People in small towns and villages need internet just as much as people in big towns and cities. Decent broadband connection is essential for everything from paying bills to running businesses. But for some places in the UK, the internet speed is either painfully slow or non-existent. It's time the government stepped up and fulfilled it's promise of decent broadband for everyone.

Starbucks have never paid full tax - in case you hadn't noticed, tax-dodging is losing our economy over £8 billion a year in lost revenue. Our infrastructure including hospitals, police force & schools are at breaking point following drastic cuts to their funding by our Conservative government. We, the residents of Hythe do not want another tax-dodging big business to do business in our town, taking custom from the owners of our unique independent (tax paying) cafes. Hythe is sought after place to live BECAUSE it has a unique high street. Uglyfying our high street will also effect local property businesses as it will become a less attractive place to live. We do not want to become a bog standard, ugly high town with generic, plasticky shops like every other. Where is it all going to stop?

The staff car park as it stands now is secluded and unsafe. As a young worker in Meadowhal myself, I personally do not feel safe walking from the staff car park to my store - which is on the far side of Meadowhall - early in the morning or late a night when there is next to nobody about. Having worked in Meadowhall for almost two years I have heard these issues brought up on numerous occasions however Meadowhall choose to ignore them. Staff that park in 'customer' car parks are issued with £95 fines, to which they are threatened with court action until paid, and I have seen many of this fines stuck on cars recently proving how many members of staff choose to take this risk as they do not wish to risk parking in the staff car park. That being said, the staff car park itself is unfinished and has caused damage to staff's cars in the past. If a person's safety isn't enough, risk putting your car in there and risk creating a large bill at the garage. This is disgraceful and it needs to change now!

Gas extraction firms plan to drill several shale gas wells in North Yorkshire in the next five years, after being handed the rights to explore using the controversial hydraulic fracturing process across the county by the national government. The Joint Waste and Mineral Plan for North Yorkshire is currently being negotiated by City of York Council, North Yorkshire County Council and the North Yorkshire Moors National Park authority. This plan, when enacted, will outline how each of these areas deal with a host of topics including recycling provision, waste management, as well as gas and mineral extraction. Due to national laws and regulation City of York Council, North Yorkshire County Council and North Yorkshire Moors National Park are not allowed to exclude gas drilling completely within their territories, but the the local authorities have influence to set conditions to protect residents and the outstanding countryside of North Yorkshire from the impact of the gas industry.

This Will: Save the council an estimated £4 million pounds to spend on schools ect Stop the environmental destruction of an essential tidal stretch of the Thames Save the valuable kingfisher and heron nesting sites Stop the reduction of the size Watermans park to make way for a car Park Save a valued community of local residents Reduce the gentrification of a once diverse area of London This thriving community of Brentford residents have lived and worked in this area for up to 20 years.

We are not against change and want to be included in the regeneration of the area. These boats are our homes, much loved and in some cases Nationally reconsidered historic vessels with some of them making valuable contributions to one or both war efforts. Please help us convince the council to adopt our low cost, low environmentally impacting solution and save our much loved homes.

All Hallows Hall (AHH), a vibrant community hub in Easton in Bristol, is under threat from closure from it's current owner. That's why we are calling on the Bristol City Council to support our application to turn All Hallows Hall into a community asset and thereby protect it for use by the community. Without this protection, All Hallows Hall, a fantastic Grade 2 listed building, risks being turned into flats, or lost completely. Run by volunteers, the site has been transformed over four years from a derelict eyesore to become a venue that has had 25,000 people visit to enjoy live music, theatre, circus performances, markets, art installations, and more. It's a venue that has become a space for community groups to run clubs and activities - from Aikido to choirs. "I am just one of thousands that has been positively effected by the hall presence. It has given me a place to offer inner city young adults free drama training through Tank Theatre and the now legendary M.C.Beth performances. And it continues to support these and other emerging artists by offering us free and cheap rehearsal spaces. It is vital and the only space in Easton where Theatre and Circus can thrive." Dave Lovatt, Theatre Director Please help us save this beautiful building that provides a vital community resource for the future use of the people of Easton and Bristol. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
