  • Andy Burnham: Create a Levy for Free Access to Justice
    Justice is being denied to the people of Greater Manchester. Legal aid no longer covers most cases involving housing, welfare, debt, immigration or medical negligence. Between 2005 and 2015, the number of not-for-profit legal advice centres in the country fell from 2,226 to 1,462[1]. Greater Manchester went from having nine law centres across our ten boroughs to only having two. But, our ever-defiant community refused to accept this, and together we fought to restore and improve access to justice for people in poverty and vulnerability. It is thanks to this collective effort that the Greater Manchester Law Centre opened its doors in Moss Side last year, and we are making great strides to meet the advice and representation needs of those who need it most. We are fighting, together, for free access to justice. But we need more than words and encouragement, and we welcome your support for making similar legal services available across Greater Manchester. This is Manchester, and we do things differently here. Let’s lead the way and try something new, and implement the idea we dreamed up together. To survive, we need to be creative. Let’s fund our free, face-to-face, high quality legal advice and professional legal representation by imposing a levy on commercial law firms. Yours sincerely, Roz Burgin, Development Worker John Nicholson, Chair Norma Turner, Management Committee And community supporters of GMLC ** See media coverage of this open letter** Solicitors Journal: http://bit.ly/2sXV16h Law Society Gazette: http://bit.ly/2sSVMNg Our press release: http://bit.ly/2ugOGXm [1] http://www.fabians.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Access-to-Justice_final_web.pdf

  • Honour your promise to the surviving families of the Grenfell Towers tragedy.
    Upon learning that families who decline to move away from their community & their lives will be declared - "intentionally homeless!" For the families this now means - withdrawal of promised support; loss of housing rights position; & most shockingly - potential loss of custody of their children!!! This is no way to treat British citizens, so I implore anyone who reads this petition, to sign it & send it across their networks, in order to help the traumatised families. Lets make sure that the lessons of past tragedies aren't repeated here; not now, not ever!!! Thank you.

  • Encourage Transport Scotland to rethink the A96 dualling options from Brodie to Forres.
    Transport Scotland has made available its proposed routes for the A96 dual carriageway from Hardmuir to Fochabers. The purple route P1 is shown to go directly through Macbeth's Hillock - a site that legend has it is where Macbeth and Banquo met the witches who told them their fate. It then travels east through Brodie Home Farm, immediately adjacent to Brodie Castle (a Scottish Tourist Board four star and Gold Green Tourism Award Winner property), owned and managed by the National Trust for Scotland who describe it as the "Ancestral home of Clan Brodie, with an outstanding art collection and magnificent library". The route then moves north and skims along the edge of Culbin Forest,  an area designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). The Forestry Commission notes that "The diverse landscape and unusual species here have achieved national and international recognition and are protected by law".  The RSPB calls it "A breathtaking coastal reserve, full of wildlife". It then crosses the Moray Coastal Trail which allows locals and tourists alike to enjoy "a coastline alive with wildlife that would be the envy of many other regions in Britain". What is the value placed on the detrimental impact to so many of the wonderful historical assets of this area? Quite apart from the significant environmental and ecological delights that this option destroys, it cuts the close-knit rural communities of Dyke, Kintessack, Moy and Loanhead right down the middle. All the children from this area go to school in Dyke Village School, and the Village Hall and Church are the epicentres of activity for this community. It destroys the homes of people who have lived in this community their whole lives and obliterates the tranquility and beauty of those who remain there. What is the value placed on the destruction of a community? This is an area frequented by cyclists, bird watchers, anglers, horse-riders and walkers with its wide network of quiet, beautiful roads and tracks. It is a key attraction for tourists. What is the value placed on the destruction of our local economy, with tourism, self-catering accommodation, farming and a wealth of local businesses? From a practical point of view, the proposed route crosses, not once, but at least twice, the Gas Pipeline and Storage System that runs from Inverness to RAF Lossiemouth. It spends a significant amount of time in areas designated as medium or high risk of flooding on the SEPA flood maps. What is the cost of this proposed route through land patently unsuitable for anything other than birds, animals, people and water? Please lend your support to this petition asking Transport Scotland to reconsider it's proposal and exclude this as a potential route for the A96 dual carriageway.

  • To increase fire fighters wages
    This is important for the safety of our country . The fire services should have reasonable pay rises ( they shouldn't have to take on second jobs to earn a decent income) . If you work in a office you can earn 40 to 50 grand a year these people are saving lifes and risking theirs.

  • Hold Tommy Robinson (EDL) accountable
    Considering the UK has seen a number of terror attacks over the weeks, it is imperative hate preachers like Tommy who have a history of anti muslim behaviour are stopped immediately. Social media is awash with numerous examples of Tommy Robinsons anti muslim views. Such views could have motivated the attack in Finsbury Park and need to be investigated urgently to avoid a repeat. Far right extremism is on the rise and innocent Muslims are suffering. Tommy has said the Mosque near to where people were mown down created 'Radical Jihadists' and was promoting 'hate and segregation'. This will create further fear and hatred of Muslims and may motivate radicals to act against Muslims by launching further attacks. For the betterment of community relations this needs to be investigated urgently.

  • Votes at 16
    Many people are disappointed with the result of the BREXIT vote. Many 16-17 year olds wanted a job abroad, and now may not get them. When Scotland had the independence referendum, they alowed 16-17 year olds to vote. The turnout was greater than the 18-24 year old turnout.

  • Firefighters Pay Rise
    Firefighters have suffered the longest period of pay restraint in living memory. Firefighters put their life on the line and their pay is nowhere near good enough for the job they do, and do so well.

  • Grenfell Memorial Park
    It's important because it's where people lived and died so for anything else to be raised on that land would be disrespecting the deceased and the survivors. Also, it would be a reminder for the authorities of their neglected responsibilities that led to this avoidable tragedy.

  • Build a Memorial On The Grenfell Tower Land When It's Demolished.
    It is important because no person or company should make money out of the death of all the people who died or have been displaced, and any housing that is build should be for the people who once lived in Grenfell.
