This is important because these are vulnerable people who often don't have a voice. Clearly the city council just want to get rid of them from the city. Everyone surely has a right to bedding! Rather than criminalisation, the council should do more to help.

The torture of animals is a serious crime. The perpetrators left Chunky for dead. They may, therefore have assumed they had killed the him. A five year ban from keeping animals and a £500 fine is too lenient a sentence for such a barbaric crime. https://s.bsd.net/38degrees/main/page/-/CBY/Chunky-the-dog.jpg Background to the case: A tiny chihuahua cross called Chunky was stolen from his owners in Margate, Kent. The teenagers who stole him then tortured him for hours. He was left with multiple injuries that included a broken neck and leg, he was fed drugs and set fire to his face after spraying him with an aerosol can . He was then and left for dead at a rubbish dump. The RSPCA have stated this is one of the worst cases they seen. The four perpetrators were sentenced to the following. Two of the gang were 15 and 16 at the time of the offence: - Banned for keeping animals for five years. - 12-month referral orders and ordered to pay costs with fines ranging from £500 to £1000, totalling £2,000. Chunky survived and was returned to his owners. He's not the same dog he was before this hideous ordeal. We call on the Ministry of Justice to urgently review the sentencing decision on this case.

People should not be denied Access to Justice because they are poor

This risks and added stress to cross channel truck drivers is great enough without weighing them down with unwarranted financial burdens, most of which they have no control over. This is killing continental truck deliveries as neither the drivers nor the companies they work for can operate with such uncontrollable financial burdens hanging over their heads. The profit margins for UK based international logistics are very small as foreign logistics companies do it cheaper as they pay their drivers far less than UK drivers. These fines just make it untenable and is killing off UK based continental deliveries.

No one should be put through an ordeal like this - especially someone with children waiting for her back home. I honestly could not believe this headline when scrolling through my facebook news feed. I once read a short story called The Lottery by Shirley Jackson in which a woman is stoned to death because she is unlucky enough to draw the unlucky ticket in the local 'lotery'. That was fantasy. This is reality; and the two should never be mixed. Please help prevent this barbaric act before it's too late. Surely we've had enough of death and murder?

Because the Sun routinely headlines lies & mis-information that promotes race hatred & misunderstanding in the UK. The front page headline used on 23/11/2015 for instance may be mathematically correct but and its a big but, this depends what question was asked of the people they polled. The question is at best skewed. It's a general question and not specific. The question asked was "How do you feel about young Muslims who leave the UK to join fighters in Syria?" It didn't ask for instance which side these young people would be fighting on or if they would be jihadists. The Sun helpfully misguide their readers by adding a photograph of so called "Jihadi John". You can make your own complaint here too: https://www.ipso.co.uk/oxbxApps/app/complaint1.html

This issue has become important because of some of the stupid and I moral desisons taken by our representatives and the fact that now random and frequent drugs test are performed in many work places why should the house of commons and lords be exempt particularly as they should have nothing to hide from

The council plans to cut £2.5million from the youth service budget leaving less than one million to work with some of the most disadvantaged young people in London. We have 13 youth projects in the voluntary sector which could suffer as well as 8 youth centres as part of this 73% cuts. What will be left for young people in this Borough? The council promised not to cut front line services yet this is being proposed. We would also lose experienced and specialist workers in the sector as the services would transfer to the Environment and Leisure department. This will de-professionalise and de-skill professional youth workers leaving little to no varied provision. They are planning to delete ALL 122 full and part time jobs and replacing them with 42 part time posts. Southwark News report: 19.11.15 Richard Taylor, founder of the Damilola Taylor Centre after his ten-year-old son was killed on the Peckham estate, said this was no time to cut youth services as serious knife crime continued to blight the borough. “Bearing in mind the level of killing, stabbing and violence, this is not the right time. This is the wrong approach and a bad decision for the council. As Jeremy Corbyn has said 'austerity is a political choice'. Southwark must not abandon young people while sitting on millions of pounds of reserves which can be used to support the local community along with the fight to get more money from central government. Southwark Trades Council will be campaigning with the local government unions and community to stop these cuts. We will be lobbying the Council Assembly and have asked for a deputation at the Cabinet on Wednesday 24th November. Please join us.

We want the FULL TRUTH, visible and standing next to each other as Parisians are equal to Lebanese and Palestinians as ALL of us are HUMANs and suffer equally. Angelina Jolie posted about the ISIS attack in Lebanon which didn't receive any media coverage (see: https://www.facebook.com/OF.Angelina/photos/a.127159833963497.22403.127098593969621/1137146722964798/?type=3&fref=nf) Look at the current BBC website: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news Can you find anything about Lebanon, other ISIS hit regions and daily Palestinian sufferings?

Scarlet is a loving pet fox belonging to David Robinson. Scarlet isn't like any wild fox as she was bred in captivity and is just as much of a pet as anyone's cat or dog. Scarlet was living a happy healthy life until the RSPCA decided they don't agree morally with a pet fox, this itself wasn't an issue as not everyone can always see eye to eye. The problem occurred when they ILLEGALLY seized Scarlet for no reason other than she was a fox. Their reasoning; apparently a vet thought it would be in her best interest to live as a wild fox despite not being even slight wild, a vet who hadn't even seen Scarlet previous to making this ridiculous decision. Not only this but the RSPCA used bully boy tactics to get David to hand over Scarlet with threats of coming back with a warrant and leaving him with huge legal bills if he refused. It was only afterwards David learnt his rights and pointed out he had not signed her over to the RSPCA! They are now refusing the reunite the pair based on nothing more than personal opinion.

We need to keep 999 safe from G4S; a private company with a public reputation for incompetent working practices. Especially since 999 is an emergency number which calls for someone who has sound judgement, integrity, professionalism and most importantly cares about their work. If the Leicestershire Police Force Control Centre (FCC) which handles 999 and 101 calls as well as police radio transmissions is relocated from Leicestershire into another County, with it will disappear all of the local knowledge, experience and expertise that currently benefits both Police Officers and members of the public here in Leicestershire. This essential part of front line policing should not be moved to a location or put into the hands of the notorious G4S or any other private company who will run it as a business rather than for the benefit of the people of Leicestershire. The staff of the FCC are rightly proud of the professional service they continue to provide, and it is to their great credit that they put their concerns for the safety and wellbeing of the vulnerable and distressed members of the public who will be affected by these changes before their own worries about job security and terms and conditions of service.

G4S have a known record of failure including the Olympic games, is it now right to trust these people with response centres.
