It is discrimination, like saying no Irish or no Jews. The very poorest and sometimes the hardest working people are discriminated against when they try to find a rented home. Estate agents will turn them away because tenants on housing benefit are not allowed on most buy to let mortgages. The poorest, often disabled or people working hard on low incomes already too poor to own their own home are denied a basic human right which is to have a home. Estate agents will usually ask for references, and conduct a credit check of any prospective tenant and the tenant will have to find a considerable sum of money upfront so why is this extra caution required. It is prejudice pure and simple.

We need far more spaces for bees to breed and forage - instead of destroying their habi­tats, how about some serious Millbrook bee care! Many in our community take joy in the grasses, wild flowers and wildlife that are increasing here by the year. Red clover, self heal, violets, kidney vetch, cow parsley, silverweed, forget-me-nots, buttercups, daisys, dandelions and even cuckoo flower (lady’s smock) love the dampish grasses along the fence line! Leaving it un-cut does not cause obstruction with sight-line to traffic, dogs must be on leads here, so no dog mess and I've never seen it with any rubbish! What I do see is a fantastic educational resource for our children, a place of bees, butterflies and sloe worms - and a big buzzard that lives in the trees above! DON'T DESTROY THEIR HABITAT!

As all the animals charities miss out on grants from the uk people's national lottery and why cart we let them apply for grants from the uk national lottery it's about time animal charities should be able to apply and more uk citizens would probably start playing again.

Mike Ashley has made himself a billionaire through illegal and unethical practices. The crimes perpetrated at Sports Direct have been in effect admitted, as widely reported in the national press this week, before a parliamentary select committee. This petition calls upon our director of public prosecutions to hold Mike Ashley to account for these crimes.

At the moment everywhere in the NHS clinical care is provided according to need, if you need a hip operation you join a queue, if you need a dressing it will be arranged when necessary, if your GP thinks you might have cancer he can refer you urgently, counsellors ring you up and asses your needs before timetabling sessions. If you phone your GP for an appointment for an itch you've had for 3 years they will likely schedule an appointment for next week or the week after. If you report your child has a high temperature, a purple rash and a headache they'll respond immediately. Everywhere except that is, in A/E departments. There, because of a ministerial target introduced 16 years ago, long before the change in GP out of hours contracts, everyone has to have their problem dealt with within 4 hours. There has never been any scientific basis for this target. This means your piles you may have had for 4 years, a muscle sprain that happened 6 weeks ago on a run, or your hay fever that you have had every year for a decade will be dealt with inside 4 hours. No matter how minor, no matter how long you've had your symptoms. This is care being directed for purely administrative reasons, not clinical. Because it is a political target it becomes a political football, Secretaries of State will divert hundreds of millions of pounds into these departments to avoid lurid headlines of "long waits in A/E". Please do not misunderstand I am not advocating 82 year olds with broken hips having to wait, what I am advocating is treatment on clinical grounds. The diversion of all this money and resource is robbing the NHS of valuable care that could be delivered elsewhere. Because the target is so widely publicised the public are aware of it and not unreasonably use it to their advantage, why wait for a GP appointment when you just pitch up at A/E with a guarantee of being seen. No wonder more and more people turn up. Whats even better is that you decide when to turn up. It is a fact that A/E attendance rates can be tracked against major events such as football matches, or climactic events in TV series . This results in yet more money being poured in to bolster the target, its a vicious cycle without end. Since its introduction in 2000 no end of new ideas; Walk in Centres, Darzi Centres, Minor Injury Units, poly clinics, GP led Health Centres etc and no end of new money has been able to reduce the inexorable rise in A/E attendances. Care in A/E departments, whilst of high quality, is not appropriate for many of the conditions they deal with. The chances of having tests and investigations is much greater than when the same condition is dealt with by a doctor who knows you, rather than the next one on the shift. They deliver formulaic protocol driven care which again encourages patients to go there - if I go to my GP with a cough I get advice, if I go to A/E I get an e-ray, an ECG, a blood test and an antibiotic. You can treat 4 or 5 cases of Hay fever at a GPs surgery with the money an A/E department would use to asses and treat one patient with the same condition. The 4 hour target is a political target that leads to a distortion of clinical care and can only ever result in more and more resources being diverted into them. If patients were treated on a clinical need basis, so with your 4 year old piles you will be seen but no guarantee of when, then departments could begin to allocate resource more effectively and patients might think twice about turning up in the first place. The saved money could then go to GPs where it would be more cost effectively used.

It will ultimately lead to the development of a well site that will be hydraulically fracked. I am a mother and I believe that we all have a responsibility to protect our children and our future. The independent Climate Change Committee’s (CCC) study of the environmental impact of the shale gas technology has still not been published despite a legal requirement to do so. The CCC report could have a material impact on the planning application if it is been made public in time. Under Section 49 of the new Infrastructure Act 2015, the Government must seek independent advice from Lord Deben’s Committee on whether shale gas production can be compatible with future carbon emissions targets. Barry Gardiner, Shadow Minister for Energy and Climate Change, said “The Government is now losing the trust of the public on this issue who can see that the Energy Secretary has been sitting on this independent report for 56 days whilst simultaneously threatening to impose fracking on communities against their will.” Planning Application Number 3524
