The small number of charging points are being monopolised by taxi firms stopping the general public from charging their vehicles. Northumberland council blames lack of government funding. If the government wants to encourage the public to drive electric, the charging infrastructure must be improved.

Many people rely on buses for a variety of reasons. We would like to see an expansion of bus services, in consultation with the public as to where these are most needed, and a campaign for greater use, rather than admitting defeat and contributing to the decline by cutting vital services which people need. This would have benefits in terms of cutting congestion and reducing climate change as well as reducing the social isolation which will only get worse if your new timetable is enacted.

I have suffered with anxiety and depression and I think its disgusting the way people like myself are being treated its a illness that can't see but there are lots of symptoms and you go to see the doctor and they fob you off with medication so come on people get behind this and let's win something for us It's important for our well being and for our children

Companies like Amazon and the Agencies that supplies workers for these companies do not recognise the British Bank Holidays and their workers get exploited and are forced to work them on single pay unless its their natural rest days without getting any Bank Holiday benefits. Most British workers are being exploited and don't get any of the Bank Holiday benefits.

Mental health is often sidelined in NHS discussions

Radio aids and other technological devices are important for developing children's speech, understanding and attention for children with hearing loss, whether they wear hearing aids or have cochlear implants. Without them children do not have access to clear speech from the lead adult and the background noise is amplified so they are not able to differentiate between background noise and direction from an adult. This can lead to behavioural issues , delayed speech, lack of confidence and problems in developing and maintaining peer relationships.

They claim to use a "Random Number Generator" for every single spin. I personally believe these machines follow a program, though I'm sure there is a "random" element I think there's a specific piece of code imbedded deep within the program to ensure the game reaches it's revenue targets. Most fruit machines will follow a program and pay out the Jackpot when the revenue target is reached, once this Jackpot is paid the machine will then ensure customer's lose to reach the revenue target. I feel the FOBT's follow the same program and the software ensures that whatever number the customer choses they will inevitably lose. I genuinely don't think is a conspiracy theory as I don' think those involved understand the software. If they were tested by a professional independent body, some-one who understands mathematics and probability, I honestly think they'll find piece of code that contradicts the machine is completely random. I have 20 years of experience playing these machines, I'm not a disgruntled customer trying to recoup losses. There should be no time a customer should detect a pattern, no time when they know the terminal isn't being random This is hugely important in my eyes as the public are being told the machines are random and the unassuming punter will just think they're unlucky. Each spin should be independent from the last. The terminals could stay in the shops but they shouldn't be marketed as Random.

The cut will leave young people in situations of abuse, or being thrown out of their family home, more vulnerable to sleeping rough. Government cuts to social care, youth services, children’s services and advice centres mean that those who become homeless are less likely to get support to help them out of their situation. The estimated number of rough sleepers in England has doubled since 2010. This is a national issue being spearheaded from Bradford which is the youngest city in the country and will be the youngest in Europe by 2020.

Last month our respected community elder, Ras Judah Adunbi, was tasered by two police constables while peacefully taking his dog on a Saturday morning walk through our neighbourhood (Easton, Bristol). The police stopped Judah near his home, demanded to know his name and address and when Judah politely refused, which is within his legal rights, they tasered him in the face and wrongfully arrested him. Judah did NOT break any laws or rules but was treated violently and with no respect. Judah felt like he was going to die and has since suffered from a number of health complications. The incident was covered my media outlets across the Globe, including Washington Post, New York Times, CNN and BBC World News. Avon and Somerset Police dropped the charges a couple of days later and are now being investigated by IPCC. ** Ras Judah wants everyone in the community to LEARN their legal rights! If a police officer stops you and starts to ask you questions you DO NOT have to stop or answer any questions. That’s the law. The Police should stick to it. ** Key facts: - There have been at least 17 taser-related deaths in Britain since 2003, including the death of Dalian Atkinson, the former Aston Villa footballer, who died after being Tasered by police officers in August 2016. - People of African descent are three times more likely to be tasered and six times more likely to be stopped and searched than white people. - According to government figures, use of Tasers has grown over recent years, with 1,921 Taser discharges recorded by police in England and Wales in 2015. - Judah was taken to the Bristol Royal infirmary in a Police car with the Taser still dangling from his face. After being discharged later that morning he spent 10 hours at Patchway police station (Bristol). He was allowed to leave just before midnight and had to make his own way home. - On Monday 23rd Jan, Bristol's police federation chairman said the police officers involved were 'doing what the public expect of them'.

State education of school age children is supposed to be free at point of use. Even simply imposing a uniform has the effect of making parents pay a fee to claim the "free" service but some schools go further and abuse their position. By requiring uniforms be bought from the school or its appointed suppliers, schools create a monopoly. Parents are prevented from shopping around competing suppliers so are forced to pay excessively high prices. The system is wide open to corruption as schools are able to charge suppliers for the privilege of being the appointed supplier. Children of impoverished parents, who cannot afford the uniform, are penalised either by being denied an education or put into isolation. Parents are sometimes forced to choose between providing food for their families or buying a school uniform. Uniform rules are also often sexist in that they impose stricter requirements on members of one sex than they do on members of the other.

To stop families being moved for the profit of landlords!! It is only business for landlords but is a home to tenants, there should be a new scheme to allow private tenanants to buy and the government should be able to allocate another property for that landlord to rent out!!!

Reasons for Keeping Ward 15, RAH Open • Our children and the future children are the reason we have formed a campaign group. We have the support of many in our community and will continue to raise awareness and get more people involved. A move to The Queen Elizabeth University Hospital is more than a simple inconvenience, it will have a huge impact on many family's lives. Ward 15 is a safety net and a centre of excellence. It should be cultivated and encouraged to offer more services. The answer to good quality care is not centralised huge hospitals, but second to none local services. Why close such a centre of excellence, surely the service it provides to the local community should be invested in further, to increase its role and continued existence. If Ward 15 closes, in an emergency situation, a child could have an additional 30 minutes, life threatening travelling time by ambulance, car or taxi to the new Queen Elizabeth University Hospital. The cost and logistics of getting to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital from Paisley and further afield is prohibitive to a lot of people. This can have a huge impact on a child’s recovery as friends and family may not be able to visit, impacting on the children’s mental health. It is ludicrous to remove paediatric services from areas where they are most needed. More children with very complex health needs are enjoying a family life enjoyed by their peers. Many of them rely on the high quality service provided by Ward 15 to remain at home with support close at hand when they need it. The care families provide saves the NHS billions of pounds per year. “I have 5 children and my oldest is 10 and has cerebral palsy and asthma, I also have an 8-year-old who has been in the ward and a 7-year-old who has ADHD and autism. I also have 3-year-old twins one has lymphedema in her right arm and she has heart problems and has a brain haemorrhage, so you can imagine I have been in the ward loads of times, and I am in the Panda Centre every other week with appointments, SO I NEED THIS WARD TO STAY” Desperate Mum “Ward 15 saved my son when he was 11 days old, my GP referred him to the short stay with what we thought was a very bad cold. A doctor took one look at him and said he has meningitis. He is now 7 years old and has been left with complex life limiting conditions which means he is in ward 15 as an inpatient, for varying lengths of time, on a weekly basis. In the time it would take me to rush him to the QEUH my son could die! I also have an 9 year old with additional support need who also attends the ward and the Panda Centre. If the health board close ward 15 they will be signing my 7 year olds death certificate.” Karen M (founding member of Kids Need our Ward)
