I feel the need to be a bit more verbose than Fireblade.

Whats the point? Petitions are an absolute waste of time and energy. They achieve nothing.

Only very occasionally do they appear to work but only those sufficently massive such as a couple recently organised by the grubby circulation oriented jingoistic red top press get noticed. In those cases the politicians were about to make their decisions anyway.

OK you two, don't say you weren't warned!

Don't expect me to sign-up to a petition to save Shelsley should the Croft ruling not be opposed and overturned.

Would that be why Fireblades name was prominent in the list of signees

I think he must have been sleep-walking, or should that be sleep-signing.

Steve knows we would do it anyway.

As you also know that I would sign-up for any similar petition about Shelsley, Prescott or where-ever!

A big girl made me and ran away. Well Jane Farthing did.

My missing verbosity was down to my lack of belief in the usefulness of these purported Downing St petitions. However it is a case of put up or shut up and I went and duly signed it.
