Visitors car park are for visitors only and staff car parks are for staff only- therefore residents car parks should be for residents only. If there are not enough spaces provided for staff, more spaces need to be provided. Resident car parks should not be used as an over fill.

Grocery shopping with small children is never a fun job, nor anyone's first choice of outing with the children! However, shopping trolleys at budget supermarkets tend not to have the clip child safety restraints to deter little ones from standing up in the seat, or worse, falling from that height onto a solid concrete floor. If all supermarkets were to have appropriate and approved child safety belts, it would prevent numerous injuries and increase parental peace of mind.

A major contributing factor in my brothers death , who was cut down by a massive fatal heart attack There are so many modern medicines being prescribed and too few people realise what it is they are taking, This must stop. A clear understanding of the after effects should be explained, informing the patient of the choice

As a number of recent cases have shown, the provision at present, although meant as an exceptional exercise, is being routinely abused by defence lawyers keen to tarnish the reputation of the complainant, effectively arguing that, the greater number of consensual sexual encounters s/he engages in, the less possibility there is of s/he being raped. The constant misuse of the provision is resulting in many miscarriages of justice, and, more importantly, is creating the impression among many victims of sexual assault that pursuit of justice will not only prove fruitless but further victimise and humiliate them.

To feel safe when walking through the alley. It's so dark you can't even see where your going - this is for most nights. Recent news of people dressing up as clowns to hurt and/or frighten people is an added worry in such a dark alleyway. Personally, I don't feel safe walking down that alleyway, but my neighbours and I live there and that is the only access route to our homes. Which ever end of the alleyway you use, it is still pitch black for the majority of it.

It's would be comparable with some of the honours given to popular music performers of Clarkes generation. It would show that poetry can entertain and reach a mass audience particularly the young. Like the landscapes of Lowery can turn 'down to earth' subjects into an art form and comment on society from a working class viewpoint.

Test for the disability benefit PIP are carried out by the for-profit company Capita. Their assessors have been criticised for insensitive treatment of seriously ill citizens and for producing reports which give an inaccurate picture of what individuals are able to do. Many disabled people find the assessment process to be stressful and upsetting, and there is no point in constantly reassessing someone whose condition is never going to get better, or will get worse over time. The fact that the Government have decided to stop reassessments for ESA claimants with lifelong, incurable conditions shows that they realise that this isn't an effective use of resources. Now they need to extend this to PIP as well, and stop wasting public funds on unnecessary assessments which can be distressing for those involved.

The costs to the NHS are crippling. A & E departments are struggling to cope because the elderly are becoming unwell for want of adequate social care provision and are being forced to attend hospitals where, once admitted, they are likely to occupy specialist beds that they do not need, because there is nothing else available in the community. All old people deserve much better treatment than is currently available in Britain. As a country we spend less on health per capita than do most advanced economies. We are a wealthy nation but our disgraceful provision for the elderly is more like that experienced in a third world country.

Extrapolating figures drawn from the Office of National Statistics for 2017, foreign students studying in the UK would have brought in £28B in revenue if, on heavily flawed research, the Prime Minister (whilst Home Secretary) hadn't withdrawn tens of thousands of student visas. Often the brightest and the best apply to study in the UK - their research; remains and belongs to UK Institutions after they return home! This R&D makes the UK one of the most innovative countries in the World! £28B per year and free leading edge research; please review the visa requirements for foreign students studying in the UK. Then there is the human factor - impoverished villages around the Globe sell everything they have just to get one child a UK education, in the hope that on their return, now with much improved job prospects, they can financially support the entire village. It is these students that were hurt most when they were deported, without compensation, merely through a hurried and thoughtless visa change.

Kent Support and Assistance as it was called (KSAS), a Government Scheme funded £2.8 million pound in its first year and millions since, has just recently had removal the information of its phone service with the web page edited slightly to remove the multi million scheme's name too. You can only find information on the scheme by typing 'help in a crisis' or something similar into the KCC search bar with it's new name 'Home essentials in a Crisis'. The page has its header name changed and their number removed but is other wise the same. This seems to also be the case with other essential council services whereby you have to report/claim for help online not taking into consideration the vulnerable and those without internet access or the know how to use this method, the only choice given. This is something us a non funded organisation fill the faps with as they refer clients to us when turning people down for help was not informed of, nor any other sign posting agency we lisise with. We are already seeing the rise in cases coming to us before this at our Thanet 7 day Food Bank, non funded and run by community, something we have had to take the demand for with errors to this KCC service since it began in Spring 2013 following the abolishment of the DWP's social fund's Crisis Loans and Community Care Grants. As an organisation, we have previously fought to get waiting times down in their first year which was proven to be productive after being asked to meet with the scheme's commissioner when we swapped figures on how many people Kent County Council were helping in Thanet compared to our non funded 7 day food bank. The figures were shocking Our concerns were acted on after myself and vice chairman Robin were asked to meet the commisioner of the scheme and his colleague who travelled to meet us from Maidstone after we voiced our growing concerns through several channels Waiting times were at least 14 days often longer for a decision on helping with emergency food, gas and electric, by which time their situations had largely started to sort themselves but claimants were still receiving food and fuel from KSAS after we had supported them through their hardships within 24 hours which even the clients acknowledged to be a waste of the council money. The commissioner, Hugh Martyn listened to what we provide non funded and he called me the 'Gap Filler', he asked what we see as the need here in Thanet and was quick to act with waiting time reduced to a matter of days rather than weeks within weeks. This was funded £2.8 million pound in the spring of 2013 with further millions in funding year on year following from Central Government to provide a service to the people in need from Maidstone to the whole of Kent. Right now, the people of Kent are being let down hugely yet again. We will be gathering more figures and FOI's into exactly how many services have had their phone contact service removed. **If you would like to get involved or would like to share your story, please send us an email to [email protected] or [email protected] Kerry Keating and Robin Vaughan Lyons

People in lower middle class cant afford can't afford it without taking out loans. When taking out a student loan you only pay it off for 30 years if you are working in the UK so a lot of loans are written of anyway so they should be a reasonable price that most people can afford.
