e-petitions UK - cont.
My last comments, x-posted to mysociety.org remain to be replied to ... And then I thought: ================== Dominic Pinto says: Just rather intrigued that there has been no reactions - maybe too busy coding - either to Air or to this. And my last post 2 days ago is awaiting moderation. Ding! I should petition Blur to do something about this! written on November 30th, 2006 ================= Mind, will anything 'serious' be noticed in the 'noise'? Do take a look at recent 'petitions' e.g. We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Bring back Dick Barton,Jock and Snowy and the music The Devils Gallop that went with it, and while you are at it bring back the Light program and the Home service. And from the Grauniad UK, which may or not be accurate http://politics.guardian.co.uk/backbencher/0,,513903,00.html SIGNERS OF THE TIMES More headaches for valiant Tom Steinberg at the MySociety/Downing Street pioneering e-petition service. "UK, US AND IRANIAN TERORIST GOVERNMENT MIN CONTROL AND ELECTROMAGNETIC TORTUREER," petitioned one visitor. This petition has been rejected because it isn't clear what the petition is asking signers to endorse," replied Tom, no doubt wearily. Still, at least the stuff that does get through is edifying. "We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to keep Britain British ... Only English, Welsh and native languages to be spoken in schools and supported by local governments. No more multi lingual leaflets and interpreters. Live in UK speaka da English!!!" Nice. Meanwhile, a 14-year-old wants the PM to introduce an ID card because he "cant by films and games for 11 year olds and im fed up with getting asked for id i dont have eany." Do keep up, young man. Tony has every intention of giving you an ID card. "We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Ban all online petitions, including this one," writes Darren. You know, Darren, the Backbencher might just endorse that one.
