This is the most important petition I have ever written, yet it has the least ✍️, why?
Petition: Require binding referendums on petitions that receive over 1 million signatures petition.parliament.uk/petitions/6203…
If you have ever signed a @HoCpetitions you should sign this 1
#DirectDemocracy
Have you created a petition and had it rejected?
Have you signed a petition that had 100k signatures but no action from the government?
Do you want change to the petitions process?
If you have said "yes" to any of these questions, why haven't you signed this?
Petition: Require binding referendums on petitions that receive over 1 million signatures petition.parliament.uk/petitions/6203…
Please comment
I want to change this:
Government Petition Sites That Never Lead to Change are Part of the Managed Illusion of Democracy dailysceptic.org/2022/05/10/gov…
And make it more like this:
In Switzerland, all the political power belongs to the people usatoday.com/story/news/wor… via @USATODAY

🪡 If a vaccine makes you 60% disabled you can claim up to £120k.
If you are 59% disabled you get nothing.
If a family member is disabled by the vaccine then dies you can claim, if they are not disabled before they die you cannot.
gov.uk/vaccine-damage…
If you successfully claim you could lose other benefits.
£120k sounds like a lot of money, but it is not if you need lifelong care or if you are a widowed parent left to bring up family alone. Image
If you loose a child under 2, you can claim nothing (I wonder what justification they have for setting this age....)

Are Twitter algorithms suppressing Tweets containing links to my petitions?
My HRA petition was trending a few weeks ago many Tweets had hundreds of retweets.
I can't find these popular posts any more.
It is the most popular open petition but I barely see any tweets on it now
Lots of followers say they haven't seen Petitions I have posted dozens of times.
If I search by the petition links I cannot find popular Tweets containing them.
I don't even find them searching by the Tweet text
If you search for the following petitions what is the most popular Tweet you can find?
Please link to it.

Was this one of the best commercial decisions a company ever made?
"This is a unique situation where we as a company simply cannot take the risk if in ... four years the vaccine is showing side effects"
Imagine what @ASTRAZENECAUK's share price would have done otherwise... Image
Petition: Remove indemnity from the manufacturers of covid-19 vaccines petition.parliament.uk/petitions/6191…
Unfortunately this petition alone will do nothing as the government are not obligated to act on petitions, please sign this too:

I have nothing against cats, but how is this petition always trending & now the 5th biggest open petition when our government are taking our rights away?

Isn't this more important (it could even help the cats)?

Trading the approval for 5-11 year olds. This was based on preventing hospitalisations in "future waves", there is zero mention of the fact vaccine effectiveness drops to near zero after 20 weeks so doses given in February will be useless by next winter.
They estimate between 340k & 1.9m doses will be required to stop 1 ICU admission.
"cases that required ICU admission were generally admitted for inotropic support and did not require ventilation; most were
discharged after five days"
The Chair summarised that for children aged 5 to 11-years old the risk ofsevere COVID-19 was very low. Vaccination could reduce the risk further but would come with local and systemic side-effects.
