To keep everyone safe while out riding be it horse rider & horse or car & people either way we must stand up and fight for what is right!

Immigration increases the UK's wealth. Immigrants (especially from the EU) don't sponge off the UK state benefits. Employment rates for immigrants are higher than for UK nationals. They come here to work and as a result are net contributors as tax payers. BUT - they don't take jobs from UK nationals. Employment among UK nationals is rising not falling. Nor do immigrants push down wages, as is claimed. The University of London has found no link between the number of immigrants coming into an area and whether average wages rise or fall in those areas. This is still true when looking at low-skill jobs only. It made no difference to the wages in low-skilled jobs whether there was high or low immigration into an area. Other research has found that the falls in the real value of wages experienced across many industry sectors are in fact largely due to the general economic and financial conditions and not to immigration. In fact immigrants are so good for the UK that they can make the difference between the country being able to manage the national debt and failing to do so in the long term. Over the next 50 years, our national debt, according to the Office for Budget Responsibility is expected to rise from the current 80% of Gross Domestic Product to just under 90% of GDP. If we limit immigration it ends up nearer 110% of GDP. If we encourage immigration it falls to 70% of GDP. So, if immigration is good for the country, we should encourage it not continue to spread myths about it that pander to prejudices.

There is ample evidence that there are no 'moderate rebels' in Syria. The rebels are all terrorists and many of them are non-Syrian mercenaries. There is also ample evidence that the US is covertly funding terrorist rebels in Western Aleppo and elsewhere who are holding civilians hostage. There is also evidence that ISIS are obtaining arms and oil through Turkey with USA knowledge/involvement. The US has no evidence that Assad gassed his own people, which was given as the original reason for our and the US's direct involvement. Emails leaked from a British defense company, Britam, revealed a plan already in place before the alleged attack, approved by the White House, to give chemical weapons to hired mercenaries, to use on civilians, in order to frame Assad. This justified a direct US intervention, as the covert attempt at an overthrow was, after nearly three years, starting to lose badly. The British people were subjected to daily propaganda that the only action we could take was to go and help to bomb the terrorists in Syria and help the 'rebels' overthrow Assad. Despite there being no evidence at all that these rebels had the support of the Syrian people or indeed were in fact Syrian. Carla del Ponte, a member of the U.N. Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Syria, told Swiss TV back in 2013 that there were “strong, concrete suspicions but not yet incontrovertible proof,” that rebels seeking to oust Syrian strongman Bashar al-Assad had used the nerve agent. World renowned journalist Seymour Hersh has revealed, in a series of interviews and books, that the Obama Administration falsely blamed the government of Syria’s Bashar al-Assad for the sarin gas attack that Obama was trying to use as an excuse to invade Syria. Hersh pointed to a report from British intelligence saying that the sarin that was used didn’t come from Assad’s stockpiles. Hersh also said that a secret agreement in 2012 was reached between the Obama Administration and the leaders of Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar, to set up a sarin gas attack and blame it on Assad so that the US could invade and overthrow Assad. Since then it has come to light from emails released by Wiki leaks that Hilary Clinton backed the destruction of the Gaddafi government, which led to the occupation of ISIS of large segments of that country, weapons flows going over to Syria into jihadists within Syria, including ISIS. Clinton was aware of this and in fact orchestrated it. The proof is in the emails. Further more, on the ground witnesses, including the Red Cross have said that there is NO EVIDENCE at all that Russia bombed hospitals in Western Aleppo.The rebels hold Eastern Aleppo and any hospitals are the treating the terrorists. There is also very good evidence that the White helmets are a front for smuggling in arms and are responsible for atrocities. There are over 7 million displaced people, The overthrow of the secular Syrian government was planned years ahead and featured in the document Project for a new American Century, The American Military commanders are now talking up a direct confrontation with Russian forces. Russia is in Syria legally having been invited in by the Syrian Government. The US and it's allies are there illegally. Any engagement with Russia is madness and the Uk government should withdraw all support for this barbarity immediately. https://www.antiwar.com/blog/2016/09/29/why-everything-you-hear-about-aleppo-is-wrong/ (http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/pdf/RebuildingAmericasDefenses.pdf) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lBxI1kaY-w4

