Keep up the Cheerful Greetings Lollipop Lady
A Glasgpw's East end cheerful Lollipop lady has been banned from waving to children and families as it's against the health and safety rules. The friendliest Lollipop lady never fails to put a smile on the children's faces when they are heading to school in the morning. The council bosses have told the Lollipop lady that she is putting the Children in danger. The 74 year old is now being observed by a supervior in order to make sure these orders are enforced.

Ban social media images of animals killed for recreation.
It may not be illegal to kill animals for sport, but it is morally indefensible. Images of animals slaughtered for personal gratification, typically displayed with their proud and smiling killers, are a vile form of pornography that can be found on social media, including Facebook and Twitter. We, the undersigned, regard such images as distasteful and offensive, and we call for social media sites to ban their publication. (Please share this petition with your friends on social media.)

Lee Rigby memorial
Lee was a brave soldier who served in many countries putting his life on the line for the freedoms we have today. All we ask is a permanent memorial where he was cut down and murdered in Woolwich.

Please sign up for this as Lee's family can't have closure and somewhere to pay respects, thank you all x
