Help Us Stop Torture
“Governments around the world are two-faced on torture – prohibiting it in law, but facilitating it in practice” - Salil Shetty, Amnesty International’s Secretary General
Our aim is to stop both civilians and government throughout the world torturing people; whether they are innocent or not. It is a basic human right to not be subjected to torture. This petition is one of the various campaigns we are starting to try and stop torture.

Sincerely,
Maddi, Oli, Siobhan, Emma, Jordan and Samantha.

Cancel NPC's Car Park Management Contract in GMV West
The Issue The leaseholders of Greenwich Millennium Village (GMV) feel strongly that the decision to have parking enforcement in our private car parks—specifically those in Holly Court, Maurer Court, Metcalfe Court, and Moseley Row—was made without proper consultation with us. This lack of dialogue and transparency has resulted in a management system that does not align with the interests and needs of our community. One of the primary reasons for our concern is the imposition of parking enforceme...

Oppose Islamophobia Definition
We the undersigned oppose any government definition of so-called ‘Islamophobia’. We assert our freedom to expose and oppose the errors and violence of the Islamic religion and to bring the truth of the Gospel to Muslims. We deplore the inherent bias of the Government ‘Working Party on Anti-Muslim Hatred / Islamophobia’ in which every member is either a Muslim activist or, in the case of its chairman, Dominic Grieve KC, an apologist for Islam. We are dismayed that the sole focus of the ‘Working...

Hardworking People Against AB 928
Assembly Bill 928 is a reckless, poorly written legislative proposal. Whether it's for breeding, showing, rescuing, or keeping roosters for personal, cultural, or spiritual reasons, this bill undermines our way of life. It affects thousands across the state who cherish and maintain these animals as an integral part of our lives. Assembly Bill 928, under the guise of regulating cockfighting, does not distinguish between illegal activities and responsible rooster ownership. Legitimate breeders an...

The adoption and ratification of a new calendar for the United Global Trade Organization
To whom it may concern, I hope this article finds you well. **The Case for a New Calendar System Based on a Deck of Cards** The current Gregorian calendar, though widely accepted and functional, has long been criticized for its irregularities and inconsistencies. Months vary in length from 28 to 31 days, making planning and scheduling less intuitive. Adopting a new calendar system with "twelve plus one" months of 28 days each, and an additional "transition day" at the end of the year—would br...
