The effect of GM crops is very difficult to evaluate as trials can cause unknown effects that may have long term effects. The use of genetically modified crops that include "built in" pesticides can have detrimental effects on the nervous system of Bees who are already in decline. The full effects of GM crops are not known and the British Farming system is not a suitable or safe environment for trials.

The future of Milton Keynes should be more than preserving a few teenage memories of a gloriously tacky icon to consumer culture. Let The Point die an honourable death rather than a slow slide into irrelevance.

Our countryside is under threat from developers who are pushing for green field housing development because it is easier and more profitable than utilising brown field sites. Many rural sites that have been earmarked for development offer no local work, no local school places, no GP surgery places and the housing planned is more "market housing" i.e. 3&4 bedroom with garden and garage. Many rural communities need just a few 1 & 2 bedroom homes as starter homes or for downsizing. We already have plenty of market homes available for purchase and there is no need for more. New housing should be concentrated in towns where there is work and there are shops and scope to expand schools and GP practices etc. Our countryside is our heritage and needs to be protected at all costs so our children and grandchildren can enjoy it as we do.

So we can get more kids of the street and into their local skatepark where you can be active with your friends and in the future there may be some sort of events. Please sign!

Chester city is under attack from untrammelled developments to provide for accommodation for students of Chester University. There is no restrictions, no planning, to ensure an area can accommodate the student numbers and no regard paid to the wishes of residents who live with the problems of being swamped by the numbers of students living within their area, Within the City's residential areas, family housing has been converted into housing of multi occupation for student accommodation . In the Garden Lane area a tipping point has been reached where the student numbers exceed those of residents . Residents have decided to leave the areas because of the problems posed by high student numbers. With the displacement of established residents by students the area has had an increase in low level anti social behaviour including noise pounding out from house, street or gardens at all hours , vandalism of vehicles , private property, and vomiting and urinating on the streets. The arrival of undergraduates has ripped the heart of the Garden Lane area they aren't interested in tending gardens ,or cutting hedges, moreover they keep odd hours and throw late night parties Some streets in the area in which they live now resemble slums, refuse being left in garden and littering the streets, grass uncut and fences broken. An old pensioner in the area said it was like living in a war zone . Properties in the areas have suffered with physical changes,are unkempt and suffer from squalor and dereliction. The streets suffer from permanent 'street blight'. The use of licencing condition and restricting orders on HMO's are necessary to control the area and ensure that existing residence are protected from further degradation in the quality of their lives . What is necessary is however is policies , strategies and action that address the future demand for student accommodation which do not damage the historic heritage of the City Centre and enable residential areas to provide family accommodation not blighted by studentification

We consider that the public toilets are needed: *by the increasing numbers of visitors to the town arriving on foot, by bicycle, bus and car *by local residents and business owners; not all businesses have their own toilets *by the many users of the adjacent Lothian Gardens especially children and their parents and *by people working in the town on a day to day basis as part of their trade.

Because it is our ancestral home and we have a right to live there granted to us by queen Arthur

The current 30mph limit is broken by a significant number of road users in this area who seem to treat the local roads as a race track. We have witnessed multiple collisions, acts of wreckless and dangerous driving and it's time that something was done before somebody is killed. There is a very high volume of pedestrian traffic in this area, particularly school children and quite frankly it's an outrage that nothing is being done to protect these members of the public and local residents.

Our land is being abused by blood sport hunters, and in doing so much of our wildlife is being killed to facilitate this such as the trapping of small mammals which in turn are prey for larger mammals and the beautiful Red kite which is strangely largely absent from Ilkley moor!

Villages across the nation are losing their tranquillity and wildlife is vanishing, such as our barn owls. With more housing in rural areas, this leads to more traffic, more crime, and more vandalism. There are sites that can't be sold and are not being used that can be reconverted to dwellings without tearing up the countryside.
