The Chelsea Farmers Market is one of the few remaining outdoor independent trading locations in the heart of Chelsea reflecting the great history that made the Kings Road and surrounding areas a place individual to the rest of London, a thriving village. Any plan to demolish this would remove a heart of the community that is different from any where else in Chelsea. Only this site offers a unique outdoor experience to diners and shoppers. The Kings Road has increasingly become like any other High Street in England, however The Chelsea Farmers Market offers an escape from this by providing relaxed outdoor experience all year round to the residents and visitors of Chelsea. It's a unique destination enjoyed by all walks of life. The loss of The Chelsea Farmers Market would be another nail in the coffin for independent traders and individual community space for the sake of the commercial and financial gain of the minority. We need the power of the local residents, visitors and Londoners to help prevent this change to an area that will be demolished and never be re-created. Your signature can help preserve one of the few existing open air trading spaces, save jobs and prevent another concrete jungle from being developed.

Please help to save the public space on the South Bank. The controversial Garden Bridge is not needed here. Public money will be wasted for a project the campaign for which was never properly and openly conducted by the previous mayor. This will cost at least 60 million pounds in public money (cost estimates are rising all the time) and will ruin the currently beautiful views from Hungerford Bridge at Embankment towards St Paul's Cathedral. At least 30 beautiful mature trees along the South Bank Thames walkway will be cut down, and the present lovely long walkway, with its existing green open space, will be reduced.

Belgravia residents do not want this new development. As well as the timber yard, by threatening to relocate locally owned independent retailers, Grosvenor’s plans will put local jobs, the vibrant local economy and Belgravia’s heritage at risk.

The safety of our children

This morning when I was taking my son to school a lady knocked him with her bike seat and made him cry. When I pointed the fact out to her she refused my request to apologise to him and rode off. Having seen this another lady asked me if I was going to report her to which I replied that I probably wouldn't and she said that the same had happened to her child recently. After talking to a few people I now realise how dangerous this alleyway is. Cyclists use it a a short cut and ride at a speed that would make it very hard to prevent a collision which could potentially have serious consequences.. At school times the alley is used by a number of parents and children who constantly try to avoid the dangers but in reality children do not understand and are unpredictable. I feel that it is only a matter of time until an injury occurs and by cyclists dismounting and adding maybe one minute maximum to their journey to work this risk could be eliminated. If they had children themselves surely they would understand this?

Cement batching can cause harmful emissions. Whilst we understand that every effort is being made to reduce the risk, the plant is extremely close to the village of Cwrtnewydd and an error could easily lead to the harmful emissions entering the air. Not only that, the lorries travelling to the quarry are already causing a hazard on the narrow lanes, therefore adding to that traffic will exacerbate the situation.

Shotts Royal Bank of Scotland Branch has been part of the high Street for over forty years, now it is due for closure in August which will cause hardship and inconvenience for many people. This is happening less than 2 years after the Airdrie Savings Bank closed. The alternatives given for bank transactions are the Post Office , which is hard pushed dealing with its own matters, to travelling to Wishaw or Whitburn branches, which will mean expensive bus fares for the majority of people.Now Shotts high street is reduced to an increasing string of fast food outlets,which is very sad. Please sign this petition and share.

It is an area of natural beauty with a lot to offer. The falls are impressive and evocative. But can not be appreciated fully due to the present difficulties with access. The forest walks have stunning views and great potential which is yet to be realised.

Enactment of such a bill runs counter to the commitment by the current government to the active preservation and enrichment of our diverse historic environment, as it will arguably severely undermine already denuded curatorial provision within the current planning system, on a local and national level. At its worst, the bill will ultimately sacrifice our joint historical and ecological resources in the name of short term profit and speculative economic stimulus, encouraging large scale development without adequately making provision for assessment of the presence of, and likely impact upon, known, as well as currently unknown, archaeological and ecological resources to hand. This can, and almost certainly will, lead to the wholesale destruction of important archaeological and ecological resources, with no regard to the potential benefit they offer to the wider academic and communal knowledge base relating to our shared historic environment, not to mention the long term economic potential such resources may offer to the nation as a whole and local communities alike. On the contrary, in most cases, this will undeniably result in their absolute and irrevocable destruction, to the detriment of all.

The old West Ham ground is set to become 800 luxury flats. We are being told that they will be affordable but "affordable" housing never actually is in anyone's budget but the rich. Upton Park is already hugely overcrowded with services pushed to breaking point. The West Ham site being reinvented is a great chance for the council to build more services for local people and take some pressure off of existing ones. One measly community centre being built on the site is not good enough when 800 more families will be moving in to the site.

To bring some life to a dated and tired High Street

George V Park is the only public park in the New Town area. It is an oasis of greenness, nature and tranquility in the heart of the city. Now RBS is selling its office on Dundas Street/Eyre Place for redevelopment into residential blocks and retail units. On paper this is a good thing. More people should have the chance to live, work and play in our neighbourhood. However in their current form the plans for the site are awful. Some of the proposed blocks are 8 stories tall, dwarfing anything else nearby. They will plunge George V Park and surrounding streets into the shade forever. A proposed access road will run dangerously close to where children play. Trees and green space will be lost. The original plans looked promising. But they've changed. For the worse. George V Park isn't big. It isn't even especially beautiful. But it's a wonderful, unique space where people of all ages can relax, breathe and play. And it's all we've got. Over the years so much work has been done to nurture and protect this place. Don't let it be ruined for a short-term profit. The Dundas Street site will, and should, be developed. But that must be balanced with the need to protect what makes the area worth living in in the first place. Recent development elsewhere in Edinburgh show just how badly things can go wrong. But they also show how effective people power can be. With your help we can make sure that this development is in the best interests of residents, both present and future. Please sign our petition and help make sure that Edinburgh Council does not approve these plans in their current form. Thank you.
