Last year there was a fatal accident on Stratford Road, since then a young lad walking home from school was hit by a car. Does it take another fatality for action to be taken regarding some form of traffic calming? Living on SR, I see cars driving at very high speed everyday, if they clipped the curb they would take out a life. With the up and coming Wolverton Works the road is going to get even busier.

People in the area are suffering and are unable to receive treatment or obtain medication for even minor illnesses. They are now having to visit hospitals and walk-in centres putting mass strain on these facilities. If this issue remains unattended than it is possible that lives will be put at risk and may even result in death's!

Now hitting national & local press daily, plus radio stations is the closure of 8 public loos in Poole. They were closed without public consultation or surveys on use or possible community toilets schemes available. Visitors in Sandbanks are resorting to peeing in millionaires front gardens. Its Loo-Nacy, the locals are up in arms! As a tourist town it will die! Yet they waste £210,000 of our money on a Maritime Week, where is the logic?

We are delivery riders in Edinburgh and have presented a collective grievance letter to the company citing our concerns and requesting a meeting to address them. Deliveroo get away with avoiding giving their workers basic rights - things like sick pay, and holiday pay - by claiming we’re self-employed, even though the reality of our job expectations meets the criteria for employment. This is unfair not only to the workers, but to every business, council, or organization in the country which follow the rules - including the restaurants we deliver from. Deliveroo should not be allowed to continue undercutting other businesses, staff, and the country this way.

It's important because deducting the levy represents ill treatment of the smaller guys within construction: The subbies, one man bands and smaller businesses. It's time to put a stop to this and to take a stand against the illegal and immoral deduction.

Harmful pesticides are killing our bees at an alarming rate. They're currently banned across fields in Europe, but many garden centres are still selling flowering plants that have been treated with the killer pesticides. I'm a beekeeper, and I was really pleased this week when B&Q announced that from Feb 2018 they are going to stop their suppliers from using these pesticides on any of the flowering plants they sell. There's no reason that other garden centres can't introduce the same rule to protect our bees.

In 2011, the Scottish government proposed to harmonise pay, terms and conditions of all FE lecturers from Dumfries and Galloway all the way to Stornoway. We call on them to honour the deal, in order to protect the integrity of education and the rights of workers throughout Scotland. This strike is not just for lecturers in FE, it is for all workers throughout Scotland who refuse to accept negative changes to their terms and conditions and unfair pay.

Trafford Council have stated that from the 5th June 2017 residents will be charged extra if they want their garden waste collecting. This is a highly objectionable move by the council, which is completely unjustified, undemocratic and particularly unfair on the frail and disabled, as they would struggle to transport rubbish to their local tip. Residents are already funding waste collection via council tax, so where does it stop - extra charges for rubbish collection, education, environment, sewage, policing, fire service, housing, transport and health? Sign and stop it now!

Because it helps to stop drivers working excessively long hours to earn a living, helps them to enjoy rights that our society has worked hard to achieve and respects their place in a multi layered urban transport system

Croxteth Hall and Estate is a vital part of our community and it is essential that Liverpool City Council begin the process of finding an organisation to take over the running of the Hall and Estate. The Estate is currently losing over £1m per year, diverting much needed funds from an already overstretched council budget. It is clear that the council no longer have the will or the resources to prevent this stunning building and estate from falling further into disrepair. Opportunities for the local community are being lost due the current status and the uncertainty surrounding its future. The local community do not want to see another Stonebridge Cross, a development that has still not been completed and has not provided the associated benefits that where originally promised to the local community. We want to see the Hall and Estate put to better use, to be made into a beacon for the area and Liverpool, with access for the local community and the creation of jobs, education, training and much needed investment.

Mental health effects an amormous amount of people in the workplace. Employers do mot take you seriously, they follow the process to a limited extent. As I sufferer of depression myself , I have had first hand experience of this , no one should have to suffer in silence, or leave there jobs because of lack of understanding and support.

This an important issue as it is known as a dangerous road and many parents do not trust their children to cross the road safely, there have been many accidents along Oakfield road and often drivers are caught speeding.
