London is a huge city which could spread out for many miles more if allowed to. The Green Belt was created to allow Londoners to have some fresh air and nature, trees, plants and animals which is vital for our mental and physical health. London does not need to be any bigger than it already is.

Constant flow of children in area. The road serves 3 Primary Schools and 2 High schools. The present speed ramps do not deter vehicles to slow down in fact the opposite. A 7.5 ton weight limit would stop lorries and buses and Chicanes would reduce the speed of all other vehicles

1. Ancient woodland is irreplaceable. Once it's gone, its gone forever. It cannot be recreated. 2. Ancient woods are our richest land-based habitat. They have had relatively little disturbance over the centuries, which has allowed them to develop complex and diverse ecological communities of plants and animals. 3. Ancient woods are of archaeological importance, providing living records of the past and, are also some of our most beautiful places to visit. 4. Ancient woodland covers just two per cent of the UK and much of it is highly fragmented. 5. 256 species of conservation concern live in ancient woodland.

Rosenau Crescent and many areas of Wandsworth where this pavement and kerbstone replacement "work" is being done by council contractors are handsome streets where residents care about their environment and work hard to make it look good. Many are designated Conservation Areas. Pride in one's surroundings is an important part of being a healthy human being. The council is destroying this important part of residents' lives and has not bothered to reply to many letters and emails of complaint over several months. There is no accountable democracy here, only institutionalised vandalism and blatant disregard for the electorate. Nor is the council's "long-term solution" to tree roots disturbing the paving effective. Within several months of laying tarmac the pavements are so uneven that the trip hazard is worse than ever. We have spoken to one of Britain's top arborialists who says the trees are unsuitable for the site and that, in any case, they need replacing at their age. We need the council to replant with appropriate types of tree and replace the pavements as they were. We have asked repeatedly over many months where Rosenau Crescent's historic granite kerbstones have been taken and had no response from Wandsworth Council. Council contractors are still taking these away.

For decades the willow tree in the school playground has provided shelter and a play area for children, creating happy memories and establishing itself as an iconic feature of the school environment. When the news broke about its impending destruction, children in the playground ran to the tree, hugging it and begging for it to be saved. It is crucial to note that there has been no public consultation at any stage of the planning process, and that the council's response to concerns raised has been dismissive at best. When the original planning application was submitted in December 2013, several trees were highlighted as needing to be removed. Namely, 2 Field Maples and a Lawson Cypress at the site frontage (north); a Sycamore within the central school area and a Sycamore towards the rear (south) boundary. The planning application makes no mention of felling the willow tree, and a subsequent survey found it to be in perfect health and posing no danger whatsover. It is unacceptable to destroy a healthy and much-loved tree in order to expand car parking facilities, and this cannot go unchallenged.

There is no scientific basis that the culling of badgers will help combat the spread of Bovine TB. If anything, it will make the problem worse and the trial culls have been proved both ineffective and inhumane. It is a political tool with which the government perseveres, to appease the farming industry despite overwhelming expert, scientific advice. It seeks to remove an iconic, protected and much loved wild mammal from our landscapes and encourages illegal baiting and cruelty towards this and other wild animals.

The clause which bars other food retailers leaves a toxic legacy by limiting the options: IKEA has now been granted permission for a full-size store and loading bay. IKEA aims to demolish the building and the eco-park which Sainsbury’s gave to the local community. The site is on the main commuter bus route to North Greenwich station. Locals will have to join the traffic mayhem or jostle for space on public transport through IKEA traffic to shop for food. If there is an emergency how will services reach the site on a peninsula surrounded by water on three sides with IKEA at its neck? Instead of 'village living in the city' this is an urban nightmare. Sainsbury's says it is committed to helping communities and sustainability: Lifting the clause will mean that a more suitable retailer than IKEA can move into the neighbourhood creating diverse shopping opportunities for locals without overburdening transport networks and ruining the environment.

Hayslan Fields referred to by many as 'The Green Lung' because it sits in the centre of a densely housed and deprived area. It is a special site crisscrossed by public rights of way and has a wonderful backdrop of the Malvern Hills. (See our web site). As a result of the Blandford Report of 2001 it was protected against development in the Local Plan which designated it a Major Asset as Urban Green Space to Malvern Town for it's contribution to the townscape, biodiversity and informal recreation. It remains protected as part of the emerging South Worcestershire Development Plan (SWDP) but GVA Grimley the huge land agents acting on behalf of Malvern St. James who aquired the 15 acre site as their playing fields but left unused for decades, are trying to change the current status of the site on the SWDP by lodging a formal objection to Worc's County Council and seeking its inclusion as development land. The Local Residents Group (PRG) tried in 2003 to get Village Green Status but were turned down on a technicality. Malvern St James in what was seen by many as an aggressive move, ploughed the field which was by then a beautiful wildflower meadow. Please help us protect this important urban space by signing our petition and writing to Malvern Hills District Council to; Malvern Hills District Council Council House Avenue Road Malvern Worcs.

Harrow Council has proposed two very similar choices for changes to the use of Pinner Park Farm in a recent informal public consultation; luxury housing with a country park that includes a large 'events field'. Whilst the link below offers a chance to share ideas, the two proposals were championed as the only options. http://www.harrow.gov.uk/info/200143/public_notices/1255/pinner_park_farm Converting the farmhouse and building new properties would change the character of the site forever. It is therefore important to consider a wide range of options before a final decision is taken regarding this historically important green belt land with listed buildings, that is also the last working farm in the borough. In summary, Pinner Park Farm is a much loved, important local space. We ask the council to extend the consultation period and publish criteria for alternative proposals so that the best option can be developed and supported. If we collect 2000 signatures by 22 July, the matter has to be considerd by full council. In order for your signature to be valid, please ensure that you work, study, or live in the Borough of Harrow. The address given must be a home, work or study address in the Borough.

The City of London’s proposed dam works on Hampstead Heath will: • Permanently disfigure the Heath • Not eliminate the risk of downstream flooding or loss of life which the City of London claims these proposals will address We call on Camden Council to reject the City of London’s Planning Application. The proposed works specify massive dams, spillways, concrete walls and embankments. They include: • Construction of a huge 40m wide by 5.6m high embankment in the Catchpit Valley; • Construction of a massive 2.5 m dam at end of the Model Boating Pond; • Felling at least 160 trees; • Taking 2 years to complete; • Estimated costs of at least £17 million; • Inevitable and irreversible damage to the Heath and its wildlife. The City’s rationale for these works involves a dubious interpretation of the law. It refers to a computer model of a 1 in 400,000 year “probable maximum flood” and works that would “virtually eliminate” the risk of dam collapse in the event of this flood. The works would contravene the Hampstead Heath Act of 1871 which requires that Hampstead Heath be preserved in its “natural aspect and state”. The City became custodian of the Heath in 1989. It is now making a planning application to Camden Council to carry out the proposed works. You can also help in other ways: • Details of the planning application and your opportunity to object directly to Camden Council can be found on the council's website. • Donations can be made towards legal costs by the Heath & Hampstead Society (a charity) to apply for a judicial review via their website.. • Details of the DamNonsense campaign and alternative proposals to the works can be found at http://www.damnonsense.org.uk/. Please sign this petition and forward the details to your friends, family, colleagues, colleges, trade unions, faith groups and anyone else you can think of!
