examples, whilst so-called comedy like ‘Little Britain’ & similar are filled with crude, smutty innuendo. Media glorifies violence/immorality as ‘cool’ & to be aspired to, influencing young minds & doing nothing to discourage today’s gang culture. We don’t want these shows even AFTER the watershed. We’re told if we don’t like it, then switch off! This allows standards to further degrade. We demand a return to decency/morality by broadcasters. The supposed defence that censorship is ALWAYS wrong, doesn’t stand up to scrutiny. Society censors behaviour all the time. If not, why have laws, as all behaviour, even murder, would be OK! The constant drip of immoral/indecent viewing/listening material, can & does lower society’s standards too. This is not a simplistic conclusion. It’s common sense!

The BBC dont show averts due to us paying a licence fee. ITV show adverts to create revenew. ITV dont get any licence Fee money. BskyB however make you subscribe for channels then hound you with commercials making millions both way its unfair and unjust. BskyB should do one or the other not both.

The only way we can protect our children from abuse and incense, is to for social service to monitor every child from birth until the age of sixteen. The social worker could be responsible for a maximum of six children and provide detailed reports on each child. In the long term this would save social services and the tax payer time and money.

The campaign to move Christmas, is our way of beating the so called Credit Crunch. Moving Christmas to the 29th February should give people longer to recover from the massive financial burden inflicted on them by this annual event.

Resources are scarce while human wants are insatiable giving rise to oppoptunity cost. Food, shelter,warmth, clothing and justice are accessible only with Money. If you don’t have Money you can’t have them.

In these difficult times, and for a limited time only, reduce the jackpot amount and payout a minimum of £1000 for anyone matching 3 numbers and £10,000 for matching 4 numbers or some other not insignicant amount. There must be some way of juggling the revenue so that Camelot profitability, good causes and HM revenue and customs are not penalised. Let’s increase consumer confidence, the feel good factor and help families reduce household debt.

If a car sales man were to write a message on the windscreen of his cars “This car can cause damage to health and even death” he wouldn’t be allowed to sell it to the general public. If the food and drinks industry were to do like wise that the consumption of their food and drinks can cause serious damage to health and even death, their products would be withdrawn from all the shelves and on it goes for every industry. Retailers would just not be allowed to sell such products to the general public. Yet, the Government actually states on every cigarette packet that “This is a Government health warning: cigarettes can cause serious damage to health and even death” and then allows it to be sold through every outlet. It is allowing faulty and dangerous goods to be sold generally with full knowledge. Revenue received by the Government from the cigarette industry is an odious resource. Surely, the Government can be prosceuted.

Incinerators produce massive amounts of Carbon Dioxide, far more than a conventional gas fired powered station.

They are not economic and generate electricity at only around 35% efficiency, compared to over 65% by power stations.

Recycling is cheaper and greener than incineration

Whatever enters the incinerator leaves the facility, either to landfill or ‘sky-fill’. Carbon dioxide, dioxins and acid gases are not present in the waste; they are all created by the burning. Burning plastic inefficiently in incinerators is not the way to manage residual wastes, making it much harder to meet climate change targets. Disposing of a community’s wastes may be their biggest contribution to climate change.

Advertisers are commonly misleading the public by making claims that use science sounding terms to make claims that are scientifically wrong. For example claiming a Magnet can attract dye leaching from clothing.

It is my opinion that these claims are misleading children and affecting the education of the current school population.

We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to stop the demolishion and or redesign of the Astoria Theatre London W1

In any other part of life, for example a contract of employment, there are certain duties that a person promises to carry out. If you odered a screwdriver and a hammer turned up you would send it back and if an employee refuses to make good on their conditions of employment they would be sacked. With election promises this is not the case. We have the blanket smoking ban and no referendum on the EU treaty, against what was promised and on what the government was elected upon. I propose that if a promise made is not kept by the winning party without very just cause, we the employers of government should have some way of reponding, not just waiting until the Government decides it wants an election.

Banks are now in the position where it matters not how they perform, the taxpayer will pick up the tab. No mention has been made of safeguarding against directors awarding themselves huge bonusses out of the taxpayer guarantee. Investors who went offshore for higher gains are also being offered compensation. Why are these greedy people not being asked to repay the high gains they got, before asking for taxpayer money to be handed out to them. The taxpayer MUST be given an opportunity to state they either do or do not support this position. The government keeps spouting that these are unusual times. The government should take the unusual step, therefore, of allowing the people who it will affect most the choice of putting a stop to it by giving them a legally binding referendum, immediately.

When the governing political party changes is leader which results in a change of prime minster then the new prime minister should be required to hold a general election within 91 days of taking office. In the event that the change is due to sudden serious ill health or death of the previous prime minister then subject to parliamentary approval then the general election can be delayed for 91 days

Everybody I talk to is fed up of the greed the celebrities of the world have. They spend without thought for anyone worse off than themselves. They then have the cheek to front televised ‘phone-in’ charity programs asking the general public to part with money they haven’t got. We all sympathise with all these great charities but there shouldn’t be any need for them as the total value of the world’s rich list would cancel out any charitable need without trying. We want to see most if not all of the celebrities in this country giving to these charities before they call on the hard up and make them feel guilty.

Too many companies are now abusing this word, typically these are companies offering internet services. An example would be of Company A offering mobile/home broadband with unlimited usage. Then in the terms & conditions there will be a clause that restricts the customer to download only 1Gb of data per month.

This is NOT unlimited.

Unlimited is defined as being: not limited, infinite or unrestricted.

If no current law prevents this, then one should be made to cover this grey area.

The current drug laws are flawed in that certain drugs such as alcohol and tobacco are perfectly legal, where as other drugs that are less harmful than these two are illegal. This undermines the message that drugs are harmful, as the users are fully aware that the scientific community consider drugs such as ecstacy and cannabis to be of equal or less danger than alcohol or tobacco. This makes illegal drugs seem harmless, and the drugs laws seem ridiculous. We propose that the government stregthen its chosen message by either:

a) Illegalising alcohol, tobacco and any other considerably harmful intoxicating substances and introducing them to the current ABC classification system.

OR

b)Legalising those drugs that are less harmful than alcohol or tobacco, based on an evaluation by professionals in the appropriate field (not the clouded opinion of MPs, which is has been the faliure on other similar attempts).

Make it illeagal for a company not to respond to a job aplication or to respond with no valid reason. this will stop all of the illeagal age,racial discrimination when applying for jobs

To petition the Government to nationalise all student debt.

We note that the Government has nationalised the debt of banks that have run into financial difficulty, and believes that graduates should be afforded the same treatment.

Graduates pay an extra 9% tax on all their income over £15,000 leaving many struggling to pay housing costs and bills.

Graduates currently owe the Government in excess of £16bn — far less than the total used to nationalise either Northern Rock or Bradford and Bingley.

Therefore graduate debt should be written off and all fees cancelled for current students.

The amount of homework children receive from school should be reduced due to the school leaving age being raised to 18 years old. Children spend on average 6 hours a day in school, and an extra couple of hours doing homework. Attending school for 6 hours a day of a childs life is enough, rather than the additional homework and the recent push up to an extra year of school whilst you’re in your adult years. You can get married and have children by that age, could you find enough time for excessive piles of homework stacking up on your desk?
