The first line of the executive summary of the 2018 report of the U.N.’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change says “Limiting global warming to 1.5°C would require rapid, far-reaching and unprecedented changes in all aspects of society.” In order to make those societal changes now, we need our elected representatives to declare a climate and environmental emergency. If that action is not taken now, and consequently global warming exceeds 1.5°C, then the climate will change irriversibly (it already is) and within our lifetimes, we will experience unprecendented disruption to our social systems and ability to provide basic needs like food. These impacts are already being felt in the UK.

We are concerned that the people of Worthing will no longer have control of what happens to our Theatres and Museum. To ensure they stay in safe hands, we are calling for pause in the process to gather all the information and a cross party working group that includes Local Arts Groups, Theatre and Museum Users and Staff Trade Union Representatives.

America is currently separating young children from their parents at borders, and placing them alone in detention centres, without access to clean water, beds, contact with family members, or proper care. Migrants have been kept in cells at freezing temperatures, and many of them have died due to lack of proper medical care. The US government have used children as bait to arrest and deport family members who come forward to care for them. Human Rights Watch spoke to an 11 year old in one of the detention centres, caring for his toddler brother, in a cell crowded with other children. When they spoke to the brothers, the little one had matted hair, and a awful cough, with eyes half closed with fatigue. They had been in there for three weeks, with no contact with their relatives or the outside world. US border control are holding many children, as young as two years old, in jail-like border control facilities for weeks or months at a time without access to showers or clean clothes, with many children becoming sick. All migrants have the right to be treated with dignity, humanity, and compassion, and children are entitled to additional safeguards under both US and international law. It is time the U.K. government as the USA's closest allies take action and publicly condemn these human rights abuses.

- Metropolitan Open Land is important to all Londoners as they are a resource for biodiversity, act as a green lung, and promote wellbeing in general by providing open views. - It will be located far from the point of identified need; Fulwell & the Hamptons. In Whitton and Twickenham, there is a surplus of school places. - The school's existing Hampton Site is large enough to accommodate the school on one site (in a new purpose-built building). However, the Council wants to sell that land for housing. - The planning committee was told by officers and the applicant that they effectively had the choice of either giving the school planning permission or it would be closed down. They were also told incorrectly that expanding existing schools have to be fully funded by the borough (without any reference given to Basic Need mechanism where the Government pays the majority of the cost). - Location is wholly unsuitable for a school due to dangerous access being at the foot of a 1850s narrow humped back bridge, and the school placed next to a noisy railway line. - Dangerous main entrance shared with a landscapers/builders yard that has HGV traffic arriving and departing at the same time as pupils. - Being located outside its main 80% catchment area which will result in extra congestion and pollution, as the A316 cuts off Whitton from the rest of Richmond Borough and there are only two highly congested crossing points for road traffic. - The sixth form is an over-development of MOL as there is already a massive oversupply of sixth form / tertiary education places in the borough. - Land allocated to playing fields are excessive and if the scheme goes ahead the size of these needs to be reduced and more land handed over as an extension to Heathfield Recreation Ground as compensation. - Insufficient bus services are being provided; Transport for London wanted funding for a lot more bus services but these were negotiated down by the Government. This will result in more pupils traveling to school by car than projected in the Travel Plan. - The Hospital Bridge Road site is burial land and the London Plan policy 7.23 seeks to protect it. This was not addressed by Richmond Council. This proposal will result in Hounslow losing around a third of her burial supply. - The proposed building does not meet modern energy efficiency standards which will increase pollution and cost the school more in running costs. - The applicant has not carried out the requests in the GLA Stage 1 Report by not seriously looking at sites in Hounslow, reducing the footprint of the school buildings or the carpark, and other issues such as the use of render rather than brick. - Hounslow Council requested conditions to make the bridge safer and for there to be cycle lanes and extra crossings added to the road around the site etc (as the site borders their Borough). These were hidden from the planning committee and were not mentioned in the Officers Report.

