I have emailed everyone I can think of (again!) including my son who lives in NZ - to ask him to get his UK friends to sign it. So many members / users if only everyone who comes on here would just sign it.

FNC I think even your son could sign it if he gives a UK address (yours perhaps?)

It hits me the same way, but we do have to allow that some of our apparent members are lapsed (i.e. never come back), or are duplicates (e.g. when people forget their password), or are simply not the signing type. We have seen some people refuse because they are concerned over their own privacy (e.g. the government would know they signed and would have collected their email address).

Ah I see. Shame because I thought it would be so easy to get lots of signatures. I've signed long ago and couldn't believe we have not yet reached 10,000. Thought we were going for the 100,000!!!

If only... :D

still there's more of us here than on other HU communities - er... not sure if that's good or bad really - just highlights that us roidies are a force to be reckoned with (well, on a good day anyway) J :D

9868 - ( only 132 needed for response - it better be a good gov response!) concious now signees are not TUK members - probably 'friends' on facebook...

Lucalie I found sending them the link directly as a message got me more signatures. It's easier the link is there so no excuses. Also whatsApp got me good response.
