Vauxhall Astra Central Locking Issues?

The central locking on my Vauxhall Astra won't work. I press the button on the key and it doesn't do anything.
The car starts ok.
When the key is removed from the ignition, the radio stays on (when it should go off) and when you open the drivers door there is a beeping sound like when you leave your lights on.

I tried to reset the car, the doors locked with the remote but once I turned the car on it stopped working again with all the problems mentioned above.

thanks in advance

the door behind the driver is locked and so is the boot, the radio is coming on and off

Some proper lock oil into the ignition switch will probably fix it.
DONT use WD40 or anything like that, it will make things worse.

make sure the spring loaded ign.switch pops all the way out when you take the key out,have had some springs broken on these
