The con-trick has been engineered by Recruitment Agencies, whereby the pay-rate they initially promised to their temp/contract worker is greatly reduced due to them using "Umbrella Pay Schemes" who are the middlemen, to pay their employees. Unfair pay Payslips are often confusing and the cost of employer's national insurance and processing of pay is then passed onto the temp/contractor by the "Umbrella Payment Scheme;" all because the Recruitment Agencies don't want to shoulder the burden of being the actual *'employer.' Many contractors/Temps are also being forced into becoming an unlimited company - this action isn't always practical for the temporary worker as many jobs may only be for few days. *THIS NEEDS TO STOP AS IT AFFECTS, NURSES, CONSTRUCTION WORKERS, TEMP OFFICE EMPLOYEES, THE LOW PAID and ALL OF THOSE WHO ARE JUST SURVIVING due to not enough permanent employment or the need to have flexible working hours Thank you kindly I hope to help not just myself, but others in a similar situation. I am employed by a Recruitment Agency and have been contracting via agencies for sometime; each week I am paid by an "Umbrella Pay Scheme" (Recruitment Agencies middleman). This scheme deducts their "margin" of £30.00 weekly from my pay along with *other deductions. Citation: - Under the umbrella company arrangement the burden of paying both workers’ and employers’ National Insurance contributions (NIC) reportedly fell on the workers, leaving some of them worse off by as much as £100 a week. - See more at: http://www.staffingindustry.com/eng/Research-Publications/Daily-News/Wales-Government-to-stop-use-of-umbrella-payroll-companies-on-all-future-construction-projects-32788#sthash.F7AMjyQs.dpuf

Hundreds of thousands of Tenants across the United Kingdom who pay their rent on time and without arrears are being indirectly discriminated against by the credit reference agencies who do not treat tenants rental payments the same as mortgage payments made by the landlords and those who own their own homes. This means that Tenants who later would like to get onto the property ladder often find themselves with a much lower credit score than someone who has paid exactly the same in mortgage payments over the same period of time which puts them at a disadvantage when applying for credit with a bank or building society.

It is important because the British army has killed millions of people in Iraq and taking part in bombing the innocent civilians in many places in the world. Also the UK government is selling arms to the ugly regime of Saudi to supply the Isis terrorists groups with weapons in order to terrorise, kill and control the people in Syria and Iraq and the ISIS killed 100.000 in Syria and Iraq , also 130 people in Paris because the UK and US make them strong with supplying them with weapons al along their best friend Saudi that financed them.

We feel that Donald Trump's unrepentant, persistent verbal attacks on various groups of people based on nationality, religion, race and physical abilities are a huge detriment to RGU. Hate speech must not have a place in academia, in politics or on the world stage. We are confident RGU will agree with the petitioners, and act swiftly. We would also note the brave opposition of Dr David Kennedy to this degree at the time it was bestowed.

Jeff is a teacher and he lives on his boat. However the Canal and River Trust (CRT) is demanding that, just after this coming Christmas, Jeff should leave where he has lived for 6 years. Why? After another boat broke Jeff tiller he was unable to move his boat safely. CRT showed no regard for him not being able to move his boat safety. Instead, they gave him a 6 month license to punish him for what they said was unreasonable overstay. He didn't fully challenge this. Then, after travelling approximately 60 miles in 6 months, and not staying longer than 14 days in any one place , CRT refused him a license. He wanted to pay and they refused his payment. They claimed, in an email to Jeff, that this was because he was 'shuffling'. This is an ambiguous and generally misunderstood term with no legal footing. It is used to describe moving back and forth between the same places on the canal. Jeff was simply turned round to get fuel and turned round again to finish his 60 mile journey. We have tried everything we could for Jeff not to have to go to court. But CRT seems hell bent on in their attempts to evict him from his home. We believe CRT have behaved in a totally appalling manner! We demand Jeff is given his licence back.

We think there are 10.2 million hypothyroid patients in the UK so this is a significant number. The NHS won't prescribe (see research links on Prezi below) anything other than Levothyroxine because Levo costs £26 a year and T3 costs £1300 per patient per year. This is a case of mindset myopia because our research indicates that the long term cost to the NHS and taxpayer is much higher through prescribing extra medication and hospitals referrals required due to associated conditions such as high blood pressure, heart problems and mental illness etc. The lack of interests from GPs has pushed many hypothyroid patients to self-medication because they are fed up of feeling ill. This means patients are taking strong hormones with no supervision. My Prezi contains the full list of links for the research to put my presentation together - http://prezi.com/0ljwmhl87lnv/?utm_campaign=share&utm_medium=copy&rc=ex0share

Not only is bombing a country wrong on moral grounds surely we are doing exactly what ISIS / ISIL want? Not only would we be killing thousands of innocent people but air strikes would also promote division between the West and ISIS / ISIL supporters. ISIS / ISIL WANT a holy war. Bombing Syria is leading to a holy war in their eyes. Air strikes will only create more martyrs and increase terrorist acts by ISIS / ISIL. Surely this is obvious?

