• Find us a place to park our bus so we can end the need for rough sleeping in Dorset
    We are a registered charity. We have converted a bus to accomodate rough sleepers in Weymouth. We have fundraised ourselves and will continue to do so to ensure the running of the bus. We have skilled, experienced and trained volunteers to run the bus. We have the support of the Police and many other local outreach and recovery services. All we need is somewhere to park! Weymouth and Portland borough Council have been unwilling to support us in finding a suitable location through Management committee, so we are presenting it to Full Council.  Please visit www.facebook.com/thebusshelterdorset www.twitter.com/thebusshelterdt to see our journey and keep up to date with news

  • Protect the existing Green Belt within Dudley Metropolitan Borough
    1) To protect Green Belt Countryside, on the urban fringe, and Green Wedges that form wildlife and open space corridors into the urban areas. 2) To protect a valuable recreational resource that Dudley Council have hitherto promoted for public pleasure; its landscape, historic, nature conservation and cultural values. 3) To protect the individuality and distinctive character of the areas and communities 4) To further the strategy of urban regeneration by focussing attention upon renewal of derelict and previously developed brownfield sites. 5) Dudley Borough has sufficient land within the urban area to satisfy its housing and industrial requirements to the year 2036 and beyond. 6) The Green Wedges satisfy the function of preventing the coalescence of former Towns within the Borough. 7) Exceptional circumstances do not exist to warrant the release of Green Belt land for built development. 8) The inappropriate release of Green Belt land would damage the confidence of the public in respect of the designation of Green Belt.

  • Protect our community in Thornton Heath
    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4774564/Boy-15-second-teen-stabbed-death-London-one-day.html Croydon Council secured a £2.8 million investment for Thornton Heath's regeneration scheme which should have extended to Green Lane also. Too many young lives have been taken away due to violent, senseless crimes. More recently in the local area, Jermaine Goupall (age 15) was killed and his untimely death has shocked the neighbourhood. The justice system has no foundation due to lack of evidence to support his murder enquiry. We ask that: 1)There is a greater visible police presence in the local areas 2) permanent CCTV camera`s along Green lane, the parade & surrounding side streets

  • Demand Manchester City Council tackle antisocial parking & littering
    Parking in the centre of Manchester by commuters is causing obstructions, damage, dangers for pedestrians and emergency services and increasing the amount of litter in the area, thrown out of car windows and passsers by. A large amount of construction is occuring in the Ancoats area which is bringing more and more parking issues and litter with it. This issue extends to other areas such as Angel Meadow, Hulme and more.

  • Change the name of Latimer Road station to Grenfell
    The fire at Grenfell tower saw a tragic loss of life, innocent people dying in the most horrific of circumstances. I propose that Latimer Road Underground Station should be renamed in honour of those that have suffered, and to the lessons we must take forward. A permanent renaming would see future generations being aware of the history of the area. London has Monument station which is a testament to those that died in the great fire of London of 1666, an event that shook the city to its core. The current name of Latimer Road is misleading. Latimer Road is located 5 minutes from where the station is, I therefore see no reason why such a change could not come about. The shell Grenfell Tower is located 100m from the station, the train line passes by it . We should not try to block out the horrors but look forward and work together. Efforts are on going to safeguard our families at this time but we must be wise to our choices and make the world a safer place. The renaming to Grenfell would give some permanence those that died in the fire.

  • Do not renew Geoffrey Boycott's employment contract for his recent racist comment
    We need to challenge casual racism, especially from respected figures, such as Geoffrey Boycott. Such attempts at humour, no matter where the offence takes place, undermine efforts to create a more equal society, in which respect is due to all. The BBC should apply its equality policies consistently, irrespective of how long a person has worked for them. The Black and White Minstrel Show, in which white performers appeared with blacked out faces, ended in 1978, because it was felt to be offensive and inconsistent with British values then. The BBC Code of Conduct states in Part 1.3 Treating everyone equally "We don’t tolerate discrimination of any kind, and we speak up when we see it. We’ll take disciplinary action against anyone who crosses the line, including firing them for gross misconduct, if it’s serious."

  • Save Notting Hill police station
    Notting Hill police station serves all of North Kensington and is situated less than a mile from the Grenfell Tower area. It has been, and still is, an important support centre for the residents and communities affected by the most devastating disaster this nation has experienced in decades. By closing the police station and relocating its staff 1.3 miles further south, people in the north of the borough will feel even more alienated. In addition, Portobello Road, the home of the world’s largest antiques market, is a few blocks from the station. It is visited by millions of Londoners and tourists each year. Also, Kensington and Chelsea has the second highest crime rate of all London boroughs. and of the current 73 police stations in London, Notting Hill is the 16th most visited by the public for reporting a crime. As the borough commander, Chief Superintendent Ellie O’Connor, said at a hastily organised public consultation meeting on 15 August: “If ever there is a time when we should be supporting this borough, it is now” – and keeping the only remaining policing station in the north of the borough is critical in achieving this. And what will happen to the old Victorian police station building if it is closed? The Chelsea police station was sold in December 2015 to a tax haven company for £40 million, which within just a few months sold it on to an investment company in the UAE for at least £50 million (the exact sales figure is a secret). That company plans to turn the site into yet another luxury flat development. We foresee a similar destiny for Notting Hill police station if it is sold as planned. Please sign this petition to save Notting Hill police station! In response to government cuts to the Metropolitan Police budget of £600 million since 2010, the number of police stations open to the public in London have already been reduced from 149 to 73. To resolve a further government budget reduction of £400 million during the next four years, it is now proposed to reduce those 73 to 32 – and Notting Hill police station is one of those proposed to be closed down and sold off. The Kensington police station would then be the only remaining police station in the Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. According to the budget cut proposal, all boroughs except Westminster will only retain one police station each. The loss of police stations is to be compensated by the creation of a better police website and by providing each ward with two patrolling ward officers instead of one. However, these will only patrol their wards during office hours. We therefore demand that the RBKC Council lobbies central government for funds to keep Notting Hill police station open.
