• Create a national register of homeless deaths in Scotland
    This unified register would allow the lives of homeless people to be remembered and valued, with the circumstances of their deaths investigated and recorded, to prevent these personal tragedies from being repeated across Scotland.

  • Withdraw Policy Exchange's charitable status.
    It is meant to be a non partisan educational charity for the general public. In reality it is a money making and ego boosting scheme for conservative party supporters. One of it’s directors stood as a conservative candidate at the 2015 and 2017 general elections. Others have close ties to the conservative party. Several employees take salaries in excess of £80k – one takes a salary of £150-160k (according to filed accounts for last year). Donations from Just Giving gratefully received, according to the website. Worryingly, Boris Johnson and his newly formed cabinet make policy decisions based on Policy Exchange studies. Ex-employees of fossil fuel and energy companies, for example, produce environmental policy reports for Policy Exchange who then influence government! The charitable status of Policy Exchange should be withdrawn as it does not operate in a non partisan way or in the general public's interest.

  • Fund mental health instead of Brexit adverts
    There are people whose lives are suffering because they are not getting the provision they need, even though there are enough professionals that could be employed to carry out this work and also to make medications more affordable and more available. It is unethical to spend £100 million of the public's money on advertising something that is unquestionably controversial.

  • Overcharging
    At a time when wages are not keeping up with rising prices, many are struggling to survive financially each month, food, fuel and other essentials are costing more each week(whatever politicians tell us -I bet not many of them do the food shopping!!) to have this extra money in our pockets and not in the grasping electricity company coffers is essential. Lets raise the issue loudly to them to clean up their act.

  • Stop anonymously funded organisations being given air-time
    Many so-called 'independent' organisations are funded by companies or individuals with their own specific financial, social or political agendas, and exist largely to promulgate those opinions. Giving air-time to them legitimises sometimes extreme or scientifically unsound views, and has no place in a true democracy.

  • Speed limit in St Mary Cray High Street
    I believe that St Mary Cray High Street poses a danger to pedestrians as well as wild life in the river walk which runs along it. The sleeping police man are not slowing down traffic and measures have to be taken to ensure safety of people using the street. The High street has a primary school, three nurseries, a Park with a playground which means a high number of parents with young children, often toddlers and prams walk along the pavement. This is a dangerous undertaking as the pavement is very narrow in places and drivers speed past pedestrians way above the 20 mile speed limit. I asked one of the bus drivers whether he was aware of this speed limit and he was not. There is a small traffic sign as one turns into the High Street but it is in the round about and barely visible. The traffic on the road has tripled recently as a large number of new houses and flats have been built along the street. Also, drivers use it as a rat run to avoid traffic lights on the main road (A224). When it rains, speeding cars splash dirty water across the pavements with pedestrians having to jump out of the way. Often, rather than slowing down to let oncoming buses pass, drivers go onto the pavement. In short, walking along the High Street pedestrians often endanger their children’s safety.

  • Stop pheasant rearing in ancient woodland
    Bringing in extra food for the birds adds to the problem destroying the biodiversity of woodland and making it virtually impossible for the ground flora to return

  • Melton Borough Council: Join Plantlife's Road Verge Campaign!
    Plantlife helps councils manage their verges and greens for native wild flowers and wildlife. Increasingly, local authorities are opting to save money on mowing/strimming by seeding verges and other grassed areas with native plants that are good for struggling wildlife species from butterflies and bees to hedgehogs and voles. These wildlife managed areas are then encouraged to grow naturally and only cut once a year in late Autumn. MBC has debated the climate crisis - now let's encourage them to make a positive start in the next financial year and help turn bare, mown road verges into blooming wild flower meadows!
