  • Longer hoses & Taller cranes for Tower Blocks
    My nan has lived on the 12th floor of a Shepherd's Bush Tower block for 40 years. She is 77, if a fire broke out in the flats on her floor or higher she couldn't be reached. She walks with a walker and wouldn't make it down the stairs. Who would save her ??? In light of the Grenfell Fire it's now More important than ever. The firefighters did an Amazing Job but they didn't have the resources to reach the top. This isn't their fault it's due to cuts, those victims had to wait for a crane from Surrey!

  • An Inquest NOT a Public Inquiry for the Grenfell Tower Fires.
    There is much evidence that "the political decision to appoint inquiries into public crises is strongly influenced by short-term blame avoidance considerations, media salience and government popularity." (Reflection in the Shadow of Blame: When Do Politicians Appoint Commissions of Inquiry? - The British Journal of Political Science, Volume 40, Issue 3 July 2010, pp. 613-634). An event such as the Grenfell Tower fire, with its clear implications of Government Minister involvement and possible culpability, requires an inquest which is truly independent from government; not set up and controlled by government. The right to life under Article 2 of the Human Rights Act requires that an effective and proper investigation be carried out into all deaths caused by the state. In particular the right requires that such an investigation must be: * Independent; * Effective; * Prompt; * Open to public scrutiny; and* * Support the participation of the next-of-kin. It is clear from historical evidence that public inquiries do not achieve these requirements. Since the appointment of a public inquiry is typically made by government ministers, events that involve allegations of blame on the part of the relevant minister are less likely to be investigated by a public inquiry

  • End pay freeze for working class heroes
    Their standards of living have been sacrificed to the ideology of austerity The whole world has witnessed their preparedness to sacrifice themselves for others- with no thought for their own safety As a society we should be ashamed of how they have been treated and made an example of. But this hasn't lessened their commitment to serve, to sacrifice and to run towards danger. Lifting the pay freeze is the least we can do.

  • Keep public bowling greens playable in Trafford
    The public bowling greens in the Trafford area and indeed any other area provide an opportunity for people of all ages to participate in a sport which although quite gentle provides valuable exercise and fresh air to people taking part. Generally the game is played by older people and it provides a much needed physical and social activity to a number of people in the community. The greens have not been maintained efficiently and have been treated incorrectly with weed killer and fertiliser. The cutting of them has become very erratic and insufficient. It appears that the people doing the work on the greens are simply gardeners and not green keepers they need to be trained to look after greens correctly to provide greens suitable to play bowls on. Recent cost cutting exercises have resulted in a rapid decline in the condition of the public greens and this needs to be addressed as a matter of urgency.

  • Save our lollipop service in Haydock, St Helens (Grange Valley/ Clipsley Lane)
    Each year, 5,000 children under 16 are seriously injured or die on Britain’s roads. The incident rate for children peaks between 8am and 9am, when they are travelling to school, and again at 3pm when they are on their way home. Without the lollipop/ school crossing patrol service, the community will be put at risk as they try to cross such a busy road at peak times to and from school.

  • We want our recycling services to be better in Wiltshire (don't close down our recycling centres!)
    We love recycling and being an environmentally friendly and thoughtful to our environment. We want our recycling services to allow us to be passionate about our green space and protecting them too. But Wiltshire council do not allow us to recycle plastic other than plastic bottles from our home's. We know that more plastics can be recycled and that this can be cost effective in providing further energy Collections are every week, but recycling is collected once every 2 weeks.We want to recycle more and not have full recycling bins stopping us from recycling more. Wiltshire has two Anaerobic Digesters that are capable of handling contaminated food waste, yet food waste this being transported to Slough.* No food waste is being collected from our home's, despite these Anaerobic Digesters and the high value for money from food waste And today we found out that although Wiltshire council has a limited number of House Hold Recycling Centres that allow recycling of higher grade plastics, they've announced the recycling centre in Tisbury will be shut on 21July 2017 as " it is no longer cost effective to continue to provide this service when Wiltshire residents are now able to recycle the same items at the kerbside". Because the people of Wiltshire our so passionate about recycling we manage to achieve over 50% of waste being recycled. But the above is preventing us from being able to increase that number. Please sign to ask for: 1. recycling of plastics at kerbside 2. weekly recycling collection 3. food waste recycling 4. stop the closure of recycling centres (starting with Tisbury) 5. Wiltshire council to use AD in Westbury not Lakeside near Slough Source: *Tracy Cater of Wiltshire council "Wiltshire Council delivers 50,000 tonnes of non-recycled waste (which includes some food waste) each year to the Lakeside Energy from Waste Facility near Slough. A further 60,000 tonnes per annum is delivered to the Mechanical Biological Treatment facility in Northacre, Westbury"
