Their actions are morally corrupt and fraudulent as they continue to award themselves full pay and more importantly are putting the lives of citizens in danger as the health service has no leadership. They did not inform the electorate that this would be something that they would do if people voted for them and so therefore have mislead the N Ireland voters.

Classes are being closed without consultation or preparation. This is affecting non exam classes where adult learners are developing skills and social contacts that are vital to their well being.

This game is of complete bad taste, an irresponsible game imprinting the idea that 'war', i.e killing is a an 'game' to play in both its suggestive name and in the nature of this game. 'Game Of War' is desensitizing the players to real life actions such as War and killing. This theory has been tried, tested and proven on numerous occasions and yet these games still carry suggestive names and through the bad nature of these games which can and has for some transpired into real life events. In this case War.

To avoid or at least mitigate the continuing disenfranchisement of those who often do not vote, not from ignorance or inertia, but due to circumstances which make registering relatively complicated or impracticable - people who rent short term, people who have just moved, students away from home, etc. (cf. Danny Dorling, The i paper 2 Oct 2015). Areas where more people are owner-occupiers could end up with more MPs per person - perhaps 1 MP per 60,000 eligible voters as opposed to 1 MP per 80,000 in an area of mostly rented accommodation, or with many students, or with more deprivation. A fair democracy should represent everyone, regardless of the relative stability of their lives.

The police refuse to give chase due to liability issues, this allows unlicensed, un protected , un insured thieves to ride motorcycles dangerously within our communities with no recourse to their actions. Motorcycle theft is now at an epidemic proportion in Merseyside as the villans know that unless they allow themselves to be stopped the police will not act.The government have increased the tests for motorcyclists the test now costing hundreds of pounds, insurance premiums are on the rise due to thefts and our communities are in danger from unlicensed motorcycle thieves. There is no longer any point for motorcyclists to bother getting licenses, insurance, tax or MOT's as the only time you can be challenged by a police officer is if you allow them to stop you. Thieves are fully aware of the polices policy and as such ride unabated through our streets un challenged. This must stop

Hackney has its eyes on growing land values in this fast gentrifying London borough. It plans to demolish three primary schools and carve up the plots, building private homes for sale on designated education land - selling off the playgrounds and digging up the trees to build luxury flats. The new schools will be rebuilt on a fraction of the original sites, some with twice as many pupils squeezed in. The number of private luxury flats crammed in doesn’t leave room for much else. At the first proposed school, the play spaces are on the roof, in permanent shadow of the towers. The residents will be able to look right down on top of the school. As for the classrooms, there aren’t many windows. The corridors are internal, artificially lit rat-runs. The first proposed school is opposite a park, but south-facing, high-rise residential towers will block all the natural daylight. Ironically, residential towers on this site were demolished 20 years ago as a sign of progress. My son’s current school, Nightingale Primary, is not perfect. But it has dignity as a school, and room to play: There’s a grassy hill with enough bushes and trees for a game of hide and seek, plus a bee hive, kitchen garden, football pitch and three surfaced play areas, one for nursery, one for reception and one for everyone else. All of this will be sold off to build flats that likely will be sold for 'investment' - it may be that no one actually even lives there. Children spend 30 per cent of their life in school, with profound effects on their health and development. A 2007 Danish study showed that fresh air ventilation rates are linked to pupil performance. In a study of 2,111 Spanish schoolchildren, time spent in (not near) green spaces reduced behavioural and emotional problems, reducing hyperactivity and improving ADHD scores. A six-year American study on 905 Massachusetts elementary schools found pupils in schools with more ‘greenness’ scored higher in standardised tests. Chinese scientists discovered a 23 per cent reduction in shortsightedness among children who spend an additional 40 minutes in the sun. In a wealthy city such as London, there is no excuse for such poor stewardship of a land asset that, once sold, will be gone forever. With the shortage of school places, we will need education land to build on. We once battery-farmed hens until it was found to be too cruel. Are we going to battery-farm our children? Please help us stop the Hackney Learning Trust.

ITs. important because the BBC is now having to make up the shortfall in income from the over 75s instead of the government, so more cuts in the BBC services to meet this cost. Many pensioners are strong supporters of the independent and wide ranging services provided by the BBC and many could easily afford the monthly DD of about £12.

High speed broadband internet and mobile networks connect people, they spur economic development, improve education, health care, and environmental sustainability. Without this kind of infrastructure, many rural and under-served communities and their residents remain at a disadvantage, unable to access the benefits or opportunities available to already “connected” communities. Broadband and mobile reception in some areas of Suffolk is as good as non-existent. Even checking emails for some people is an almost impossible task. This stifles business growth, disadvantages our educational institutions and disconnects our communities. By 2017 we are promised that both poor downloads speeds and the phenomenal inequality of those who are connected and those who are not, will be things of the past, and that 95% of the country will have access to superfast broadband. Please don't let vast swathes of Suffolk be within that remaining 5% not-spot.

