• Plastic Applicators
    The planet has enough damage already from plastic, plastic applicators are not biodegradable and contain body secretions that don't belong in the earth or in our oceans. Tampax should never have switched to plastic. Bring back the cardboard and paper!! Our wildlife and ocean life do not need it and neither do we!!!

  • UK Gov should protect its citizens from large company shyster practices
    Because UK citizens are being duped by some unscrupulous big companies that offer discounts for subsequent purchases without disclosing to their customers the consequences of accepting the discount. For example Hermes will offer a discount to welcome you as a new customer but they do not say that if you apply for the discount you will have to give your bank details to a third party who will take £15 from your account each month and make you a member of a club which claims to give you discounts or money back for other card purchasers. Many people claim to have no knowledge of signing up to a club and do not realise that every month money has been taken out of their account and when they do it is not always easy to cancel. Make our elected MPs stamp out these practices and ensure that companies make it clear to their customers the consequences of customers accepting any offer. There are many stories on the internet about people losing money which you only search for when you have fallen for the same trick.

  • Prevent motorbikes on footpaths in parks
    It is illegal to ride motorbikes along public footpaths, but I have seen this done repeatedly. Many toddlers and young children use the New River Walk and Astey's Playground to play, nap, and feed ducks. They could be injured. As a local parent, I have become afraid to let my child out of the pushchair.

  • Reduce “rat running” along Kidbrooke Gardens
    Over the last 10 years there has been a significant increase in traffic along Kidbrooke Gardens/South Row. Up to 8000 vehicles a day are using this minor residential road, resulting in increased air and noise pollution for local residents. The high traffic volumes make it dangerous for pedestrians and other road users. As the only East/West routes south of the A2/north of the A20, it is vital that the council provides a safe, healthy street to encourage families to choose “active” travel options when taking their kids to one of the 10+ schools within 1mile radius.

  • More help for the vulnerable the elderly and young
    I have been trying to look after my son who is now 29 he has autism and mental health issues. I have tried for the last five years to access him some help, since he was discharged from hospital. I have complained to social service's, local MP, police and mental health services. It seems they are not and don't want to work together to help people like my son. There are policy's in place saying that the above services are there to help by working together but as I've experienced there is a small majority of the service's that do try. I've even experienced a social worker who tried to help actually stand in his own council office and say that "the people in this office are trying to ignore the issues so they don't have to deal with them" whilst on the phone to me. The police turn up every time my son has an episode and say it's down to social services. Social services have now refused to speak to me due to my son being over 18. The MP has tried for the last two years to try and help, after a dozen letter's and numerous requests to have a meeting, we still haven't met. There are a lot of people whom have no family or friends to support them and are just left with no help and this is where the crisis grows and people either end up on the streets or arrested for behaviour which is more an illness. Our government has a duty of care through the services they provide.

  • Start a Space Cadet Force
    This will help young people to develop important life skills and pride in themselves, but through a non-military pathway. It will encourage them to look to the future and strive for excellence in a broad range of learning challenges. It will create new relationships as "esprit de corps" develops, and give participants confidence through a "start in life" that so many need in our uncertain world.

  • Dennistoun parking permits
    It is important for everyone in the Glasgow city council to understand, that you are about to impose an extra financial burden onto some of the most poorly paid people in the United kingdom. I live in dennistoun and I just manage to pay my way, and to ask for £85 per year to park outside my home is just another insult. I pay my council tax and I get less every year for my hard earned. This stealth tax may work in the West end where people can afford this. Make the permits affordable for the good residents.

  • Child Poverty- lets put an end to holiday hunger
    Hungry children feel anxious and they don't know why. During the school holidays, children who are entitled to free school meals are going hungry and experiencing social isolation because their parents can't afford to buy food or take them out.

  • Stop selling plastic water bottles
    After watching the BBC programme on war on plastic and working in a school myself, I see plastic water bottles thrown around the school premises. We need to stop the demand for these bottles to be made in the first place, where better to start than in education.

  • Continue the Dolly Parton Imagination Library in Doncaster
    Over the last 4.5years my eldest son has received some fantastic books from the Dolly Parton Imagination Library. This has not only enhanced his love of books and stories but has encouraged him to begin to learn to read before starting school. As a parent, I think it is a great shame that such a wonderful scheme that has enabled many children to access literature, is set to close in September. Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library of United Kingdom is a free book gifting organisation devoted to inspiring a love of reading in the hearts of children everywhere. Each month, enrolled children receive a high quality, age appropriate book in the post, free of charge. Children receive books from birth to age five. This means my other children will never know the joy of these free monthly books, or get to share the joy of reading future wonderful stories with parents and grandparents alike. This will mean families across Doncaster will not have future access to books that land on their door step every month.
