• Publish retractions on the same page as misleading articles.
    During the current referendum campaign, there has been a serious lack of balance in the popular press. Certain papers, notably the Mail, Express and Sun have deliberately mislead a significant proportion of the voting public by printing articles containing what have been proved to be lies, or at best, misrepresentation of the truth.

  • Sack Dominic Peacock
    Dominic Peacock is meant to be representing the public, yet how can the public respect him when he has such blatant disregard for Jo, her grieving family and the hundreds of people who loved and admired her. Jo Cox was what every MP should be: brave, kind, decent and a true humanitarian. Dominic Peacock is the total opposite and really lives up to the latter half of his surname. In one stupid tweet he has demonstrated everything that's wrong with politicians today: there are far too few MPs like Jo Cox and way too many Dominic Peacocks - devoid of compassion and empathy, with massive egos and a total lack of common sense. I for one do not want such a pathetic excuse for a man continuing to serve the public, a role he clearly has no aptitude for and does not deserve.

  • 'Play in Auschwitz'? - No Thanks!
    The Second World War is an important event in human history, it's still recent and the implications and suffering from it are still unfolding. It's something we need to teach our children about, helping them to understand the consequences of hatred and giving power to groups motivated by racism. This 'game' was not designed for educational purposes but is a shameful exploitation of the suffering of millions. It should be shut down immediately, and Google should have an open policy on the development and sale of such 'games'. Genocide is not a game.

  • Members of Parliament to be paid same as lowpaid workers
    So that MPs are not cushioned from the effects of their decisions ,so they fully understand the problems of low income citizens not just in theory but in direct practice,to give them an practical incentive to improve the lives of the UK.s lowpaid worker, to eliminate careerist /opportunist MPs from our Parliament(I.e those who enter parliament for selfish monetary motives ,or as a stepping stone to careers in the media ,business or the eurocracy),to end the divide between the political elite and the working class of people which is so corrosive to our society,and which leaves the way for unscrupulous demagogues, non democratic ideologists,etc to flourish.,and in many countries has led to extreme political violence. Such a measure would purge our parliament of the selfish

  • Samworth Brothers: Reinstate Kumaran Bose
    The government recently introduced the Living Wage, which was long overdue. Employers have been slow and reluctant to adopt the living wage, and some, like Samworth Brothers, are guilty of trying to offset the increased costs involved by sneakily cutting other employee benefits, such as paid breaks, and anti-social hours payments. Employees like Kumaran, who has been a loyal Samworth Brothers employee for 12 years, should not be forced to shoulder the cost of introducing the living wage, and should not have to be afraid of losing their jobs if they stand up for their rights by joining a union.

  • Install Lift access at Hedge End Station
    The station is a main link for our community and at the present time cannot be accessed freely by people with children in prams and wheelchair bound. The nearest station with these facilities is Eastleigh where you have to change trains to get you back to the right side of Hedge End Station. Which involves time and hassle.

  • Save our kids from speeding cars
    I have been emailing for over a year about the large volume of traffic using Kinsale Road as a cut through and the extreme speed that they drive, without any response. Not only is there a large volume of cars but it is also used by large vehicles, vans and delivery drivers who drive fast and aggressively. Not a week goes by that myself or a neighbour doesn't witness road rage on our road. There is currently a new primary school, with capacity for in excess of 271 children, being built at the end of our road. We have heard no plans for traffic calming or how the increased traffic caused by the school will be managed. On the 19th June a car was driving so fast down our road that he crashed and has written off 3 cars and damaged a fourth. He hit one parked car with such force that it moved the car parked behind it, with its hand brake on, over 10 metres backwards! If he had hit any of our residents rather than a car the result would have been fatal. My son was in our car the day before, at the same time of day, helping me to clean it. If we had been in the car when the accident happened only 24 hours later I dread to think what would have happened to us. Sadly this accident didn't come as a surprise to anyone living on our road. This is a tightly knit community with over 20 young children living on the road. I urge you to take action before something terrible happens. Our children have the right to cycle to school safely and to be free to cross the road to play at their friends houses, without fear of speeding traffic.

  • Stop companies like INEOS dumping wastewater from fracking into the sea
    There are concerns that advanced treatment technologies may not be adequate to deal with the levels of dissolved solids in produced water, limiting the ability to treat it on site. A spokesperson from Greenpeace Science Unit states that releasing huge quantities of water loaded with large quantities of metals, radioactivity and chemical components into marine environments is a retrograde step. Campaigners have voiced concerns about the problems, such as earth tremors, caused by the actual fracking process but there has been less focus upon the problems caused by waste water.

  • Postpone the EU Referendum: Voters need neutral information
    It is not true that there is no objective information about the EU referendum. There are many objective and neutral studies which show the real complexity of the issue. Even now, when both sides of the referendum are apparently trying to have a sensible debate in the wake of the killing of Jo Cox MP, the important details are not being explained to the electorate. Please watch this video for an example of the complexity that has been lost in this debate. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USTypBKEd8Y&feature=share

  • Ban Dangerous Pesticides in London
    The use of glyphosates has already been banned or restricted in 8 countries. It is not acceptable that ourselves, our children and the animals we share our community with are being routinely exposed to these chemicals whether we like it or not. This is a matter of great importance for those of us who care about each other's health and the health of our children, our cats, our dogs and all the flora and fauna of this city, of course including our beloved bees.

  • Honour hero pensioner
    Bernard was stabbed as he tried to protect Labour MP Jo Cox. He showed true British spirit in tackling the man with a gun and a knife. So many people today would stand by and let things happen, but this 77 year old pensioner was incredibly brave and had the guts to do something. The George Cross is the highest bravery honour that can be given to non-military personnel. Good people need to be recognised.

  • Ban England fans who humiliated begging children
    Like me you were probably angered and saddened by the disgraceful scenes of English football fans in Lille mocking and humiliating begging children. One seven year old was even reported to have been forced to down a pint of beer in exchange for a handful of coins, others to fight for the 'prize' of small change. It is possible that a number of these children were refugees fleeing the conflict in Syria. Imagine fleeing your homeland, maybe losing contact with your mum and dad and walking across Europe only to be confronted by this cruelty and indignity. Wherever the children are from, the sight of wealthy men getting their entertainment from humiliating children reduced to begging on the streets was repulsive. Like you these scenes made me feel ashamed to be English, ashamed to be a football supporter and powerless to do anything. The French police are unable to stop this behaviour until a crime is committed. However, the Football Association does have it in their power to identify and ban supporters from buying tickets for its games and frequently works with the police to prevent them from travelling abroad. It also has the power to speak out, through its officials, manager and players, against this behaviour which shames us all. But I am writing this two days after the first reports and it has done nothing. There is a precedent to this: earlier in 2016 PSV Eindhoven supporters were caught on camera similarly humiliating people begging in Madrid. The PSV Eindhoven club immediately issued a video and written statement promising to identify and issue banning orders to those involved. You can read their statement here: http://www.psv.nl/english-psv/news/article/gerbrands-these-are-not-our-moral-values-and-ethical-norms.htm There is no reason at all why the English FA can't do the same. By not speaking out and not pursuing those responsible the FA are effectively saying that the experience these children have gone through doesn't matter. Please sign below and let's encourage the FA to send an important signal that we have not lost our compassion and humanity and that bullying children cannot go unpunished. Thank you.