Imagine seeing your home destroyed and being forced to flee your country. This is the reality facing millions of refugees this year, as we continue to see in the news. The journey is only part of the story. After the trauma of fleeing their home, refugee families can find themselves divided across countries, even continents. In UK law we have something called Refugee Family Reunion, which can unite families again having found sanctuary from conflict. Whilst family reunion is vital for those that get it i regularly encounter heart-breaking cases the rules simply don’t cover, resulting in the trauma of separation. Like the Syrian-born Palestinian refugee who wished to bring his wife and children to join him in the UK. The family had fled Syria to Lebanon. Unfortunately, their eldest son was aged 20 at the time of making the application. His wife and younger children were granted visas, but his elder son was refused due to his age. The family are now divided. I want the rules widened so family members including children over 18 years old, dependent parents and grandparents, and siblings with no other family can apply. A new clause tabled to the Immigration Bill, due to be debated on 1 December, would do just that. It would also strengthen an existing safe and legal route for refugees, helping avoid potentially life-threatening journeys across Europe. But to make this happen I need your help. Please email your MP asking them to vote for Refugee Family Reunion. Everyone has the right to live in safety with their family and loved ones

Krusher Joule the living legend first came to the public's attention in 1982 when he became Art Director of the then Bible of Heavy Metal magazine Kerrang!.  Before that he was known as Steve Joule who had worked as a freelance designer in the music industry since 1976 producing work for the likes of Motorhead, Sammy Hagar, Uriah Heep, Gamma, Girlschool, Blondie and The Sex Pistols.  He has designed album sleeves for Hawkwind 'Live ’79', Gary Moore 'Dirty Fingers' and 'Live at the Marquee', Iron Maiden 'Live After Death', Ozzy Osbourne 'Diary of a Madman', 'Speak of the Devil' and 'Bark at the Moon', Japan and Black Sabbath 'Born Again' which apparently Ian Gillan, the then vocalist with the band was quoted as saying; “I took one look at the cover and puked!”, whilst both Deicide’s Glenn Benton and Soulfly’s Max Cavalera have claimed it to be their favourite album sleeve of all time.  Also whilst still working for Kerrang! Krusher designed a series of official biography books including Iron Maiden’s 'Running Free', Motley Crue’s 'The First Five Years' and Twisted Sister’s 'The First Official Book' and not forgetting tour programmes for AC/DC, Deep Purple, Robert Plant, Anthrax, Accept and Europe.  His work has also included designing and editing the official Donington 'Monsters of Rock' programmes since 1986 and he has also compered and DJ’ed the festival in 1994, ’95 and ’96.  In 1989 Krusher was offered his own radio rock show, 'Krusher’s Metal Mayhem' by the BBC which he presented on Greater London Radio. He was also approached to host and DJ the rock night at the Hippodrome club in the heart of London’s West End.  It was a club night that would regularly see eighteen hundred people crowd into the venue where they would be treated to impromptu live performances by the likes of Bon Jovi, Skid Row and Motorhead who all frequented the club on a regular basis as did Metallica, Motley Crue and Iron Maiden or whichever rock band was passing through town that week. Unfortunately like all good things both the radio show and the club came to an end, but not before becoming landmarks in the history of London rock.  In 1992 Krusher became co-presenter along with his Jack Russell terrier Bullseye of 'Raw Power' the UK’s only terrestrial TV rock show and voted best TV show in the Kerrang! Readers poll in both 1992 and ’93.  In 1994 the show changed its name to 'Noisy Mothers' a name which Krusher hated, always believing it should have been called 'Watch with Motherf****r' but which again was voted best TV show by Kerrang! and Metal Hammer readers for the next two years. Sadly Christmas 1995 saw the last ever 'Noisy Mothers' broadcast, the powers that be in TV land deciding that rock was a dying industry and therefore warranted no place on our TV screens.

You have cut back on staff and made your service hopeless for those who need to query you - from personal experience those on low income and having to take agency or multiple jobs in a short space of time are assumed to be tax dodgers and put on emergency rate when they are those who can least afford it, yet you neither investigate or prosecute those who are dodging thousands of pounds in tax. Use money to provide a better service not a pointless additional information exercise.

It is important that the UK has a plan, and not a "knee jerk reaction" before attacking targets in Syria. We the British public demand a clear plan for Syria to help the Syrian people.
