Electronic Petitions - Dipstick
This falls into the category of "potentially interesting website for Backroomers."

Forgive me if I am so hopelessly out of touch that this is last years news. (To give you some idea of my general worldliness I heard my first "mp3" only a few days ago. Dreadful thing).

Anyway - much is discussed at this site, and very often there are cries of "something should be done" about whatever it may be.

I have discovered this site - in effect, one can start and sign petitions that are allegedly directly presented to the Government. There is a statement that not only will they all be read, but every signatory will receive an email with the Government's response on the issue.

There is a host of transport related petitions, and of course the ability to start your own.

Sorry if that's dull. Not clickable because I never remember whether these are my own teeth, never mind the arcane and ever shifting policies of various internet fora.

Whilst I would make an excellent guide - Halfords, Sir, is third on the right past the mini-roundabout - I would be hopeless at using the tools within the shop.

yes, i can see where you're coming from...........and am sadly in a similar position............ only i'm nearer the bloke on the A303, near Thruxton, who traipses up and down with a sandwich board advising of pub food off the main road.

Seems ok to me if I paste it into the browser?

full url is simply (again not clickable), at:

No, the tiny url did not work when I copy and pasted. Perhaps it's IE 7 that's the problem.

Anyway, I went to that site yesterday to sign for a referendum to leave the EU. Maybe some of the members here may care to follow my example.

Good link, thanks. Although I won't be signing the EU one. :-)

What's an "mp3"? Are you referring to the new Mazda?

I might as well have been. Very boomy and tinny as f....
