A petition submitted to the General Synod is passed to the Synod's Business Committee to identify how best to respond to it within the Synod's procedures. One way is for a full debate on the topic. With sufficient signatures, the sponsors of this petition will feel able to submit a Private Members' Motion phrased to give the contents of the petition full authority within the Church. It is intended to submit this petition to the Meeting Of The General Synod which will take place in York in July 2023 NOTE ABOUT SPONSORSHIP OF THIS PETITION: This petition has been created by some members of ABEL - Against Bullying, Encouraging Love - a voluntary, non-profit group of researchers and specialists in the area of bullying in churches.

My mother always asks me to help her with her computer. If there was free tuition, she could do it herself. I'm sure it's a common situation in families.

I feel like this is a good idea as children in the area won't have to go quite a distance and then their parents would be more confident in knowing their kid(s) are going to be safe.

Because if you have offshore investments, you are not in the job for the general publics interest!

The Government has recently changed the Code of Conduct so MPs no longer have to resign for breaking the code, meaning there is no longer anything to govern behaviour of our MPs.

The Government have tried to ignore the Ministerial Code making them unwilling to follow a moral code and have taken it upon themselves to start changing areas they no longer wish to follow. This has started with it is no longer a resigning matter if this code is breached, meaning the Government no longer has any serious repercussions for breaking the Ministerial Code.

Many of the trees to be cut down are mature trees, and these provide a wide array of benefits to us all: 1. Trees provide shade. In an urban environment trees are important to combat the urban heat-island effect (which heats our towns and cities), which will become increasingly important as climate change means we will experience more extreme weather events including heat-waves. 2. Mature trees absorb Carbon Dioxide a Greenhouse gas that accelerates climate change. Destroying mature trees means the loss of carbon sinks, which help to combat climate change. Trees For Life estimate that 6 mature trees offset 1 tonne of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) per year, Oaks are particularly good at absorbing CO2 and it takes 30-40 years before Oaks grow big enough to start absorbing significant amounts of CO2, so RBC's plans to plant lots of trees will have little effect in terms of helping to cut down emissions for quite some time. The CO2 stored in the 46 mature oaks set to be cut down, equates to around 7,636 kilos each year. Added to this, when a mature tree is cut down CO2 is actually released. 3. Decrease in Air Quality. Another consequence of the removal of these trees will be a decrease if the air quality in central Farnborough, on a site very close to the airport. Emissions (CO2, Carbon Monoxide, Nitrogen Dioxide and Carbon particulates) from road and air traffic will therefore have a bigger impact on residents than at present, and the new trees that are planted won't make up for this loss for around 30-40 years. Air pollution can cause serious breathing problems, especially in the young. Ella's Law is likely to be adopted in the very near future, after the death of Ella Adoo-Kissi-Debrah's death in 2013. In 2021 a coroner called for a change in the law to make local authorities responsible for air pollution -https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-56801794 4. Noise pollution. Trees help to buffer sound, so people living in the town centre, including in the new development, will be adversely affected by this. 5. The beneficial effect of nature on mental health. It's a well established fact that a lack of trees and green spaces has a negative effect on people's mental health. Under the current plans there are very limited opportunities for green spaces between all the bricks and concrete of the new development. Proximity to nature, particularly trees, is thought to have a positive effect on the brain's ability to produce cortisol and, as a result deal with stress, anxiety and depression. People often love and appreciate the trees in their locality and the wildlife (birds, butterflies and insects) that they encourage and support. 6. Loss of biodiversity and habitat for wildlife. Trees, Oak tress in particular, provide a habitat which supports around 300 species, including indigenous and visiting birds, butterflies and insects. Overall this development that puts many trees at risk would increase the impacts of climate change and loss of wildlife loss already happening in our area, and this is unacceptable.

The chaotic, inscrutable, abusive mismanagement of this scheme has led to immense pain, suffering and distress to sponsors and their would be guests. It is likely that some have died as a direct consequence of delays.

We need to be able to live in a area where dumped rubbish and furniture is not the normal way

The country needs to know what has happened to its labour force. Its not just the hospitality industry that is suffering, but it seems to have been hit hardest. Not everyone can have gone lorry driving surely?

Cars stopping here will get a ticket. No one wants to see their loved ones being carried halfway down the road No bride wants this worry on their wedding day Members with breathing problems Walking difficulty’s This is an old church used by many, loved by many and for so many if they can’t get dropped off they will worry about attending This entrance is a stone throw away from the entrance of this beautiful church. We don’t believe the church was taken in consideration when this was being considered.

The proposal to scrap a radio station which contains no news or current affairs represents a misjudgement in a world in which entertainment - even escapism - is more necessary than ever.
