  • The Windmill
    The Windmill Public House is a traditional meeting place and community focus for the village. It is registered as an Asset of Community Value [AVC] . It is within a conservation area and adjacent to Charlton House which is a historic listed building within the Green Belt. CAMRA North Hertfordshire Branch argue that the changes proposed by the current owner will preclude it from from ever returning to having the status of a much loved village pub.

  • Don't force Hungerford School to become an academy
    No two schools are alike. But the government doesn’t seem to agree. It wants to rush through plans to force every single school in England to become an academy – the type of school paid for by taxpayers, but run by businesses, sponsors or trusts. In Islington this could destroy the Islington Community of Schools, a valuable co-operative partnership between schools (including local Academies) and the local council. Many teachers and parents are already standing against the plans, saying that they’re ‘a step towards privatisation’, ignore local views, and could force some schools to close. One size does not fit all, and local parents and teachers should have a say in the future of our school. ------ If this isn't your local school, click here to sign your local petition, or start one if no-one else has yet: https://secure.38degrees.org.uk/start-a-campaign-for-your-school

  • Ecstasy testing for the sake of our future generation
    Since the mid 90s young and old people have been able to test their Ecstasy pills in the Netherlands. Since the mid 90s there have been less than a hand full of deaths due to this. Fast forward to Britain present day. Imagine the polar opposite, imagine parents crushed with nothing else to live for but planning their beautiful son or daughters funeral. Here you have present day Britain because Cameron and his despicable party will not allow or even understand why ecstasy testing needs to be brought into everyday society in the UK. This could be in a nightclub environment (ideally) or a place people can go to test their ecstasy before the party. The most obvious example are: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leah_Betts The most recent and heart wrenching is: http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/teen-girl-who-died-after-11275478 The family of the above had already lost 2 children. They lost another due to our government demonising people for taking such substances, but they allow and endorse alcohol that kills approximately 22'000 people a year! When was the last time you heard about an ecstasy user harming another human being? Then ask yourself when was the last time you heard about an alcohol abuser harming? I don't need to ask you the answer. How long is it before your son or daughter experiments? How long is it before your son, daughter, brother, sister or cousin thinks it's a good idea? One day it will be someone you know, someone you hold dear. Someone who is the Faye Allen in your life. Someone you know who dies. Sign this petition to get ecstasy testing stations obligatory in UK nightclubs without fear or reprimand to the users. They're not murderers, they are not rapists, they are one of us just wanting to live. They do not deserve to die. They are not guinea pigs. They are not nothing

  • Force Google to take adult picture searches
    Because kids should not have this information easy to access. We've thought we were prepared using OpenDNS to avoid opening various adult related sites and I've found my 7 year old kids watching really explicit nudity pictures that Google does not block. The only technical solution after reading in Forums is to block Google and YouTube, but a company like Google should have the same safeguards that Bing has. Googlesafe works only when you are logged in, but the majority of times, when kids use search engines they are not logged in, so it is pretty useless.

  • SUPPORT THE JUNIOR DOCTORS STOCKPORT
    It is widely recognised that junior doctors are the lifeblood of the modern NHS. They are the consultants of the future, and through years of dedicated training provide a truly 24 hour a day, seven day a week service. The proposed contract undermines safe working practices, reverts to a previously failed system and has been roundly rejected by the workforce. It is openly discriminatory against female doctors. The proposed changes are based on flawed analysis of data that suggests a “weekend effect” and while we are keen to improve safety in hospitals across the UK, this contract will harm patients, harm the workforce and harm the training of junior doctors. Further to the overwhelming rejection of this contract by junior doctors, they have huge support from consultant colleagues, multiple Royal Colleges and the public as a whole. Please publicly reject the imposition of this contract at Stockport NHS Foundation Trust and call for new negotiations without pre-condition in a mark of support for the hard working and dedicated doctors employed by the Trust.

  • David Cameron initiate an official enquiry into Islamophobia in the London Mayoral Election
    The election has been marred by Islamophobic claims made against the Labour Candidate for The London Mayoral Election. This has brought British Democracy into disrepute and will exacerbate distrust in and disillusionment with the electoral system and UK Government by both Islamic people and other minorities. This sets a dangerous precedent for future elections, will divide society further, will increase a sense amongst British minorities that they cannot expect fair and just treatment from British Government and reduce the sense amongst many that there is any point in engaging in democracy. It may in addition increase the risk of instability in The UK.

  • Add Speed Awareness / Traffic Calming Measures to Llanfairpwll
    As local residents we have observed traffic frequently speeding dangerously through the village. The whole community young and old are vulnerable to cars speeding past, especially when trying to cross over the road. Nowhere is this more apparent than where traffic initially enters the village at the Menai Bridge end. At this point a busy staggered junction causes an initial crash hazard, then the petrol garage and the school. At school drop off and pick up times traffic is hazardous due to the chaos but speed is restricted by the number of parked cars. However at other times such as early morning and late afternoon the speeds are excessive, and especially in the evening. An introduction of a Vehicle Activated Sign (flashes 30 to remind traffic to slow down) would prompt drivers to reduce their speed upon entrance into the village before approaching the school or other pedestrian likely areas.

  • Free Local Train Travel for England's Pensioners
    Many pensioners are isolated, lonely and trapped in pensioner poverty. Buses do not provide toilets or comfort for many with mobility or health issues. South Yorkshire Freedom Riders have long campaigned for their concession to be returned and for it to be extended to all on the above grounds as well as social needs. For example many now find hospital treatment is no longer local but regional and often impossible to travel to by bus. If it's good enough for pensioners in London then it's only right that all pensioners in England have the same concession.