Writers who are not white men have contributed hugely to our understanding and appreciation of poetry, and it is unforgivable and unrepresentative to exclude them from a national celebration of poetry. Women and people of colour have been consistently ignored, sidelined and poorly treated in academic and arts circles, often not being taken as seriously as white men doing the same things as us to a similar or even lower standard. As TV licence fee payers, we have a right to be fairly represented and to see ourselves - and a true reflection of the arts world - in the programming we pay for.

Jeremy Corbyn's political enemies are seeking to undermine his position as Labour Leader and have chosen nuclear weapons as their attack platform. We must not allow them to get away with it. Some helpful advice from a supporter - a great way to get this petition circulating widely is to share on comments on relevant online newspaper articles! For those of you that have the time .... Facebook 'misbehaviour'. A number of supporters have reported that Facebook is not sharing this petition. I have tried to do it myself and failed with a very unusual message. The petition has also 'dropped off' The Ecologist's timeline. I have now re-posted on Facebook with a perma-URL of https://www.facebook.com/TheEcologist/posts/10152959345741618 . You should be able to share from there. Either that or just copy the petition URL in the browser bar to your timeline.

The wealthiest Englishman in this country, the Duke of Westminster, whose property company, the Grosvenor Estate, made half a billion pounds gross profit in their last financial year, want to redevelop six small independent galleries on the Pimlico Road, London, two of which have been trading from the same galleries for 50 years between them. The proposed redevelopment will oust many from their homes, demolishing their small 19th century galleries, retaining the facades, to create three vast showrooms by incorporating a 175 year old timber yard, the last remaining timber yard from the early Victorian period still in use today for its intended purpose. -- Please see attached articles: www.thepimlicoroad.com/newsons-yard NEW ARTICLE: http://www.antiquestradegazette.com/news/2016/jan/27/pimlico-dealers-protest-against-redevelopment/ https://londonhistorians.wordpress.com/2015/07/23/sigh-more-luxury-flats-pimlico-this-time/ http://homesandproperty.co.uk/property-news/news/duke-westminster-gives-pimlico-small-shopkeepers-boot-make-way-large-stores-and-luxury-flats http://www.thepimlicoroad.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Pimlico-Development-A-Traders-Point-of-view_edited-2.jpeg World Of Interiors article on the Timber Yard by Phillip Davies 'Logging the Past' October 2015 RELATED CONTENT: http://spitalfieldslife.com/2016/02/02/the-creeping-plague-of-ghastly-facadism/

Hounslow Council has invited a small number of residents from Church Street, North Street, Park Road and the roads accessed by those streets to have their say on the planned closure of Church Street to vehicles. This is your opportunity to provide your view. The Twickenham Road is heavily congested with 18,000 vehicles and cyclists using it every day and is already full to capacity according to Hounslow Council’s own traffic report. The proposal to close Church Street will push up to 2,015 more vehicles onto the Twickenham Road and South Street during rush hour times, gridlocking the road and reducing pedestrian and cyclist visibility. It will also increase pollution in the area. There is already significant local concern about traffic management on the Twickenham Road, including the use of roundabouts, the no-right turn from Spur Road onto the London Road, the Twickenham Road junction with Park Road and the junction at the bottom of Worton Road. Church Street is only one of the many roads affected by these issues. Five schools (Smallberry Green, Isleworth Town, Gumley House, St Mary’s and the Blue School) and West Middlesex Hospital are located on this stretch of road. The roads immediately adjoining the Twickenham Road (St John’s, Linkfield, Amhurst, the Teesdales, Worple, Algar, Byfield) are already subject to considerable rat running. With delays on the Twickeham Road and South Street expected to increase by 142% upon closure, even more frustrated drivers are likely to make their way onto our residential streets. Whilst the emergency services make their way through most things, the gridlock will likely affect response times. Hounslow Council has said that the proposal to close Church Street on 7 December is a “temporary trial” of 18 Months to see if road users change their “travelling habits”. But how can the parents and children of the five schools on these roads together with hospital staff and patients “change their traveling habits”? Local residents will still need to get about and people will still want to visit and use the amenities of Syon Park. Hounslow Council has said that it will not stop the “trial” once they have started it but confirm that the closure will cause significant disruption. Our argument is that Hounslow Council has to look at the area as a whole and take all of the above factors into consideration. Please show your support and sign this petition to make sure that your voice is heard.
