  • Mental Health First Aid Requirement
    When vulnerable people attend civic offices for meetings this can be stressful, there could be difficulties during the day which means the service user feels low and we need to show them support when it's needed and not to eject them from the building or just call Police/London Ambulance Service. This will extend a duty of care and show equality for those who suffer with mental health issues if they are In a vulnerable position. #MHFirstAid

  • Honour Lassana Bathily - Supreme Human Being.
    This man was an ordinary Muslim shop worker who - in January 2015 - was caught up in the post Charlie Hebdo assault on a Jewish supermarket in Eastern Paris. He showed supreme courage in hiding several Jewish people and then escaping to inform the Police of their situation and the layout of the store. His brave actions undoubtedly saved the lives of these people and also quite possibly those of police officers as well. His story has been mocked by some right wing commentators in France and disbelieved by others. Although his actions are truly heroic he has never claimed himself to be a "Hero".He has never received any recognition from either the French or Israeli governments. This man was incredibly brave and his supreme human action means that his life will probably be in danger from those extremists who would wish to silence him. As such, he deserves full recognition and honour from both the French and Israeli governments.

  • Improve Rural Mobile Phone Coverage
    With all the mobile networks claiming 99% population coverage for mobile phone signal why is only 63% of the UK land mass covered by signal. Over 4500 miles of UK roads have no mobile phone coverage at all. This is not only dangerous but it is stifling development in rural areas and holding back local businesses. The government have an arrangement with the 4 main UK networks to spend £5bn by the end of 2017 to improve this but they have already come up against issues themselves with planning permission, un-co-operative landlords, site access and power to the sites. If we can make enough noise to make them realise how important this is to our communities then they will make the necessary changes needed to push through these plans. If we don't? We can see the 2017 deadline come and go and very little will change apart from 4g coverage in cities getting faster and faster.

  • Protect Our Invaluable School Transport Service
    A year ago my adult sons lost their transport when Salford's mayor decided they did not fit their criteria to keep it. Both my sons are totally dependent for all their needs and now we have to transport them ourselves. This has taken its toll on our health, and now the same mayor is looking to stop children's coaches to get them to their schools. This really cannot happen again. Our children need this service - it's vital to give them a better future. It is also needed for parents, to give them that little bit extra respite so that they can relax and know that their children are in safe hands on the way to and from school. So I am asking all the people who read this: please sign and don't let this happen again. Our children deserve the best.

  • Change Highways laws to permit personal mobility devices
    There have been multiple inventions across the world in the last few years that would alleviate congestion and aid the restricted movement public in this country, if the law were modified. Currently these PMD's do not fit into our highways act simply because they aren't disabled carriages, are motorised and so cannot be driven on the pavements and are too slow for the road networks. I propose that room should be made in the highways act and by extension in the Cyclist part of the Highway code for the use of properly registered and maintained "safe" Personal Mobility Devices. These devices are growing in popularity across the world (I believe at the last count the Segway for example was a legal form of transportation in 30 different countries now) and simply sticking our head in the sand and quoting legislation based on an act that was made in 1835 is putting us at risk of missing the boat on properly regulating the safe and controlled use of these devices. If we were to open the doors on this issue, we could provide laws and rules to do things like prohibit the use of these PMDs inside so that people do not injure themselves riding around the office as I have seen in one Youtube video, but also we can regulate the types of PMD allowed on Cycle lanes for example. Most of these PMDs are limited to 10mph the equivalent of a fast run, so could legitimately use cycle lanes and pavements where it is safe to do so, if the law were changed to allow these vehicles to be treated similarly to bicycles. Furthermore, if these PMDs were treated like a stage between a bicycle and motorbike, they could be taxed and regulated like a discount motorbike. Allowing for further regulation and control, perhaps even licensing to promote safe usage of them too (which is more than is required for Disability "buggies"). Currently Disability "buggies" have 2 classes -4mph they are allowed unrestricted access to public areas, +4mph these vehicles have to have a tax registration and have road legal lighting on them. There is a section in the Highway code for the correct use of these devices, most of them are electric and most of them are often used in public areas with little or no danger to the public. All I am asking, is for a similar allowance for Safe Personal Mobility Devices to be given a fair chance to be used by a public who are crying out for an alternative to sitting in traffic jams all day, whether using public transport or not, or having to get all hot and sweaty cycling to work through fume and traffic clogged streets. Providing a section in the Highways act to classify PMDs would allow for this development. To further my argument, most of these PMDs are also electric and so would be far less polluting than even the most eco-friendly hybrid bus that Boris can sponsor. You ride your electric PMD in to the office in the morning, charge it back up using the company solar panels, then ride it home and plug it back into your solar panels at home, much better than riding a hybrid bus that uses a diesel generator to charge its batteries when it's outside of the congestion zones.

  • The Co-op Supermarket - Stop Selling Newspapers That Spread Racist Disinformation
    The Co-operative Group claim to belive in the importance of "the ethical values of honesty, openness, social responsibility and caring for others", but newspapers like The Daily Mail, The Daily Express, The Sun and The Daily Star state the exact opposite views as The Co-operative say they have got.

  • BAN BAILIFF ACTION ON HOUSEHOLDS WITH CHILDREN UNDER 18 OR RECEIVING BENEFITS
    a) children are traumatised and affected for life when they witness aggressive and immoral bailiff action towards their parents who are generally distraught b) I would like to call for a complete review of the situation concerning the use of bailiffs to create some concrete facts to show the percentage of bailiff action which happens towards households which are on low incomes, have children under 18, and/or are receiving benefits. c) I do not think the tax paying nation would wish the benefits which it funds to be paid into the hands of bailiffs, nor the household goods of the households affected to be given to bailiffs.

  • Help keep a small family together
    This is important because a young newly married couple are scared they will be split but what is the upmost importance of this is that a two year old boy is threatened with the loss of his mother and his little family being torn apart due to the Home office

  • Protect child refugees
    There is a clear risk of child abuse in this arena. Italy has estimated that 4000 child refugees have simply disappeared. In addition to providing a safe final destination we would urge the IDC to consider the physical and psychological impact of placing children in medieval dungeons without access to food or water and without appropriate stimulation and care. The Children's e-hospital has witnessed first hand the treatment of children as young as 7 years in this manner. This is totally unacceptable behaviour by Europe and Britain must do its part in helping these children.

  • Make the price of plastic bags a tax to be given to the NHS
    It happens in other countries and the stores make enough profit already. In Ireland all clothing stores have to supply paper bags for free to customers. Here even clothing stores are now charging for carrier bags.

  • cameron flouting the laws of the land
    The hunting act was passed in 2005 by a majority in Parliament. This law is regularly being broken and the law enforcers/government appear not to be acting to stop this. No hunt has been brought to court having been caught breaking the hunting act law. The police forces in these hunting area, seem to ignore the illegal activities of fox hunters. many illegal acts are caught on video, and yet cases bought before the courts thus far have been by private individuals ie RSPCA/LACS rather than law enforcement officers. Cameron is the Prime Minister of this country and should be seen to enforce these laws, instead of encouraging them. He is a well known fox hunter/supporter himself. There are many comments on Facebook regarding this issue, as the public dont understand why weekly we are learning about yet another illegal hunt, resulting in the death of a wild animal.
