Downing Street's defunct online petition page has been replaced with a new website that will give the public a "megaphone" to make themselves heard.

Commons Leader Sir George Young said any campaign on the site that was backed by 100,000 signatures would trigger consideration for debate in Parliament.

It will be up to the Commons backbench business committee to assess all petitions that qualify and decide whether they should be given time from the 35 days it is allocated each session for non-governmental business.

Do you know whar it's called?   I would like to have a look at it.   I would sign any petition that will get us out of Europe.   Also any petition which stopped this continuous influx of illegal immigrants into our country would get the thumbs up from me.

Caminito, I actually went onto here and signed to come out of Europe, my choice, but received an email back asking me to confirm which I did by going into the link on the page but it keeps coming back at me, is anybody else having a similar problem?
