Hundreds of primary schools are closed each year to cater for local elections. In addition, thousands are closed to cater for general elections and referendums. Other countries hold their elections on Saturdays. A recent legal precedence ruled that a parent could not remove a child from school to go on holiday, but local authorities are regularly forced to close schools to facilitate elections.

Many local children walk to and from the local school unaided! Many cats lives have been lost in this area and as a previous A30 road this needs to be addressed! Our village is NOT a cut through or a race track!!! Keep our children safe!!

It demeans the country and its people

Plans to sell off Oswestry's council houses were voted against ten years ago. Our attitude to this has not changed. Oswestry needs more social housing, not less. We want investment in building new homes in the right places for our community whilst protecting our heritage.

Stevenson Square is a space that the people of Manchester could own, in a city that lacks publicly owned community spaces. It was once a space for open-air speakers, a meeting place for all and the starting point for processions and celebrations. Today we're seeing the revival of that culture with street parties, markets, cafes, bars and restaurants spilling out into the square. But it can never be the vibrant public space we need whilst cars continue to dominate it. By removing the right of cars and buses to use Hilton Street the square could be a permanent space for music events, festivals, community gardens or just people enjoying their lunches in the sun. Just look at what happened when Levelz took over the square for just a few hours as part of Record Store Day https://twitter.com/LEVELZMCR?lang=en. Pure fun.

Many people still want to shop locally and it is still a good place to meet others and promotes communiy life. It supports uk manufacturers and is better environmentally,if we shop nearby. It also encourages pride in our town when shops are open and being used

He is honest with his feedback, a good alternative option and a worthy mentor. Lots of fans want him back on TV next season too

Edmonton is one of the most deprived areas of the U.K. It is also perhaps the most ethnically diverse and community spirited. Since busking in Edmonton I have had children dancing, pensioners singing along, people taking videos and selfies and nothing but support, smiles and good will from everyone who has heard me playing. We have had many troubles in Edmonton....particularly gang-related murders, but people here strive to live in harmony, and amidst the struggles of their day to day living they seem to enjoy my busking more than those at Covent Garden, Piccadilly Square, the London Underground and all across the U.K. and places I have played over the globe. I generally believe that my attitude and music contributes to the joy and beauty of this very special town. I have been stabbbed, struggled through mental illness and foster care, but have been a youth worker for the twenty years I have lived in Edmonton and I merely want to give something to these wonderful people and help my own journey a little in an honest positive way.

There are so many people who need a safe place to sleep and we have perfectly good places fro them to stay if they were made accessible and secure.

There are already a number of issues with the entrance to erin court that have been reported to genesis ha. General public are using this area to urinate as well as using it as a convenient rubbish tip. Erin court residents feel that by relocating the bus stop directly in front of our entrance, it will be used for more of these undesirable activities. Furthermore, we are extemely concerned about our safety and security if plans to move this bus stop go ahead. It will be impossible to determine (especially late at night) who will be legitimately waiting for a bus and who might use this as an opportunity to loiter and unlawfully gain access into erin court, thus creating a risk of burglary or assault to the residents of erin court

It is important as people need to be educated how to treat the world around us.

Because of their height, a small child, when waiting in line for their summer treat, will often be subjected to several minutes of poisonous gas from a diesel or petrol engine. Ice-cream vans tend to station themselves in parks and near playgrounds, meaning the health and safety of all children in the vicinity is compromised. We wouldn't allow a lorry to park next to a group of children and keep their engine running for hours on end, so why do we accept it from an ice-cream van? Several boroughs already insist on using electric vehicles to sell ice-cream in parks. We are calling for a blanket ban of diesel powered ice-cream vans in all parks and outside our homes. This is better for the whole community, including those selling those delicious 99s.
