Open Letter from Southwark Park Association 1869 Dear Cllr. Kieron Williams, We are a well-established, open and democratic voluntary group committed to the promotion of Southwark Park for the benefit of the community. We are shocked to know that Southwark Council has decided to defund the annual Bermondsey Carnival. It seems responsibility for our landmark local event, with origins going back to 1901, is to be put aside, without any communication or consultation with the public. For years the free to attend Carnival has bought people of all ages and backgrounds together for a day of enjoyment and relaxation, without interfering with people’s access to their park. It has been especially important to those who live within the immediate area – over 64,000 people, a fifth of the borough’s population, of whom some 14,000 (22%) are economically disadvantaged. Without a dedicated budget from the Council the future of the Carnival is in doubt. Reinstatement of £35,000 would cost about 54p a head of the local population, or a tiny 0.4% of the Council’s overall Environment and Leisure budget of £88m. As we come out of the pandemic, giving some certainty around funding for the organisers of the much-loved Carnival makes financial and social sense. We call upon the Council to urgently reconsider its decision. If you share our concern about the threat to the future of the Bermondsey Carnival please sign this online petition to the Leader of Southwark Council.

This extra payment on top of maximum increase that you will impose in Council Tax (2.99%) will lead to the most vulnerable in our city being affected alongside the £20 per week Universal Credit cut and the fact that electricity and gas bills for a typical household will go up by £693 a year in April. All these combined will create a 'Perfect Storm' of people suffering more financial hardship. The worry is will the Labour led council then impose a Blue Bin Tax? Or a Purple Bin Tax? When will the line be drawn? Please Stop And Scrap The Green Bin Tax.

The current system favours privileged investors, with cash or large credit potential. SOME Estate Agents have been known to only put properties on the maret after they have informed their privileged clients, with Letting Management contracts, so the Agents will benefit long term, and the Landolords will widen their portfolios. Some go as far as not contacting those making enquiries, with excuses like "too busy" or "Covid". Estate Agencies need to hire lower level Admins to do the initial contact and book viewings as soon as contact is made. Stop the practice of first getting back to those who book mortgage advice, or cash buyers. Young families are struggling to find affordable properties, in the past 24 months the bulk of affordable homes has gone to wealthy individuals - or those intent and skilled at becoming so - to the detriment of the ordinary housebuyer. Rents have been pushed to brutal limits in many areas because the buyers have only one objective: get rich quick!

There needs to be someone on site and on duty outside office hours in evenings and weekends to deal with fire alarms and residents being locked out of their rooms, and other similar duties and responsibilities, like we use to have If you are a resident of Sovereign/ New Bank House please sign this petition to show Xenia that we need someone that can deal with these events in house, alot quicker and easier than they have been since they removed the Rep role Thank you very much

This case shows the holes in the police system. Even with evidence of abuse and threats within domestic partners the police often leave victims feeling unsupported and left to tackle the situation themselves.

According to the Young Women's Trust, 40% of HR managers have said they do not advertise salary details with job adverts. Often this means that salary will be based on the new employee's previous salary. But this perpetuates existing gender and ethnic pay gaps. We can't really try and end gender and ethnic pay inequality without putting an end to this practice. Please help us put an end to this practice.

I think we in Essex pay two water authorities for no reason we are not kent we are Essex.

because male domestic abuse is just as prevelant in the uk as in 2021 1 out of 3 domestic abuse victims are actually male. this equated to 735,000 victims. this is a very large amount of males that really dont have the correct support networks in order to get the help and justice they deserve.
