To plead to the Council to open its empty buildings to the homeless in winter. I cannot imagine sleeping rough in driving, biting winds, snow, ice and winter rain. It's inhumane. It's also inexcusable when we have so many empty buildings. I'm not asking for permanent shelters; just somewhere warm and dry for our homeless to sleep in winter.

People with no home, exposed to the elements this winter will get sick and could die. There are empty buildings serving no purpose. Let's give them a purpose

There are too many homeless rough sleeper in Crawley that cannot access accommodation at Crawley open house, because they don't have enough space, it's socially difficult for them or they do not fit the criteria. Let's not abandon homeless people when they need help the most to escape the cold.

This will combat two problems this winter, putting empty buildings to good use, and more importantly, ensuring that no man, woman or child will have to endure a cold and dangerous winter on the streets.

To save people living on the streets from illness, death and to enable local community and unity while safeguarding streets at the same time.

to prevent deaths and to prove we care about the wellbeing of all citizens

everyone deserves a home

This is the single most important issue in the world, as it is the first step to fixing all other issues. Because if governments were honest, with only the interests of their own citizens at heart, then at least 50% of the campaigning done here would not be necessary, giving more time and funds to concentrate on the remaining problems around the world. There has been far too much (proven) crime and corruption in our government for many years, but it seems that they are above the law and untouchable, having very rarely received any punishment. I believe that this is wrong. I think that those that are trusted with a position of power should face much tougher penalties than average individual when that power is abused. The government needs to be FULLY open and honest, without hidden agendas or secret meetings behind closed doors. Stop changing laws to suit only themselves, making it almost impossible to remove them from power - even when proven to be corrupt. Government should be held accountable for its mistakes and crimes and there should be processes in place to follow this through and remove them from power where necessary. The people seem to have forgotten, our government was put there to serve us, not the other way around!

As I've got older I have learned to appreciate radio more than I previously did and with BBC having such a wide variety of different radio stations there is one which i have become more accustomed too in my older age and if your moving on through the years as i am, you will know what BBC radio station i'm talking about. Yes radio 4. I started on radio 1, worked my way to 2, skipped 3 and have comfortably landed on 4 all because one day at work (while painting) I thought why don't i learn a thing or two of whats happening around me while I'm working, so I did and so i write this. I mean there is a never ending list of great television shows and radio shows but for me there is one which stands out taller then the rest, and believe it or not its "women's hour". I was raised by strong women and i'm also currently with one and i know how much strength and character it takes to fight for everything you want in this world. So to hear women talk on political , historical, present day or sexual issues i feel it is of the up most importance. Its something we can all learn from especially men like me. So lets not just save women's hour but the bbc as a whole.

They used to have them all over London from what I understand which must have been so useful and now they seem to have almost all vanished. This is important to me as a surfer I often find myself surfing next to plastic water bottle waste which causes massive destruction to the marine life and of course uses up precious finite resources. Watching this video on the journey of a plastic spoon (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eg-E1FtjaxY) also highlighted to me the absurdity of using a one use plastic water bottle.

Like many other higher education institutions in Great Britain, the Royal College of Music (RCM) outsources its cleaning services. The outsourced employees are faced with inadequate employment terms and the institution refuses responsibility for their conditions, unlike those employed by the college directly. The cleaners at RCM, employed by Ocean Integrated Services, receive no occupational sick pay, the statutory minimum holiday as well as meagre employer pension contributions. Our new campaign season sets out to build upon the successes last year’s successful 3 Cosas Campaign at the central University of London and to bring further its demands for reasonable sick pay, holidays and pensions to outsourced workers at the Royal College of Music .

Department for Work and Pensions minister Priti Patel claimed any examination of temporary sanctions' effects would be "misleading" in isolation and should not be investigated. This is a cop out. They know that their cuts are causing wide scale mental health problems but also know that if they are forced to face up to this they will have to admit that their policies are wrong.
