• Restore wardens to Sheltered housing units
    I live in a sheltered unit with no on site warden, we have a warden visit the unit once a week, we have had two residents die and left until friends or family came to check on them as no warden is checking on the welfare of the elderly and disabled, when we had a warden based here they were able to spot deteriations in residents as they knew them well, now we don't know when they are here and they do not know anyone personaly, it has also destroyed the community spirit with people just staying in their flat and not socialising

  • Install The Peoples Senate
    The idea for a peoples senate is not a new one, however it is possibly the single most powerful way to empower the people and have them be heard. Think of a parliament where the members are not elected but called upon to perform a civil service from a list of people who register to show they are willing to participate. (like jury duty) This parliament would be made of people from all social, racial, religious and economic backgrounds, not just those who have the money to throw at a campaign and win a popularity contest. No matter your political views people can get behind the idea so long as they believe the people should have more say in how they are governed. This is the system that ended caste segregation in Kuthambakkam India that allowed an untouchable Elango Rangaswamy, to become mayor. It just makes more sense to have this system instead of a archaic house of Lords where right of birth is the only way to enter barring extreme wealth. This Senate could be restructured with a fresh group of representative's before every general election in order to keep it fair and stopping any individuals who would seek to try and only benefit themselves over a long term. With this in place and with 2 times as many seats as the house of commons, we could have 2 representatives from each constituency covering all the different diverse cultures and backgrounds within the UK and putting them into one united senate with more knowledge and experience of how we the people are affected by the rulings of parliament.

  • Bring back the Brocante
    The greater business community of Glastonbury gains a badly needed increase in revenue due to the Glastonbury Brocante Fair. Local hotels, B&B's, retailers, pubs, cafes, craft makers and artists all benefit from the huge influx of visitors to the fair. The loss of this fair will have a negative financial effect on the whole Town and the Mendip region beyond. The majority of traders at the fair are from this local community. Glastonbury Town Council has a responsibility to restore this fair.

  • We call for a Government of National Unity
    With brexit looming the only way that the UK can have a strong negotiating position is from working together. We must stand strong with Europe for European values against the Trump government. Germany works very successfully with a coalition of left and right.

  • In the event of a hung Parliament following the 2017 General Election
    1. Our existing democratic system is no longer fit for purpose. It is too centralised, serves political parties before people, stifles talent, innovation and new thinking, is unresponsive to the needs of local communities and promotes short-termism. 2 At a time of increasing turbulence in world affairs, the nation is clearly divided in the face of the complex issues posed by the inconclusive EU referendum which excluded the voices of young people whose future was being decide 3 No single political party is able to look after the interests of the nation as a whole Recent elections and referendums have pulled the nation apart and previous governments have failed to invest in the regions and protect opportunties for non-partisan pubic discourse – either in the media or in the political process - causing uncertainty amongst the electorate in the face of complex decisions about the direction of our country Note that whist Parliament is dissolved, it is not possible to petition the government and there is precedent under clause 61 of Magna Carta to petition the Queen

  • Make Bonham Road Resident only Parking
    Having parents park their car on any bit of space/ pavement they find is dangerous, accidents are occuring it's making it even more difficult to cross the road to get to the school. Children and adults that walk to school are almost getting knocked down by the people pulling up on to the pavements. It makes the road much too busy and puts people at risk.

  • Trump not welcome
    Trump has shown himself to be unworthy to hold the position of President of the US through many actions and comments and most recently by his deliberately misleading reference to comments made by Sadiq Khan relating to security matters in London. If Trump were to come there will be huge public discontent throughout the UK . There would be an unjustifiable security cost to protect him at a time when all our security resources should be concentrated on the high level of risk of more terrorist activity against the general population.

  • Theresa May: Review Trump's UK state visit invitation
    Donald Trump's ill-judged, offensive and divisive response to 3/5/17, and his internet harassment of London's democratically elected Mayor, disqualify him for the honour of a state visit. This petition calls on Theresa May to invite the elected representatives of the UK Government to review its offer of a state visit to Donald Trump, in response to the offence that Trump's comments on 3/5/17 have caused to huge numbers of people within the communities of London and the UK; most importantly, those directly affected by the terrorist attacks.

  • Ariana Grande for OBE
    For someone who's concert was the stage for a barbaric act of terrorism she bravely and unselfishly showed the world a better way and should be praised for it. So many celebs get honoured for nothing and this young lady should be praised for her compassion

  • Stop the demolition of Crawley Town Hall
    • Crawley Town Hall is a significant twentieth-century building worthy of preservation; it is the public face of the New Town and as such has iconic status. • The interiors are particularly well designed and represent the best of the era, particularly the early elements of ‘Minimalism’ • The loss of this building would be to lose an important example of iconic new town design with a high quality of both materials and detail • Of even greater loss would be that of the work of a significant architect and interior designer, Max Clendinning, who’s interior design works have been an influence on design to the present day • Crawley has historical importance as one of the first post-war New Towns to be planned • Crawley’s design principal is open, low rise and airy • The demolition is to make way for three 9 -10 storey tower blocks of flats and offices. Completely out of character with the ideas and history of the town • A new Town Hall is simply a waste of money and a destruction of our heritage
