The No 10 petition site is great fun. It's obviously never going to make any difference to policy, but it is an excellent site for sidesplitting laughter, when you go on a dinosaur hunt.
The best dinosaurs are those that obviously are having problems coming to terms with Peak Oil and even Climate Change.
Here are a few prize ones (clue to spotters - try to find those with 10 or less votes!)
We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Implement a pilot scheme throughout Northern Ireland to drive on the right instead of driving on the left-hand side of the road. 1 vote.
We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to make it illegal to charge for parking. 2 votes.
We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to STOP MOTORWAY CONGESTION. 3 votes.
We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to stop the raising cost of learning to fly due to air fuel tax. 3 votes.
We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to tarmac over all railways, and make them into super hyways. 3 votes.
We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Keep Motorway Lights On. 4 votes.
We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to 1.) stop subsidising the uneconomic rural rail networks in Scotland and other outlying regions, 2.) use the savings to fund improved public transport infrastructure in crowded areas where demand is highest (London and major cities). 4 votes.
We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Scrap cars over 20 yrs of the roads. 4 votes.
We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Compensate 4x4 owners for rendering their vehicles unsaleable due to the extortionate new car tax rate for so-called ' gas guzzlers' . 5 votes.
... and perhaps my favourite ...
We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to scrap speed cameras. 24028 votes!!! Oh dear ...
But if you are going to sign a petition - make it this one! This looks forward rather than back.
