He said in a meeting with regard to people living with disabilities "Are we still letting these mongols have sex with each other?" This remark comes from this man's MIND and someone who thinks that way should not be allowed to hold any public office. When I saw this on Facebook I was shocked to the core. I'm concerned about the people living with disabilities who this man is supposed to serve. How can he serve them as a Mayor or Councillor when he thinks like this, surely he'll put them right at the bottom of the pile.

Ms Hopkins' refreshing and blunt honesty about how the poor and disabled people of our great country is an eye opener, all she has done is speak the truth, and honesty is sorely lacking in the House of Commons. Labour needs people of this calibre who will fight tooth and nail for what they believe in, who hold issues passionately close to their heart and are not afraid to voice them as loudly as possible. We need more people like Deborah in Parliament, Representatives who place the needs and suffering of their constituents before personal ambition and greed.

Barbara Driver’s comments, which came during the meeting about plans to build 30,000 homes in Tewkesbury, Cheltenham and Gloucester, prompted outrage on Wednesday and were described as “repulsive” and “atrocious” by Cheltenham Borough Council Peter Jeffries. The Conservative councillor later apologised for the remark, which compared the "inevitability" of the building of new houses in the area with rape, “There is a saying and I am going to say it: When rape is inevitable, lie back and enjoy it,” she told the meeting. In an open letter to Cheltenham Borough Council, addressed to the Mayor, Councillor Wendy Flynn, Ms Driver said she realised her remark was “completely inappropriate and thoughtless and should not have been said”.The letter read: “I am therefore writing an open letter to the council to offer my sincere apologies for the comment I made.“As an elected member of the council I believe that on this occasion I have fallen short of the high standards expected of a councillor and for that I am deeply sorry and I wish to place my apology on record through this letter.” Her remark was criticised by Karen Clarke, from the Gloucestershire Rape and Sexual Abuse Centre (GRASAC), who described it as “quite shocking”."Rape has a devastating impact and there's no possibility that anyone could ever lie back and enjoy it,” she told the BBC."When people in positions of power make throw away and flippant comments like this it perpetuates the myths around rape."Someone in a position of authority should know better. Apologies are not enough."

Westminster is fast losing the respect and authority of the British people, This they must regain. We can no longer afford drunkenness and inappropriate behavior to be allowed in the Houses, and while they carry out their many other duties.

If this boycott goes ahead, it will mean that many third year students will suffer delays to their graduations, as well the very real possibility that they could miss out on places in graduate schemes, Masters etc. Previous attempts at striking about pay have failed. They are willing to go without pay as they have done before in order to prove their seriousness. Our lecturers do not wish to hinder our advancements but it is something that they feel is necessary in order to achieve their goal of fair pay, and students support them in this. However it's the students that will suffer the most if this goes ahead. You and this University have the ability to end that suffering. Please try and negotiate. Thank You.

There is a double standard which sets MP's and their cronies above the law and lets them commit crime with impunity.

- To save the country money in these times of austerity. The accommodation will be less of a financial burden on taxpayers than accidentally claimed expenses for second homes. - MP's will be accommodated more in line with the level of accommodation that most of their constituents who they represent enjoy. - It will display a new level of transparency which the government desperately needs. - It will really show that MP's and the people they represent really are 'in it together'. - The housing should be within close proximity to the Houses of Commons to enable MP's to make best use of their valuable time.

If I had scammed £90,718 off the DWP, I would be in jail. Why is this not the case for Maria Miller who stole our taxes in yet another expenses scandal? Mr Cameron, the message you are putting out is 'one rule for one and a different rule for the other'. It's like you're telling your MP's 'it's okay as long as you don't get caught'. I thought no one was meant to be above the law? Also, she only has to pay £5000 back? We, the people, want justice.

This is a totally unnecessary decision and shows the Government does not value hard working nurses and health care support workers and are relying on their good nature and dedication to just accept it. A recent pay review body recommendation to increase MP’s salaries was accepted but then it was MP’s voting for their own pay increase! Please sign up to our petition so the Government knows how bitter a pill they are trying to make us swallow.

To simply say sorry is not good enough.

There are seven petitions going through the direct-gov organisation at the moment but it seems that only one of them has any serious numbers of supporters. As I have been watching the power of 38 Degrees for some time I believe that it is only via this route that a serious petition to this end will come about.

As I suffered Polio at the age of 2yrs back in 1953 I had no ideal that it would return and bite for a second time in later life, my Dr has not got a clue about it and I have given him leaflets etc telling him but all he says is do more walking, I wish that I could its not through lack of trying my one good leg is worn out and needs a new knee while my other shorter leg has no joint movement and lack of muscle owing to the Polio all them years ago,
