• 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.

  • SNP Arrogance
    In the past angling was the looked upon as for the "rich" The SNP are now been seen to revert back to these times making it inaccessible to many. Not only was "one for the pot" the law of the day but now a tax on catches seems to be the way,

  • 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.

  • Ban Dangerous Pesticides in Edinburgh region
    The use of glyphosates has already been banned or restricted in 8 countries. It is not acceptable that ourselves, our children and the animals we share our community with are being routinely exposed to these chemicals whether we like it or not. This is a matter of great importance for those of us who care about each other's health and the health of our children, our cats, our dogs and all the flora and fauna of this city.

  • Address the affront to democracy that is the House of Lords
    In May 2015 the electorate of Caithness, Sutherland & Easter Ross returned Dr Paul Monaghan as their MP, a massive swing of 27 percent had unseated the sitting Lib Dem MP, John Thurso. Incredibly less than twelve months later and following an electoral process that allowed three Lib Dem Hereditary Peers to determine his selection, John Thurso again became a Hereditary Peer in the House of Lords with the title of Viscount Thurso. The fact that John Thurso can now be in a position to affect the democratic will of his successor is an affront to democracy that totally unacceptable in a modern democracy in the 21st century.

  • Save woodlands in Brighton And Hove.
    Woodland conservation is important to save our woodland and save animals habitats also it will help our atmosphere get rid of CO2. For this reason, it would be particularly effective to plant more trees in high-pollution areas such as Preston Circus and Lewes Road.

  • A zebra crossing on every street
    There is a serious lack of pedestrian crossings in the Wester Hailes/Longstone/Sighthill areas and all over Edinburgh. Entire streets are currently left without a single pedestrian crossing – streets that have access to homes, shops and parks, where families go and people walk their dogs. There are intersections and bus routes, but no pedestrian crossings. Pedestrian crossings are needed at the Dumbryden Dr/Murrayburn Rd/Parkhead Dr junction, at the Hailesland Rd end of Dumbryden Dr, on Longstone Rd, and as far afield as Hermiston Gait on Cutlins Rd. Murrayburn Primary school does not have a single crossing anywhere around it. These are but a few suggestions and each is as good as any to start making our streets safer. Drivers NEVER stop when seeing some parent with their child or elderly people waiting to cross the road, simply because there is no zebra crossing anywhere to tell drivers to stop if someone is waiting to cross. The Edinburgh council tells me that, for a street to have a crossing, there needs to be a costly assessment of it, using a nationwide mathematical formula (PV2, or PV squared), to do with the ratio of pedestrian/car. then there can't be a simple zebra crossing like everywhere else in the world, but beacons that cost more money to install and upkeep. They also tell me there are some "islands" to help cross the street in two stages. Some of those islands are so narrow a buggy doesn't fit on them. The solution? Do away with the assessment and the unnecessary beacon and simply paint white lines at every street junction and intersection. Children and elderly and disabled people live in these areas. Isn't their safety – our safety – important? EVERY STREET should have a safe zebra crossing at an intersection.
