Will seriously increase the traffic and road use of Sandringham Gardens and I believe this will have huge implications on Health and Safety for the residents of Sandringham Gardens. I believe Pearce Homes have a duty of care to reconsider moving the access from Sandringham Gardens, and moving the access. This is due to the amount of children that use the Park, which is located on the main through road. This will cause massive health and safety issues for any users of the park. The road that would go through from Sandringham Gardens is too narrow to cope with potentially 176+ extra cars that would use this access (considering most households have 2 cars).

We oppose ANY building on this greenbelt land. We are trying to save our GREENBELT from an extensive plan to build 3000 LUXURY houses, shopping centre, cinema, office units and commercial units. The area in question is an area of immense beauty and has been untouched for generations - wildlife and countless plants, animals and insects live here, as well as providing peace and serenity for hundreds of local people. 3000 New luxury Home will decimate this land, cause extreme traffic problems and pollute the environment.The air around this area is already above the accepted level of pollution We would ask our representatives to contact the developer and urge them to focus on investing in developing the brown field sites and land designated for building in Airdrie This Proposed development will affect everyone, especially if you live in Carnbroe, Sikeside, Cairnhill, Brownsburn, Gartlea, Calderbank ,Chapelhall and Holytown Please visit or join our group on Facebook stop the europark development

Legal Spark was formed as a result of the crisis in legal aid. People were going without representation because they could not afford a lawyer. This is particularly the case for disabled people. No one else would do this type of work, as it was deemed too expensive, not financially viable and also too complex. Daniel Donaldson, a disabled Solicitor, set up Legal Spark with the Support of the Scottish Institute for Enterprise under their Young Innovators Challenge 2015 programme. Daniel wanted to develop creative solutions to help people access justice and to fix the exclusion that disabled people face from the legal system. Daniel spent one year talking to the Law Society about this issue, highlighting that it was important that everyone could access a lawyer. Legal Spark consulted with the Chief Executive (Lorna Jack), the Head of Professional Practice, the Registrar and the Deputy Registrar (James Ness) and the Secretary to the Civil Legal Aid Quality Assurance Committee (Hannah Sayers) amongst others. A document was prepared that explained what Legal Spark was planning to do. The Law Society accepted this document and did not object. The Law Society encouraged Legal Spark and found their approach "refreshing" and "innovative". Legal Spark was granted permission to do Legal Aid work in November 2015, and a compliance certificate was issued in December 2015. Legal Spark began helping the many disabled people that needed their help and began to have success. In April 2016, the Law Society decided that they had made an "error" and instructed Legal Spark to stop all Legal Aid work by Thursday 30 June 2016. By this stage, Legal Spark had a number of clients, with active and complex cases, some of which were about to go to Court. "A" is one such client. They had experienced awful disability discrimination from a University. They were not given adequate support to help them during a course, and had to leave. Additionally, Legal Spark uncovered evidence that the University's staff had used "unprofessional language" in their approach to "A". This case has now been lodged in Court. "B" is another client adversely affected by this decision. B is also disabled and is housebound. They had tried to find a lawyer for sometime but because of their rural location in the Highlands there were no Solicitors available to help. Legal Spark took on this case and was successful (in part) in achieving a resolution for B. However, because B had been adversely affected by a decision of Highland Council, and had lost out financially, the case may need to go to Court. B is unable to find anyone else to help them. These are only two examples of where Legal Spark is making a difference, there are others too. Since establishing Legal Spark, Daniel Donaldson has not drawn a salary and has used some of his own money to sustain the Legal Practice while it develops and is able to stand on its own feet. Legal Spark has also grown to enable it to employ staff and provide much need paid employment to some disabled people and unemployed law graduates. The Legal Aid certificate meant that Legal Spark could help people who could not access help elsewhere. Now "A", "B" and other will have to go without representation because of the Law Society of Scotland's failures. The Law Society's Chief Executive (Lorna Jack)says that they have to act in the public interest. The Director of Regulation (Philip Yelland) shares this view. 1. Where is the public interest in denying disabled people representation? 2. Also, where is the public interest is giving permission to do Legal Aid work only to revoke that permission 6 months later? The Law Society say that there are other Solicitors who can help, however this is not true. Legal Spark contacted 134 Civil Legal Aid lawyers with advertised specialism in discrimination law. Even the biggest Legal Aid firm in Scotland could not help. The Law Society has said that this will cause Legal Spark’s disabled client’s “inconvenience”. This is an offensive comment; they have never met any client, they have ignored client’s opinions, and also refused to acknowledge that they will suffer substantial prejudice in their cases because of the Law Society’s decision. This petition is addressed to the Law Society and the Scottish Legal Aid Board. It is important that you fulfil your roles correctly. Overturn your decision to stop Legal Spark doing legal aid work, remedy the mistake you have made and apologise. This is the only way you can restore public trust and continue to say you act in the public interest. Allow Legal Spark, and their clients the opportunity to continue to work together for the public interest and tackle the horrors faced by disabled people on a daily basis.

