Millions of tonnes of food, particularly fresh food, that is perfectly good for human consumption are destroyed every year by supermarkets because it is in some way "blemished". Meanwhile those living in poverty, housed or on the streets, are going hungry or even malnourished here in the UK. This is utterly immoral and must cease NOW.

Its a no brainer. People are hungry and poor and food is being wasted. Three men were recently arrested for taking food from a supermarket skip, this food would be wasted and yet the needy get arrested for taking it.

Figures released by the government in July 2012 showed that 10600 people died within 6 weeks of stopping claiming ESA. Campaigners believe that the majority of the 10600 who ceased claiming and subsequently passed away were found fit to work by ATOS. It is unacceptable that the management of ATOS are pressuring assessors to fail so many claimants and deny them the benefits they are dependent on and entitled to rather than accurately asses the ability of claimants to work. Ultimately campaigners are calling for fairer treatment of all benefit claimants, especially the disabled and chronically and terminally ill.

It looks like the gagging bill is a precursor to this Transatlantic Trade Investment Partnership that the U S is trying to push through and are pressing Osborne and Co to sign up before the next General Election because once it has been signed it becomes irreversible whoever gets elected. A pure piece of Evil and the end of Democracy as we know it, multi-national corporations will rule and control us all if this succeeds.

Patient Care in any Health Service is paramount. Any action which adversely affects this service - calls for public awareness to address the issue.

Fracking is a potential environmental hazard. It is unjust that the public purse would be used for any environmental damage as a result of Fracking companies activities and not the companies themselves or an external Insurance organisation.

Investor-state rules could be used to smash any attempt to save the NHS from corporate control, to re-regulate the banks and to curb the greed of the energy companies, to name just a few areas. See here for more details: http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2013/nov/04/us-trade-deal-full-frontal-assault-on-democracy The rules are not enforced by courts but by panels. The hearings are held in secret. The judges are corporate lawyers, many of whom work for companies of the kind whose cases they hear. Citizens and communities affected by their decisions have no legal standing. There is no right of appeal on the merits of the case. Yet they can overthrow the sovereignty of parliaments and the rulings of supreme courts.

Wallasey Road is a residential area. Since the arrival of N&P Windows, Wallasey it now has an added rubbish tip/factory that threatens our health, pollutes the land, obstructs the road and pavements, threatened pensioners and noisily operates from 06.00hrs. Pictorial evidence is available here: http://nimby2013.wordpress.com This factory has allowed its waste material to escape its yard for ten years. Vehicles belonging to this factory and its suppliers have blocked and obstructed the road and pavement for ten years. The presence of this factory and associated raw and waste materials is entirely inappropriate for a residential area. I have no idea how many children would be poisoned by the tonnes of stored PVC if there was a fire in this site, but it would be considerably more than none. PVC when burned releases carcinogenic dioxins, these do not kill immediately but long-term exposure is linked to impairment of the immune system, the developing nervous system, the endocrine system and reproductive functions. (http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs225/en/) This is a residential area, your neighbour should not be a threat to your life or the lives of others. It is time for Wirral Borough Council to control this factory and protect the lives of the residents. When we are leaving petition forms we are told; 1 That people cannot park outside the Post Office because of N&P's vehicles 2 Complaints about damage to vehicles from N&P's vans 3 How house prices are lowered by N&P's activities 4 That this is no place for a factory 5 Foul language used by their staff in front of children 6 Sweeping out of their vehicles into the street 7 The company is too big for the area 8 It makes no sense for them to be here 9 Forcing people to wait whilst they load their vans 10 Being forced to reverse cars into Wallasey Road 11 Absolutely no concern or respect for road users or pedestrians 12 Why has this gone on for so long? 13 What are the Council doing about this? 14 The move would actually benefit N&P its suppliers and staff 15 Under Oath in 2006, the owner of N&P stated that they had no intention of staying in Rugby Road for more than two years. UPDATE: I am currently contacting the current Home Secretary The Rt Honourable Theresa May to look into the allegations of corruption that include the proprietors, members of Wirral Borough Council and Derek Thew of The Planning Inspectorate. After signing please take a moment to leave a comment. You can contact the present leader of Wirral Borough Council here: [email protected]

Since Putin's re-election in May the LGBT have suffered great injustices including banning the wider world Community from adopting, attacks on Community members at Pride marches,The law also includes a provision that allows the Russian government to arrest foreign tourists for up to 14 days for supporting LGBT equality. It is now illegal for LGBT people to publicly display affection, to tweet positive messages about LGBT people and their relationships, to broadcast positive news stories about LGBT people or to wear or display a rainbow flag or any other symbol of LGBT equality. Earlier in June, Mr. Putin signed yet another antigay bill, classifying “homosexual propaganda” as pornography. The law is broad and vague, so that any teacher who tells students that homosexuality is not evil, any parents who tell their child that homosexuality is normal, or anyone who makes pro-gay statements deemed accessible to someone underage is now subject to arrest and fines. Even a judge, lawyer or lawmaker cannot publicly argue for tolerance without the threat of punishment.

Local & Live has become a fixture in the town over the last six or seven years. It encourages and empowers young, emerging artists and gives them the opportunity to perform their own original compositions to a large and appreciative audience. By refusing the necessary level of assistance TWBC has killed a vibrant and necessary arts event that benefits local musicians & performers, provides a rich cultural event for thousands of local people and over £250,000 in revenues for local businesses. Instead, the council has granted permissions to a few local businesses to operate a sub standard 'Entertainment' event featuring covers bands and tribute acts, the purpose of which is to benefit the businesses involved financially, regardless of the wishes of local people. Tunbridge Wells Borough Council must be made to understand that the town has a vibrant and exciting arts community which it should be encouraging and supporting. They must not be allowed to let croneyism and business interests override local opinion.

Eggs are not needed and cost more money to use, than not at all. Every single Quorn product contain eggs.The egg industry kills hens when they get to be 18 months old and cannot lay as many eggs any longer, they breed more chicks and gas or shred male chicks as they cannot lay eggs. This should not be supported. Please sign this petition to ask them to stop using eggs.

By acting like a bank, you forget your unique role in the financial sector at the time when you should be most mindful of it. As your website points out, “Nationwide has mutual status, which means that we are owned by and run for the benefit of our members”, rather than for profit. Mutuals and co-ops should be keeping the banks honest, showing them that social justice and financial stability go hand in hand. If the ethical alternative to big banks is paying its CEO 190 times the minimum wage, then what hope is there for reform of the rest?
