The building of a three-story GP surgery is being proposed to replace three of the four surgeries in Salisbury, with the favoured location situated south of Lime Kiln Way to the west of Odstock Road, grid reference SU145282. Just three years ago the proposed site was designated a County Wildlife Site, and it supports a large population of wildflowers, insects, and birds. This site is of great importance not just because of its beauty and the luxury of having a patch of natural meadow on Salisbury’s doorstep, but also due to the sad fact that in the last 70 years Britain has lost 97% of its wildflower population[1]. Even if you do not have a particularly strong feeling towards wildflowers, you must appreciate the sheer importance of having a site like this to support insects and the birds that depend on them. Other options for the site’s location include the now-empty Friends Provident buildings in Castle Street, and the agricultural field directly opposite the proposed site, to the east of Odstock road. In total there are 17 proposed sites, with Lime Kiln Way being preferred presumably because it is cheaper to build on as it is owned by the Council. This proposed site will inevitably lead to increased traffic at the already highly-congested Harnham interchange, which would in turn lead to difficulties getting ambulances to and from Salisbury District Hospital as residents would need to get buses or taxis to get there. Though we all understand the need for a new surgery in Salisbury, our argument is that the currently-favoured site is not suitable. As a local resident I have seen many oil beetles there (three of the UK’s native oil beetles are extinct, and the remaining five species are on the decline[2]), among the numerous species of wildflowers, and the Red Bartsia Bee is also a resident to the site. The land surrounding the site supports breeding birds such as the curlew, lapwing, snipe, redshank, and turtle doves. This is a small, precious refuge of natural green space that is incredibly rare to find in a city – especially one undergoing concentrated housing development like Salisbury. On behalf of my fellow residents in Harvard Heights and East Harnham (both areas share boundaries to the Lime Kiln Way site), I implore Salisbury City Council and local MP John Glen to look more closely into more suitable, alternative locations, and preserve the rare habitat that we can still enjoy in Salisbury. The Lime Kiln Way site offers a sanctuary for flora and fauna to thrive in an area left largely undisturbed by human activity, and future generations will be thankful for us having protected it. Thank you for taking the time to consider this petition.

This Friday, thousands of people will be flocking online to cash in on the sales, it’s known as “Black Friday”. But while the bargains keep customers happy, employment loopholes mean that drivers for the delivery company Hermes could earn less than the minimum wage and go hours without a break. Hermes Parcelnet Ltd has already been reported to HMRC by the DWP for this practice but the process takes time. Please help the couriers of this exploitative company by signing this petition.

Waitrose should not be supporting a newspaper that is so blatantly promoting hate and bigotry. Waitrose is part of the John Lewis family who are proud to be inclusive of their staff and have strong foundation in cooperative working. Promoting the Mail is fundamentally against their brand.

To challenge the growing attitude that rape and mysogonistic is acceptable in this country and to protect vulnerable people ro have or may be the victims of rape and mysogony.

Because rape is never a joke I find it utterly disgusting they can even think about making these and selling them.Explain what's funny about this ? How can you really think it's ok to sell this ? Sending the message that if somebody's drunk no means yes it's utterly disgusting. Guessing you've never been the victim or seen the devastation of rape

The Citadel building is of historical significance. The plans to demolish it without any notification of what will replace the site is not acceptable. Potential developers should meet and consult with the community, to discuss their wishes for the building, before any action is taken.

There is an urgent need for the Prime Minister to respond appropriately to yesterday's High Court judgement. Every PM's first responsibility, beyond any narrow party consideration, is to uphold the rule of law and defend the independence os the judiciary. Mrs May should make crystal clear , however inconvenient it may be for her, firstly that the judges responsibilty is to interpret the law and secondly that it is her rsponsibilty to work within the law. The outpouring of hate and of death threats together with the ignorant attacks on the judges represent a very real threat to peace and stability. We have already had one MP murdered. There is now a real danger that individuals who are perhaps both hot-headed and ignorant of our constitution will be led to believe that direct action is being being sactioned and is therefore justified. The stability of any society depends upon respect for the law. Politicians of all parties have a dury to come together to defend the rule of law. Mrs May's silence is an incitement to anarchy. .