As the ringleader of the Brexit campaign he has no right to stay in the European Parliament. He is an embarrassment to the UK and offensive to our European counterparts. He has run away now that the referendum has happened as have the others, the best he could do is give up his seat in a house he doesn't want to be in. Equally he should never be allowed to stand for this role again. As his campaign was based on the lie of diverting a false amount to the NHS he should divert any pension from the EU (that he has pushed us to leave) and give it to a charity associated with the NHS.

The health of the environment is crucial to our ability to survive. Climate change is one of the biggest environmental issues facing us. In order to ensure future generations life on a healthy planet, the UK needs to make itself liable to act on the pledges made at the COP21 summit to cut carbon emissions. We cannot allow Brexit to cloud the importance of addressing the international impacts of climate change.

Major housing developments in Ilford South are being advanced by the Council at an alarming rate. In the Draft Redbridge Local Plan 2015-2030 it is proposed that 10,000 units of housing will be built in Ilford South in the next 15 years. This is about 74% of the total housing proposed for Redbridge. This is a heavy burden for the south of the borough and a bias in allocation. Ilford is at a critical point in its history where the pressure on the council to meet housing targets is driving ill-conceived and insensitive high-density developments. There are grave concerns about this due to the following: There will be a huge increase in population in the already most densely populated part of the borough. There are already pressures on public services such as education and health facilities; transport and parking and this will add to the pressures. There will be the negative effects of multiple high rise buildings in terms of overshadowing, invasion of privacy, wind tunnelling etc The high-rise buildings and the residential mix proposed are not suitable for the specific housing needs of the local area and we fear the definition of 'affordable' will simply not be realistic. As part of this plan, the development of the Harrison Gibson building in Ilford High Road is currently being consulted on. This proposal includes a high-rise of 30 storeys, the same as Pioneer Point. Please look at our sister petition regarding this. Read more in the Ilford Recorder http://www.ilfordrecorder.co.uk/news/politics/residents_fears_over_development_in_south_of_redbridge_1_4600711

The North East of England includes some of the poorest and most deprived areas of Britain and indeed of the European Union. The people here in the North East were warned that the EU would extend and that they would lose the desperately needed funds they currently receive from the EU. They voted with a promise of not just the status quo, but of improved wealth and opportunity for the working classes. This was said to be due to the British government taking back control and being able to use our government created money supply, free from EU involvement, to ensure a better life for everyone. This now needs to happen as promised not only to prevent hardship & suffering, but to give the next generation the opportunities promised. We ask for anyone who believes the justice and fairness if worth fighting for to support this campaign to get the British government to make the fair and just decision.

Hartlepool is a city of 100,000 people. Our General Hospital, later called the University Hospital of Hartlepool, covered not just that population, but another 100,000 people in towns and villages to the North of Hartlepool. Since the closure of our Accident Emergency and the moving of many of our services from our state of the art modern hospital to another hospital to the South, some fifteen miles away of Hartlepool, there have been higher than expected annual death rates; to the extent that it has become a matter of concern. it takes a full extra 30 minutes to arrive at A&E from Hartlepool, and it takes more than an hour to arrive at that same overcrowded A&E from other local areas. http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2012/07/14/article-0-141053F5000005DC-371_634x729.jpg The ill and infirm, and anyone who wishes to visit them, have a very long journeys when sick, or to visit. This is intolerable hardship when a hospital still stands which could serve all the needs of the local population. This not only increases the financial hardship in terms of travelling costs, but it increases travelling times and the need to travel for all of the staff too. To add to this all of the data regarding privatisation has shown that patients are not the first priority. Fortunately we have been promised that a fully funded national service is now within our remit and a solid possibility, and this will better serve the population and less profit will go to large business based in other countries. We ask for direct funding to again have the NHS and the Hospital which our society deserves.

*STORY BURIED BY BREXIT* Last week before the referendum vote, many of you would have been hearing about this case. Ellie Butler was removed from loving, caring grandparents who had brought her up "as their own", and handed over to her abusive parents, who terrorised and abused her emotionally and physically until she was murdered at the age of 6. Despite Ellie herself reportedly pleading with social workers not to go back to her 'parents', she was sent back to live with them by two independent, private and profit-making social workers (Services4Children), under the guidance of a judge, Mrs Justice Hogg. In what has been described as a very unusual case, the order given by the judge effectively 'wiped the slate clean' for Ellie's Father, Ben Butler, who had previously been jailed for shaking her as a baby. This meant that professionals, including school staff and local authority social services, were unable to protect Ellie from terrible abuse, due of the special order of this judge. To imagine what Ellie went through is horrifying. To be taken from her grandparents and her loving home despite pleading otherwise, and sent to these monsters: this girl was failed by the adults who were supposed to keep her safe. Ellie's grandad Neal spent his life savings fighting to prevent Ellie being sent back to her parents. Very sadly, his wife (Ellie's grandmother) died on the first day of Ben Butler's trial for murder. He had previously said that Mrs Justice Hogg would have "blood on her hands" if Ellie was returned. After Ellie's parents were convicted, Ellie's Grandad continued to advocate for his beloved granddaughter on TV and in the press, determined to let people know the truth about what had happened. He is desperate for a public enquiry, and to ensure that this can never happen again to another child. The Brexit vote has swamped the news; please don't let Ellie and her grandparents down by forgetting about them.
