  • DEMAND THAT AIR RIFLES ARE BANNED
    I came for my lunch today and found Buster (a cat that adopted us in distress, we cared for him and got him well), lying in the road having been shot with by a .22 airgun pellet in his neck. I have had to have him put to sleep as a result of this injury. There is no need for the public to own an airgun and I believe that they should be treated as a firearm and the police should have more power to arrest and prosecute people who cause injury with these weapons.

  • Wick people want their pool back
    Wick pool was built for the people by the people on land donated to the community and the people of Wick raised the money over 20 years to build it. When the School pool fell into disrepair the Public Pool was used by the school-children. A new School-build was later proposed to include a new pool and library. But the public pool was to be sold. Despite a petition from over half the adult population, the Highland Council's proposal to sell the Public Pool on its prime riverside site (and move the library) went ahead. There has been little public consultation, public concerns have been ignored, information is difficult to find. We don't know: what access there will be for adult swimmers, many of whom like myself use the pool to support their health and fitness how those who use the disabled facility will be able to use the new pool what transport would be available or when how the sale money will be spent if this sale is forced through. Now there are problems over the design of the new pool which renders it less suitable. Where we had, though the efforts of the people of Wick, two pools in full use, we are now offered part time use of a pool in a school in a less accessible place. Many people have signed an on-line petition through 38 Degrees. But not everyone is on the internet, so there is a paper petition in some cafes in Wick. Also if you know anyone who cant use the internet but wants to petition for their pool, it would be great if you could help them sign on 38 Degrees within the next 2 weeks. Many thanks for all the support, This is not a good deal for us. We want our pool back.

  • Turn the Blundell Arms into a community pub
    The area around the Blundell provides a focus for the community. With the pub now closed and boarded off due to vandalism, the scout hut and Air Training Corp are both vulnerable to the increased vandalism the Winter will bring. The takeaway and shop become unsafe in the evening especially during Winter months due to increased youth disorder. Bring back the Dell.

  • Tetrapak Recycling in Eastleigh Borough
    Tetrapaks are generally environmentally friendly, they save food waste and provide easy transportation when full or flat-packed. There is a recycling plant in Halifax who deal with 100% recycling of the components of Tetrapak. Much of Tetrapaks can be successfully recycled into useful products and do not need to be burnt with the black bin waste.

  • Chang the voting system to Proportional Representation (PR)
    We have seen politics take a shift in the UK, but I believe if we keep the same old voting system, then real change will not happen. Parliament must be more accountable to the people and the people must feel they can be a full member in the process. The recent ER referendum showed people what to be engaged with issues, but first past the post creates safe seats and people feel disenfranchised and don't bother voting. PR will give people the same connection as the referendum did.

  • Separated Fathers for Legal Aid
    To readdress the balance of separated fathers that are either denied contact or seek to resolve contact issues with their children. To send a clear message to mothers that they can no longer dictate how and when fathers have contact with their children. To help separated fathers defend themselves against reprehensible false claims of DV. To help represent those fathers seeking justice within a system that considers that nurture can only be provided by a female. To help separated fathers secure a lead nurturing role in the lives of their children. To assist with representation against those ex partners that seek to strip fathers of their assets during financial settlements and continue to live a life of being financially maintained. Because by definition a father’s role to provide financially for his family whilst nurturing his children is an equal or greater contribution to society. Because fathers are not equal in the UK.

  • Stop GTR/Southern withdrawing West London Line services
    Southern's West London Line services between Clapham Junction and Milton Keynes are a vital mainline link between not only North and West / South London suburbs but also destinations further afield including Northampton, Milton Keynes and Brighton. Cancellation of these services will have an immediate effect on a large and ever increasing number of passengers utilising this very popular route especially during peak hours. The alternative travel arrangements proposed by Southern are much slower and often more expensive routes via London Overground or London Underground. This represents a considerably less attractive proposition for many people, especially for the elderly or those with reduced mobility.

  • General Election after new Conservative leader is chosen
    The Brexit referendum result has meant that we, the British people have no idea what our government plans to do on our behalf. We need a say in the changes that are to come about.

  • Make Bromley council provide housing for disabled children.
    Our family have been on the Bromley housing register, since 19/01/15 and we have been given the highest priority (1) for housing, which should mean a short wait. We have a severely disabled two and a half year old son, (Teddy) and have been told that it will be a long wait until we can get a house. While we wait, we are sleeping on the living room floor, as he is too big to carry upstairs and the problem is only getting worse as he gets bigger. The council knows of our situation and has said that they can’t do anything because there are not enough houses for the thousands of people on the list and even less available to those requiring adaptions. They have assessed us as needing a lift, wheelchair access, ramps, a wet room or adapted bath and hoists. In the year and a half we've been on the list, There have only been two suitable adaptable houses made available in Bromley, the last was over a year ago. This was one of the managers response to our MP who wrote to Bromley council on our behalf: "I’m afraid the continuing extreme scarcity of such valuable properties (which is an even bigger problem to us than the mismatch between supply and demand for general needs properties) continues to mean that very vulnerable families are suffering a long delay before being able to move from very difficult circumstances." I don't believe this is acceptable for my family or the many others in the same situation, facing the same insurmountable challenge. We feel really trapped by the whole situation as everyone we have spoken to has refused or been unable to help in any practical way. Please sign this petition to support our family and force Bromley council to open their eyes to this neglect.

  • Ban lorries from Honor Oak Road
    1,200 children go to primary school on, or within 150 metres of, Honor Oak Road. This residential road is being misused as a cut through by large, highly polluting vehicles from the South Circular. The walk to school is dangerous and stressful. The pavements are very narrow in places and parents have been hit by the wing mirrors of lorries. Our air quality study found that pollution levels on the pavements outside Fairlawn School breached EU limits for Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2). Children and the elderly are most vulnerable to high levels of pollution.

  • Amend the Harrison Gibson development proposal in Ilford High Road
    The excessive height and bulk of the 30 and 16 storey towers will have a severely detrimental effect on the amenity of the area in terms of overshadowing, lack of privacy, wind tunnelling effects, skyline. Part of the access to the proposed building would be from Havelock Street. The whole of this street and adjacent areas would need significant improvement before people would even consider using this street on a daily basis. A very localized improvement to the street, near the entrance to the building would not nearly be enough. 32 car parking spaces for a development of this size is woefully inadequate. This is not central London and you cannot prevent people from owning cars. If people own cars, they will find somewhere else to park, often leading to conflict with others. There are concerns regarding how much of the housing will be affordable. If there is some affordable housing, the question remains will it be separated from the market-rate housing. There are different open areas proposed in the development, so other questions are: how will these areas be controlled and maintained and will all residents, including those in affordable housing be able to use them?
