Raise in the water bills by at least £31 on average a year to cover the sewage spills which aren't customers fault 

This campaign is vital to preserve the rich traditions and community spirit of Argyll and Bute. Local events like agricultural shows have been an integral part of our cultural and economic landscape for generations, bringing people together and supporting small businesses, charities, and community groups. The recent changes to school holiday policies threaten participation in these events, diminishing their accessibility and success. By joining this campaign, you support a return to local flexibility in school holiday scheduling, ensuring these cherished traditions can continue to thrive without undue burden on families or organisations. This is a chance to stand together for our heritage, economy, and community well-being, sending a strong message to decision-makers that local voices matter.

The UK has a good record of farm welfare (excluding battery chickens). We have fought long and hard for this. We do not need US meat imports. 

Dear Angela, We are all aware of the need for warm, affordable housing across the country. However, recent announcements from yourself and the government have sadly sought to pitch communities against local decision making processes and nature against people. The new Planning Reforms seek to take power away from those who have been elected to represent residents, overriding democracy and playing into the hands and ultimately pockets of developers. Developers already hold too much power and people will continue to be locked out of buying and even renting in this, their home town 💔 As one of the most nature depleted countries on earth, we can't afford to keep building without a thought for nature. Not only are green spaces essential to relax in, flooding is an increasing risk in over built locations, such as this. We rely on biodiversity, eg pollinators such as 🐝 bees and 🦋 butterflies to pollinate our food, however if all of their habitats continue to be concreted over, long-term this will effect every species, including our own. In order to reassure local people, who are understandably dismayed at these new proposals, please can you offer comfort with the following 🏘👇 - To bring empty properties back into use as a priority. - Setting an expectation for all developers to build a minimum 50% Affordable housing. - Abolish the disastrous Right to Buy scheme - Commit to respecting Local Plans - The expectation for developers to build warm, affordable homes. - Environmental measures such as solar panels, flooding protections, swift & bee bricks & hedgehog holes to be delivered as standard for all builds. - Ensuring environmental protections such as Sites of Scientific Special Interest (SSSIs] are adhered to - thereby keeping important nature havens such as Swanscombe Peninsula safe. Thank you, Written by 💚 Cllr Laura Edie On behalf of Dartford Borough residents

Charles' Coronation cost at least £72 million. Elizabeth’s funeral cost £162 million. The Royal Finances Report shows we lose £510 million to the monarchy every year and now we, the taxpayers, are expected to pay £46 million for a memorial to Elizabeth.  Enough is enough. This money is desperately needed for better causes - hospitals, schools, housing and more. If the monarchy is as popular as certain media outlets make out, then let monarchists pay for the memorial. As loyal and devoted subjects, why wouldn't they be able to raise that much?  Crowd fund the memorial and spare us overburdened citizens!

Statutory Sick Pay is the legal minimum employers must pay workers who need time off to recover from illness or injury. At just £116.75 per week, or £3 an hour, it simply isn’t affordable for millions of workers across the UK.  Sick Pay is supposed to be a lifeline. But imagine if you or your loved one, recovering from illnesses like cancer, chronic fatigue or depression, were forced to go into work when sick or risk falling behind on bills.  That's the reality for many people. One in four employees across the UK rely on Statutory Sick Pay when ill. And Citizens Advice estimate that 78% of people on the lowest incomes would go into debt after only a short time off sick. We have an urgent opportunity to change this. The Employment Rights Bill is currently making its way through Parliament. This is our best opportunity this generation to get support for a rise in the rate of Sick Pay.  Do you agree that sick pay should be enough to at least cover the bills? Please sign the petition and show your support for #SafeSickPay!

We urge you to sign this petition if you enjoyed the atmosphere of the The Driver Era shows this year (as Your Favorite Color certainly brought the vibes to get us all going) and new 80s 90s inspired music. We garuntee that if you sign this petition and all works out, you will NOT regret it. The Driver Era please give us what we want. Your Favourite Color AND The Driver Era sharing the stage was the BEST concert experience many of us have had. We would love to do it all again next year ❤️

The future of Goole and District Hospital could be under threat. The local NHS trust has "started work to look at future potential opportunities" and staff were informed last week that several wards have been earmarked for closure in the new year. Gooles population is vast and growing. The closure of the hospital will be detrimental to patients, especially to the elderly who will find it much harder to access the care and treatment they need. The Northern Lincolnshire and Goole NHS Foundation Trust has said no decision has been made over the potential closure of wards which is why we need to let them know exactly what the public thinks about such plans. Sign the petition now!  

Meat and dairy production is having a devastating effect on our environment, both here in the UK and globally; contributing to climate change, deforestation, water pollution and the depletion of natural resources. Moving to a plant based diet is the single most effective way that people can reduce their carbon footprint. We know that having a liveable planet now and for younger generations is important to local people. Croydon Council declared a climate emergency five years ago and we now call on elected members to show leadership in this area by showing that switching to plant based catering is easy to do and is the best option for the health and future well-being of our diverse community.

Because it is ruining peoples lives and they are afraid to speak up about it ,because clearly they realise that they have a gambling problem and if the industry is doing their job these people will be safe and able to recover from their mental health issues because gambling is a big mental illness and people don't talk about it enough
