The attempt to control lobbyists enacted under the Cameron government was a travesty of the reforms proposed by a Select Committee of the Commons. Instead of restraining the activities of lobbyists on behalf of major companies, the new law only restricted the activities of firms which offered their services to commercial enterprises while simultaneously placing heavy burdens on charities, trade unions and NGOs.

Imposing these changes will cause a lot of the local drivers who make a honest living will be forced out of work, many of the residents of Rossendale depend on these local taxis, and these new proposals will wipe out the taxi trade in Rossendale.

Because Im a full time carer and my partner is not allowed an electric wheelchair because she only needs it for outside which is so unfair for her and me.

People like Sarah Stones of St Neots Cambs who is 48 and has cerebral palsy. Sarah runs her own company motivating people. Her crime was writing the wrong date in her diary and missing her assessment. For this her benefits and car were forfeited. This, in effect, would have stopped her working had it not been for the kindness of her family and friends. She is not alone and the DWP is fully aware of what is happening yet upholds the decisions of Capita. There is a total lack of empathy and compassion from them. I met Sarah when I put up a washing line and mended her gate. She is an amazing lady and i feel so helpless that this goverment is treating severely disabled people, who can and want to work, by taking away their ability to do so.

Creating jobs in a declining industry at the same time as protecting the environment

Busy Berries is an exceptional facility in a perfect setting with dedicated and caring staff. It provides a high quality, structured learning experience which is geared up to getting our children ready for nursery and school. We would like the Governing Body to take into account the impact it's closure has, not just on the 30 plus children that it will leave uprooted and without any provision in January but the wider impact that it has on the families in the community. The closure of this service will be a terrible loss to families with children at the Deanery with younger siblings and the wider community.

It is important because it fails to connect with reality. It also means that people delivering the service are expected to do an important job for a low wage and are not seen as an essential resource for keeping people in their own homes. I care about this matter as a retired member of a caring profession (nursing). It is time society at large accepted that caring costs money whether done by highly trained professionals or less qualified individuals.

Nursery Schools in Tower Hamlets and across the country are under threat of closure due to government plans for the future funding of childcare. State nursery schools have very good outcomes with regard to closing the achievement gap and supporting children with special needs. State nursery schools are legally required to employ highly-qualified teaching staff, who are proven to give young children the best opportunities for academic achievement and enabling social mobility.

There is not enough open space in this built up area, the lake planned for landfill is spring fed and will cause flooding, there is protected species ( Native Crayfish) that inhabit the lake and the wildlife surrounding it is plentiful

Public toilets are closing down or becoming expensive. It is an essential service

The University of Portsmouth informed its students via email on 7/11/2016 that both new and continuing students will be forced to pay £9,250 for the next academic year. Every year seems to hold another increase to our ever-growing piles of debt. Scrapping the maintenance grant in exchange for a bigger loan. Increasing the interest rate at which we pay them back. At the current rate tuition fees will surpass £10,000 within the next few years and I've had enough. I didn't sign up expecting my fees to increase during my time here and regardless of the fine print the University didn't communicate this information to me before starting my degree, nor did they before I started this academic year. Current students should not see a fee increase. As Faculty Representative for Technology I feel it is my duty to speak out against the Universities decision to raise fees and urge my colleagues to do the same. I've been a proud student at Portsmouth since 2014. It's ignited my passion for learning, helping others and you won't find somebody with more love for this city. It's hard to believe as somebody who left college with a BTEC in music and no sense of direction years ago I now stand to graduate at the end of my course with an integrated Masters in Mechanical Engineering. By letting these fees increase all we do is discourage people from making that leap. I've directed this petition to Paul Hayes, who spoke last year at the course rep conference, who assured me that our voice matters. This affects every student current and future and if we do not take a stand now, the problem will only grow.

In Luton this means our 6 nursery schools will close with approximately 1,300 children losing their nursery.
