The system needs to evolve with every decision we make to make it suited to our time. This is not happening.

If Captain Tom was knighted for his family's effort to raise money for charity then Marcus Rashford should receive the same honour.

This is important as passive smoking is known to cause heart disease and lung cancer! Around 3800 deaths are lost every year in the Uk as a result of passive smoking. This is not okay and something needs to be done to lower down the deaths.

Hopefully this would seriously reduce the amount of litter from fast food restaurants thrown from car windows.

The word 'potential' creates the idea of expectation, and a feeling of failiure, as this expectation is an unreachable goal. No teacher ever writes 'fullfilled potential'. This is very damaging for many children, as it contributes to the very common belief of 'not being good enough', that so prominently found in adulthood. Help us get rid of this toxic word once and for all. For the children.

These collars are designed to control dogs by inflicting pain and discomfort if the dog pulls. They can cause serious physical and emotional damage including whiplash, spinal cord injuries, crushing the trachea and puncturing of the skin. The list is long and considering that there are many less invasive alternatives to addressing this problem it is an outdated and unnecessary practice. In short it is a form of torture which would not be tolerated if inflicted on a child but is lawful when used on a dog who, like a child, is totally dependent on an adult to meet their needs. Most dog owners consider them to be part of the family. Is deliberately inflicting pain on a family member acceptable in our society?

To support our environment, with the intention to divert our hard earned taxes to more important things. Verges and banks would not only look more attractive, they will be as they would've been without human interference, beneficial to pollinators and ultimately to us. Mowing regimes would only be altered, not stopped. This would be a practical alternative to wildflower planting schemes - why do the work when nature has done it for us? Plants just need the chance to establish and would quickly do so. The wildflowers would be on display at their most attractive time for anyone concerned of an eyesore. Weeds = Wildflowers: our ecosystem needs them!

How a child looks is important to them, especially during the teenage years. Some children are already very distressed by the new uniform they are expected to wear and this may negatively impact on their self image and mental health. It will make them stand out when outside of school in the surrounding town, in a way that the current uniform does not.

We urge a huge expansion of the Housing First solution that has proved successful in Finland to house people. This is a once in a generation opportunity to tackle the shame of rough sleeping in the 6th richest country in the world. We call on the government to provide to additional resources for support needs and for additional affordable housing to achieve this and we call on the council to work creatively with government, business and community to use the resources available to ensure offers of long term accommodation to all the rough sleepers currently in hotel and student accommodation” We the undersigned welcome that councils have offered accommodation to all rough sleepers (without conditions) in the pandemic and further welcome the commitment of the Housing committees on preventing a return to the streets and to explore ways of continuing the unconditional offer of shelter for all rough sleepers that is currently available. Housing is a basic right