Southwold is dying because local people are being priced out of homes by holiday lets. Two thirds of homes are holiday lets. The average house price is 21 times the average wage. We need 100 more affordable homes to rent quickly before our community dies. Our average age is 65. We want to hear children playing on our greens again. We want a vibrant community that welcomes visitors but is not banished by them. The government still subsidies second home owners who pay no rates. Local homes are developed into five bedroom holiday lets. Cleaners are bussed in. This is social apartheid. East Suffolk Council say that we have enough affordable homes, when we hear 40 local people applied for one last week. We need 100 as soon as possible in Southwold Ward which includes Reydon and Walberswick, but definitely before the next Council elections in 2023. As seen on Anglia TV on Friday evening.

We want West Sussex County Council to address the issue of pedestrian and cyclist safety on Lodge Lane. Lodge Lane links the village of Keymer to the South Downs national park. A 40mph speed limit applies over the southern section of the road from Keymer to the junction with New Road (B2112). This section of Lodge Lane has no footpath and is overhung by trees. Visibility is poor for motorists. There are no street lights in the area. The route is heavily used by walkers, runners and cyclists of all ages at all times of day and night. It is an access route to Downlands school and a leisure route to the National Park. Guests staying at the camp site at the Lodge Lane/New Road junction naturally want to access village facilities, itself to be encouraged as a boost to trade. Traffic on this stretch of road is likely to increase as a result of residential development in the local area, increasing the danger to walkers and cyclists. We want West Sussex County Council to address this risk to members of our community, enabling us to move safely around our village and to encourage both local people and visitors to explore the village and the National Park.

The staff recently have had to turn away 9 new referrals due to the closure so there is potential money still to be made. The Local Government should be investing in these day centres not closing them. I would have thought that we should be helping people remain in their own homes and support family carers who need that respite. The Swallows Day Centre provides a home from home and the difference between The Swallows and most other day centres is that the centre takes on clients with extra needs such as people that need feeding etc. For anyone moving from The Swallows with certain needs they will need to travel a distance to find an alternative day centre. Why then is this not an important issue! I would be happy to talk about how it is affecting my family too. Please help!

To protect Crossbones Graveyard and Memorial Garden as a key heritage, cultural, community and spiritual asset.

It is important to make these routes accessible and safe, that are marked routes in Blue (The Thin Blue Line), the route at present only goes to Rycroft Cemetery. We want users of the route to be able to get from Pelsall Station Rd via a cycle crossing at Station Rd, Rushall then via to Cartbridge Lane South, on to a shared cycle/pathway along Lichfield Rd to the Walsall Arboretum or via Butts Street along Upper Foster Street to Walsall Town Centre or onto the existing shared cycling/pathway to Walsall College

Without urgent action, we fear the situation will deteriorate, as the 2018 Lancet ‘Countdown on health and climate change’ noted: A lack of progress in reducing emissions and building adaptive capacity threatens both human lives and the viability of the national health systems they depend on, with the potential to disrupt core public health infrastructure and overwhelm health services. Hence we are calling for Barnet Council to join the 60+ councils across the UK who have already declared a climate emergency, as a step towards creating a carbon neutral borough by 2030. This action is an important step towards mitigating the adverse effects such as heat stress on the elderly, air pollution on children, and other health issues which we are increasingly encountering. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736%2818%2932594-7/fulltext

It is important as this the local practice for most of the village and has been for over 100 years also the community don’t have great access to travel to other practices it has been bad enough with the cuts to services vital to the community.

The Hadlow SpeedWatch team together with our Parish Council have begun a campaign to reduce the speed limit through Hadlow village centre to 20mph. Also to reduce the 40mph to 30mph along the A26 entering and exiting Hadlow village. These reduced speed limits will make Hadlow a safer place for young and old alike. We NEED YOUR SUPPORT, so please complete our online petition and help us get the support of the Council to make Hadlow a safer place for all. Many thanks for your help
