• Civil servants must be impartial.
    He defends himself by stating that there were risks and saying he thought the people had the right know. But he completely ignored that rules are for everybody. They do not bend for any group no matter the opinion of those who work under them. By boasting about it in a speech to his rich cronies he has shown an arrogance beyond belief and total disregard for the Scottish people, by not allowing them to assess the risks (which he himself played a large part in manufacturing) for themselves to make up their own minds. Instead he wholeheartedly helped to build and promote possibly the most frightening and effective of the NO scare stories.

  • Stop Barclays Bank charging huge fees on overdrafts
    It is hard enough to make ends meet in the current financial state of the UK. Having banks charge exorbitant fees to make up for their losses when they have been fined for illegal activities is beyond belief. It must stop now.

  • Abolish the CSA
    It is making the lives of non-resident father's (who often experience debt, drink/drug problems, unemployment & PAS as a result of broken relationships) a misery, sometimes taking extortionate amounts of money direct from their wage packet, irrespective of being on an IVA programme, having massive travel costs to see their child etc). Also, the blanket 15% - often higher to address arrears which fathers often incur due to dispute with mother on separation - is unfair and should be lower. The mother often chooses to leave and has to bear responsibility for this. Plus she gets benefits for having children, so is doubly rewarded.

  • No Parking Charges At Knutsford Hospital
    The hospital is used by many patients with chronic health conditions that require regular tests, meaning some people could pay large amounts in parking charges over the year. It amounts to a tax for being ill. Furthermore, all revenue from fines imposed goes to ParkingEye, the contractor managing the site, not the hospital.

  • Save Energy Solutions
    At a time where council budget cuts are rolling back central support for households, Energy Solutions must be funded to provide vital, complex services to vulnerable families and individuals in crisis due to cold living conditions and fuel poverty. We can save £££s for the local authority, Public Health and the NHS. We ask the Council to fund a bridging period of at least six months, to allow discussions that will lead to a sustainable, results driven, funding programme based around savings made to departmental budgets as a result of affordable warmth measures and financial capability services.

  • Emergency Service in East Cambridgeshire
    Recent cuts have lead to unnecessary deaths, as funding has been cut too far back for these services to function. People with critical illness, such as heart and even strokes had to wait 15 minutes before an ambulance appeared. Police can not attend emergency calls, as manpower has been cut. A&E is over stretched with 4 hour queues as we had nearly 15 years ago, due to unnecessary cuts by East Cambridgeshire county council. People are being placed in unnecessary range and death, as emergency services have been cut far to far. Government has falsified their statements of supporting the NHS, as they talk about a few extra millions added this winter, when in fact they have cut NHS funding by £30 billion plus. This was a tactic to be able to say that the NHS needs to be privatised, which in fact will cost as far more than we have paid so far, as shareholders expect huge shareholding premiums. Be not be fooled. the NHS worked fine, not perfectly but it was good. It was just mismanaged by various governments in the last 30 to 40 years, but in particular in the last 20 years.

  • Stop Spending On Trident Renewal Without Public Consent
    Surely, when so many people throughout Britain are in poverty regardless of how hard they try to work their way out of it, we can agree that to put massive amounts of public funding in to an obsolete defence system is unjustifiable, and to do so without the consent of the public is indefensible.

  • Mental Health Act inquiry
    I myself have been abused by the Mental Health System my first experience of being treated was as follows: I was approached by 5 nurses, one of which was carrying a needle, in response to this I panicked, I ran down the corridor and closed a door behind me and tried to hold it shut. Without any sort of negotiation they all began to barge the door open, one nurse grabbed one of my limbs until I was unable to move and I forced face down on the corridor floor, they proceeded to remove my trousers and pants and a nurse injected a psychotropic drug into the buttock. After this I passed out. I was not allowed to leave the ward to go outside, even under supervision, for simple things such as fresh air: which in the smelly, dirty, contained environment where the closest thing to fresh air was the smoking room. A similar event happened when I had given up and they medicated me by force, after this I set off the fire alarm and ended up being sent to an even more secure unit. They deprive liberty and expect you to conform to 3 hour passes that even if you are 10 minutes late they take them away. They have made me homeless before, and they continue to use invasive treatments on me. This started happening to me in 2007 and they still harass me now. This is because every tribunal is heard by 3 people tribunal of a Psychiatric member (claiming to be medical). Legal member. (Probably the psychiatrists lawyer) and a General member (Mental health Officer). There is a huge case of fraud here as it is bias and their medication is subject to publication biasing. http://youtu.be/RKmxL8VYy0M I still suffer side effects from their medication, but they ignore them. They also disregarded my advanced statement which was similar to: http://www.cchr.org.uk/wp- content/uploads/2010/01/Advance_Statement_form.pdf Every piece of evidence they have on me is hearsay and nonsense, a complete violation of human rights. http://youtu.be/RfAMbmxs7KE This is a political Science gone out of control, it is dictated by psychiatrists. http://youtu.be/II96QkZaz1E For too long have people(including me) been abused by these psychiatrists, we have to start somewhere.

  • Ban Saudi Royals from entering Britain
    Britain should not associate with this cruel regime and we should make it known to them that we do not want visits from any of their royals or senior government officials whilst they torture their citizens.
