• No More UK Parliament
    Nobody set out to create Parliament. It developed naturally out of the daily political needs of the English King and his government. It didn't develop continuously over time neither, but went through short stages of rapid growth. The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland was created in 1801 by the merger of the Kingdoms of Great Britain and Ireland under the Acts of Union. The principle of responsibility to the lower House did not come about until the 19th century. Members of the House of Commons were elected in an out dated electoral system, under which constituencies of vastly different sizes existed. Which is still used today. Parliament is one of the oldest continuous representative assemblies in the world. It is a story that involves battle, war, invasion, several dethronings. We can't keep living in fear of death, famine and despair. Parliament claim cuts are needed to bring this economy back to some stability. Look around you. What positivity can you see that doesn't get overweighed by negativity? Many people in the UK are suffering from depression and other mental health issues. Poverty is rapidly increasing, drug abuse and crime rates are high. We are affected as a consensus. No more shall we have to suffer. There can be an alternative to Parliament. Stand Up. Be heard.

  • Additional Member System
    The current electoral system though producing clear results, does not fully reflect the will of the British people in their electing of members of parliament. The Additional Member System retains the link between Members of Parliament and their constituencies, and also in most cases produces clear majorities; yet having a proportion element allows the people of the United Kingdom to better elect members according to their considered will and purpose.

  • ROOM ROOM
    Some letting agents in London are greedy and deceitful, falsely advertising 'rooms' to rent that do not meet a governmental living standard that was outlined in 2014. Whilst it is the prerogative of landlords and agencies to dictate their prices, they are forcing up the rental market to beyond what is fair and reasonable to tenants by falsely advertising the space available, and lowering living standards, whilst pushing prices up. This has to stop. People who prioritise living in a place they care about, are being marginalised into moving away or settling for poor living standards. This situation is the beginning of another greedy gentrification boom in housing, perpetuated by the same people who caused our 2008 financial crash. There is a Government standard. It should be met by these companies. Lewisham council, and all London councils must impose these standards more strictly.

    This will allow all people who believe in retaining public services,proper funding of education,supporting the NHS, supporting our Police, Fire & Ambulances Services, getting rid of food banks, ridding this country of nuclear weapons, supporting and maintaining a modern non nuclear armed forces and trying to build a country that belongs to the people and not just the rich elite. Anyone who wants the other way can stay in the south and call themselves England or maybe Tory land...the rest of us can move north.

  • Call the Government to account for recent ministerial appointments
    How can these people represent Equality and Justice when they have already contradicted both Justice and Equality? We need to call upon the Government to reconsider the appointment to office of both the Justice Secretary, Michael Gove as he he has already said on The Andrew Marr Show that there is 'no need' for a public inquiry into the Westminster Paedophile Ring or an investigation into the alledged cover-up? And the newly appointed Equality minister, Caroline Dinenageas as she has previously said the state had “no right” to redefine marriage, and she voted against same-sex marriage.

  • We must have Fair Elections
    It is undemocratic and fundamentally unfair for any political party in any election to get 12.7% of the vote and not get the corresponding number of representatives elected. Whatever you personally may think about any party concerned is irrelevant, it is the principle that voting numbers must be represented correctly by the election results, which is at stake here. In this General Election 2015 a party received equal to 4 million votes and got 1 MP, whereas another party got 1.5 million votes and got 56 MPs. For the sake of our fair and democratic society and a decent electoral system, this has to be changed immediately. To have a healthy democracy the current system cannot be left to continue the way it is.

  • Stop the UK Government eroding People's Union rights
    This is important because it is another example of governments eroding people's rights to withdraw their labour when employers don't pay them enough or put in place policies which change their terms and conditions for the worse. Remember people have died, been forcibly relocated and suffered for the rights you have today. Don't let any government take them away from you.

  • Abolish CAFCASS & CSA
    Because millions of fathers are being persecuted and suffering at the hands of these unfit-for-purpose agencies. It is not CAFCASS' place to assess a father's ability to parent, it is his biological right and the CSA have no consideration for a man's ability to pay and should realistically reflect his financial burdens.

  • stop subsidising fossil fuels
    This is massively important. Governments are subsidising these huge fossil powers to tune of billions to get the ever degrading fossil fuels when we can't afford to be. We all know what the consequences are. We need to cut subsidies and subsidise renewable clean energy instead. The reason? Governments subsidise these powerful elites because their reward comes back to them in the form of massive donations to the parties involved. These companies then have a say in policies. Money talks.