Aberdeen City Council is trying to make us go through a costly and time consuming planning application to keep a small building that provides our only electricity supply, with no guarantee the application would be accepted. For eight years we fought several utility companies over their refusal to send accurate bills and attempts to trick us into paying money we didn’t owe. Eventually we were left with only one option to avoid being cheated - go off-grid. We decided on solar PV as this is the most reliable and cost effective means of generating off-grid electricity. But we didn’t have a South facing roof, so we built a small wooden building to house the solar panels. We spent several weeks building it with our own hands. Now the council want us to go through a lengthy and costly planning application just to keep this building. I live with my disabled mother. Living without power would deny her vital medical treatment (which she already has to pay for herself) as this has to be stored in a refrigerator. Her treatment has already been affected by having to build the building and off-grid system over the summer, and having to go through a lengthy bureaucratic process would undoubtedly affect it further. I earn a low income with a self employed electrical business that provides our only income. I could not do this without a power supply to charge my tools and run a laptop for my paperwork. I’ve also released a computer program that I hope to develop into a business. This would of course also be impossible without a power supply. I’m busy trying to earn a living for us and will struggle if I have to spend time dealing with a planning application. Living without power would be a nightmare in today’s world - hand washing clothes, no lights, no fridge, etc. We are socially isolated and depend on the internet as our only connection to the rest of humanity. Without a power supply this too would be lost. We don’t know who, if anyone made a complaint about our building, but we don’t believe it’s causing anyone a nuisance. It doesn’t block the light to, or view from, anyone’s windows. It replaced an old garden shed, on the same site, that was rotting away. In very adverse circumstances we are doing something positive for the planet - solar PV is zero emissions and totally sustainable. Don’t let Aberdeen City Council take that away. Please sign the petition. If you live outside the UK you can sign by emailing your name, any message you wish to be included with your signature, and stating that you are signing the petition "Aberdeen City Council - Don’t make us fight to keep our only power supply", to [email protected] . Thanks.

I wonder what it must be like to be a non-British family worrying about the possible outcome of Brexit and then to receive a text message from your children's school saying "Info required-If your child is not of British Nationality or was not born in the UK, pls inform the school by tomorrow"? Then, a few days later, you receive a letter from the school ([1]). Maybe you've also been asked to declare your nationality by your employer too ([2])? We should not discriminate between British and non-British children in our schools: * It is not clear what purpose this data serves given that the DfE already records pupils' ethnicity and first language. * The data is unlikely to be accurate since responding is optional and non-respondents will be assumed to have British children. * The data could be abused in the future ([3]). * The Greater Manchester Law Centre has called parents to ignore the census to avoid discrimination and inequality ([4]). Thanks for reading this far. Please have a think about this issue and decide whether to sign this petition. The DfE's plans are probably entirely innocent, but is this the direction we want our country to go in?

House prices are already falling behind other areas of the country and the already crumbling roads cant cope with the extra traffic. The environment will be destroyed and the money will not remain in the Fylde and maybe not in the UK. A study shows that the increase in employment is dwarfed by the loss of agriculture jobs not to mention the reduction in the tourism industry.

Too many talented people are going unrecognised, because they simply do not fit into the elitist niche. We need to collectively support our country's talents, and Charlie McAulay Robertson is one of them. Now a self published author of his own book "Waxing Saltirical" , he is still yet to be recognised.

Businesses are using expired Vouchers and Cards as a licence to help themselves to £250 million of our money a year. Make them take the expiry date off cash Gift Cards and Vouchers, or make them donate any 'expired' money to charity! Imagine this Christmas you give a £50 Gift Card as a present. The recipient is too embarrassed to tell you that it expired before they got around to using it. Guess what happens to your money, Businesses keep it all for themselves, knowing full well that you will never find out. It's a perfect and unnoticed theft. Is this fair and honest behaviour? Is theft OK if you don't know about it? Money given to people as vouchers or gift cards need to be honoured no matter how long the person keeps them in their wallet. Your money has been spent in the stores in good faith, in the full expectation that retailers will honour the voucher or gift card and supply goods and services to the full value of the card. Taking someone's money and not giving anything in return is theft even if they never find out.. Sign the petition if you are fed up of this underhand practice and want it changed.

Because Abu al is likely to be crippled for life and yehia has life threatening injuries and both boys are suffering beyond words. There are many injured children in Syria and we can't help them all; but we must be able to get these boys out. The film crew were there so there is a route in and out. We helped people in the Second World War so now we do it again!

N.I.C.E. have recommended acupuncture for low back pain since 2009 and are now reversing their decision.The British Acupuncture Federation (BAF) which represents six organisations covering all styles of acupuncture can attest to its effectiveness for this condition based on proven outcomes. The US military obviously agrees with BAF with regard to acupuncture's effectiveness in pain relief as its Warrior Transition Unit Clinics treat large numbers of soldiers injured in combat with Battlefield Acupuncture for pain relief. The World Health Organisation states that low back pain is the leading cause of activity limitation and work absence throughout much of the world, so if you haven't suffered from it yet, the odds are that you will. Do you want to be deprived of an effective treatment within the NHS and have to rely on anti-inflammatory drugs with their known side effects? -- If not please sign the petition and support patient choice.

Drakes Island is a lost land of history that most Plymouthian's have never been able to visit. This island has been referred to as 'The jewel in Plymouth's crown', yet it can only be looked at from a distance, never touched. This has been going on for far too long. Military fortifications dating back to the 16th Century and running up to WW2 provide reason enough for historians to show interest in this unique island. However, the natural beauty of the island and it's surroundings, coupled with the already existing historic military structures offer opportunities for heritage economy like no other city in Britain! It is unacceptable that such a beautiful asset of Plymouth's heritage has been left to rot for over 15 years while the people of Plymouth can only look, but not touch.

This will benefit the environment by reducing the energy requirements of recycling. Reduce the burden on local authorities to collect and sort this type of recycling. Donation and collection of bottles could help local fund raising activities. Other Countries including the USA have such a system, in fact it was common in the UK up the end of the 1960's.
