We have all heard about people who become unable to care for themselves in old age, and who have had to sell their homes to pay for accommodation in retirement homes. This is upsetting and unsatisfactory, both for the elderly people and for their relatives, and the quality of care in these places is often dubious. A tax raised specifically to address this situation could be used to ensure proper levels of care in every retirement home, or care in the person's home, all governed by NOS (Health and Social Care National Occupational Standards). The urgency of this need is increasing rapidly, in line with the size of the elderly population in this country. The proposal would solve problems at many levels, as the children and other relatives of the elderly people would be saved much anxiety; also hospital beds would be freed up.

Because women are being told that in this society they are equal, but this law proves they are not. If a women passes the same physical test as a man why should she still not be allowed to join up? When I go on the army website to see what roles I could join up as I see loads of interesting, exiting opportunities yet when I click on all the ones I'm interested in one of the requirements is for me to be male. Well sorry, but thats not going to happen. I want the choice to join up! Many men when questioning feminism (simply gender equality) argue that they are pressured to join up not understanding that women can't. If a women meets the same physical requirements as a man and joins up, how is that any different to a man joining up? Even the US allows women into front line roles! I don't see how some people believe that sexism doesn't exist in the UK...

To encourage wealthy global organisations to be proud of taking an ethical stance and making this part of their branding, taking a lead in changing the world so that every man, woman and child associated with their supply chains can make a living wage.

This will save the average consumer around £180 to £200 per year as many (myself included) only have a fixed phone line service into my house because I have to in order to make it possible for broadband to be delivered. In many cases, the phone service is more expensive than the broadband. There is absolutely no technical reason why this service could not be turned off and as long as there is a copper pair into the property, the broadband will still work as well as it does now. We are effectively being held to ransom by telcos if we want fixed line broadband. This also affects most domestic, so called "fibre optic" broadband as this service is still delivered to the property over the copper wires. Whilst we cannot realistically expect that the provision and maintenance of the copper network can be carried out for free, Ofcom should look at what is fair pricing for the provision of a "naked" copper pair with only broadband provided over it and the removal of the obligation to have a fixed landline telephone service to the home as a large percentage would prefer to remove this option if they were given the choice.

The exhibition is sexist and offensive. It denigrates and depicts women as sex objects.

Recent figures show that the councils are making excessive money; Figures from the RAC revealed councils in England made a combined £667m profit from parking fines last year. In an economic state where: Children are going to school hungry, while some parents are going for days without eating in order to feed them, according to a charity. The Trussell Trust is calling for a public inquiry into the reasons behind a surge in the use of food banks. How can we stay quiet and let the councils attack us, we need to challenge the councils on the following matters: 1) Excessive penalty means no difference of lesson taught 2) Councils using nasty bailiffs and debt collection agencies to extract money 3) Figure to state where the money is being spent 4) The councils must ensure that they are not Breach of contract Law Reform (Frustrated Contracts) Act, 1943 section 3, Misrepresentation Act 1967 section 2, Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977 5) That they are not breaching Human rights Act Article 5,6,7,8,11,12 6) The council is acting within Taking control of goods, national standards 2014 Paragraph 66 (relates to excessive levy) 7) That all road marking on public highway comply with The Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions 2002 8) The Civil Enforcement of Parking Contraventions (England) General Regulations 2007 Part 2 Regulation 9 is not being breached We need to unite and regain control while the economy of this country is suffering and while some parents are going without food just to pay rent / mortgage and their bills. The councils are making excessive profits of millions why because we are letting them, by signing this campaign we can start to make a change !

Safety of vulnerable and poorer people of Merseyside. Possible exploitation of those vulnerable Unfair dismissal and silencing of staff and volunteers. We NEED a fire service which helps ALL the people of Merseyside to keep safe, not to place restrictions and make fire safety an issue only for the middle-classes only.

For too long politicians from all the major parties have publically stated they would not sell or privatise areas of public spending on the run up to elections, only to then do so once they are in office. They clearly cannot be trusted. If any area of PUBLIC spending is going to be privatised, then it should be THE PUBLIC who decide, not politicians. It should be the public who have the last say on the matter. If it is the PUBLIC's money that is going to spent, then it should be the PUBLIC who decides how it should be spent.

I believe this action will substantially reduce the number of 'cold calls' to households. Business callers are to declare their full names - first and second - plus the business or organisation they represent, and their formal position within it. I am fed up with cold calling as I am sure everybody else is. Cold calling is now something of an industry and some of these calls which tout for business are potentially fraudulent. How many innocent people have been scammed or duped over the phone, when they would otherwise have been spared this, if only they had been able to verify the identity of the caller? The concept of 'Name Is No Shame' equally applies to business letters written to members of the public and emails, where the full identity of the author has been withheld. Government it seems has done little if anything to stem the tide of unsolicited phone calls to the public; it is down to us to insist that they act. I am confident that if 'Name Is No Shame' becomes law and that it is mandatory for the business community to declare their identity in dealings with the general public, it will substantially reduce the number of 'cold calls' to households. Thank you.

Tower Hamlets has the fourth most expensive private rents in the country. But if you live here, you live amongst one of the poorest populations in the UK. The cost of housing is forcing working class people out of the borough. Landlords - including so-called social Landlords - are looking to make a fast buck, some have resorted to driving out existing tenants. We pledge to defend tenants against eviction. Tower Hamlets' housing crisis continues with 20,000 on the council waiting list 8,000 of whom live in accommodation unfit for habitation. This is forcing many, particularly young people, out of the borough.

This will not only end the treatment of addicts and recreational drug users as criminals, but it can also see an increase in revenues through taxation, a reduction of the government deficit by roughly £1.25 billion and a decrease in crime as seen in the US state of Colorado. The "Misuse of Drugs Act 1971" is a 43 year old law with a desperate need of an overhaul and needs to be repealed, if possible, in order to allow for a safer, better law regarding decriminalisation of illicit substances to be put in place.
