This is so important to supporting local drummers, supporting the local store so it doesn’t disappear forever!  We’ve lost so many drum stores around us throughout the years… The only one left is Play Music Today Norwich… We need this to be the reliable place where everyone can see someone face to face for advice, the things you need right at your finger tips and not rely on the web/online, which is becoming so easy to do now. But, by doing this, it adds to returns, not being able to try products out before they buy or even see them in the flesh! It brings the community together and we can start talking face to face once again! 

It is a danger to life and quite scary for children some as young as 14 to cross that road without any safety precautions 

Standing charges for gas and electric were abolished in 2009 due to the financial crash, under the previous Labour Government. Standing charges have doubled in ten years. They are crippling the whole country particularly those on benefits, the elderly, people with disabilities and people on low incomes. The current Labour government has raised them again. If standing charges were removed the country would be able to heat their homes over the winter months. The whole country is will be paying £362 per year just to have access to gas and electric,which is an essential commodity. 

I would say that people need to recognise that animals as well as people feel pain and suffering and should not be subject to and more than they already experience through the rearing process for food.

Since the scheme was closed in 1994 the guarantor (government) have taken a total of £3.2 billion from the investment reserve and are to take another £2.3 billion in 2033.  The guarantor had a pension contribution holiday of about 7/8 years before 1994. Hence   for over 40 years the government have never contributed to the scheme but continue to profit from it.  At the recent Labour Party conference Ed Milliband committed “to finally deliver justice to the mine workers and their families”. However the labour government appear to have overlooked the BCSSS and are only engaged with the MPS.  Many people had their pensions moved from MPS to BCSSS, as their roles in the industry changed.  Both schemes have broadly similar aims, to provide pensions for retired staff from the coal mining industry. The government to “deliver justice” to all mineworkers must deal with BCSSS as it is with MPS and make the necessary changes to no longer profiteer from the BCSSS. 

The insurance needs to be lowered as it is too high for young drivers to pay! There are people out there who struggle with money but want to be able to drive and get out to be independent. Young people want to be independent and get out on their own! 

Katie Hopkins is a well known far right promoter and has somehow thrived by making a career from spewing hate. In fact, in 2021 she was voted Britain's most hated woman. Her ideals are intentionally provocative and has been banned from most social media for breaking rules for Hateful content. She has also called for a Final Solution to be put in place.  I fear our wonderful town of Great Yarmouth, a much loved family tourist destination is being divided by hate and I believe she will further intensify that with her venom for all our communities.

Without a permanant home, the risk here is that Tony will lose his beloved boat that has become a feature of Eastbeach.

Social Prescribers have been at the heart of our community, helping individuals navigate challenges such as mental health struggles, elderly isolation, homelessness, and the ongoing cost-of-living crisis. They connect people to vital resources, including food banks and employment support, all while strengthening community bonds. According to The BMJ, evaluating Social Prescribing Link Workers (SPLWs) too early risks overlooking their full potential. They recommend extending the evaluation period by at least two more years to conduct a thorough review of their impact. Let’s ensure these dedicated professionals can continue their essential work.
