David Cameron announced we’ll welcome 20,000 more Syrian refugees. But there’s a catch. This will take 5 years, leaving thousands of refugees in limbo. It’s now up to us to show that in cities, towns and villages all across the country we’re ready to welcome people now. Aylan, the toddler who drowned fleeing Syria, was just three years old. His town was under attack by Isis. His five year old brother and his mum also died trying to reach safety.We don't want Britain to be the kind of country that turns its back as people drown in their desperation to flee places like Syria. So let's stand up for Britain's long tradition of helping refugees fleeing war. Let's show the Prime Minister that we, the people of the UK, are proud to do our part and provide refuge to people in their hour of need.

A few weeks ago I helped my girlfriend to review her contract with BT as it was coming to a close and they were going to raise the charges considerably for what was always a poor service. Unfortunately the switch-over date was before the end of the BT contract. Imagine our shock when she received a demand from BT for £82 for cancelling the remaining £32 worth of services! When I queried this, they said it was in the contract that there was a £65 charge for the router for terminating early in addition to the cancellation charge for services. The charge for the router applies even if you switch the day before the contract ends. After over an hour on the phone they were still insisting that this charge was fair and reasonable even though Ofcom guidance says: "this charge is fair if: you know what the charge is and it was made clear to you before you bought the contract the charge is not more than the amount you owe for the remaining months of your minimum contract period." (Quoted from the citizens' Advice Website: https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/consumer/phones-tv-internet-and-computers/problems-with-contracts-packages-and-offers/cancelling-your-tv-phone-or-internet-contract/) Clearly BT are making a lot of money out of punitive exit charges hidden in their terms and condition and are clearly in breach of Ofcom guidance which they say they adhere to. Please support me in exposing this shameless rip-off the great British public. Maybe you have also had to pay under this penalty clause?

You know when it's lunch time and you are walking down the street, wondering what to eat, and you stumble across either a McDonalds or a freshly made falafel from the market? What is your gut instinct? Which one do you choose? Falafel, right...? Because McDonalds is pumped full of pesticides, chemicals & toxins and NOBODY wants that inside their body... again, am I right? Well luckily you had a choice here. You could have chose either the toxic waste or the delicious, freshly made, goodness. You had a choice. Well the Transatlantic Trade & Investment Partnership (TTIP) is taking away our freedom of choice. What this agreement means is that the standard of food quality in our supermarkets will degrade. Meat, Vegetables, Fruit - the essentials - will be GM'd, pumped full of chemicals & injected with antibiotics. The British Government want to lower its standard of food by creating an agreement with the US to implement their standards. So remember that choice between McDonalds and Falafel? Well, now it's tea time and you have no choice other than to eat McDonalds for dinner. We want Bristol to be free from this hell, do you? If so, Stand Here for Change. https://www.facebook.com/Standhereforchange?fref=ts http://www.iatp.org/documents/10-reasons-ttip-is-bad-for-good-food-and-farming

Smart meters only record electricity used and not the excess electricity generated by small generators like personal homes with solar panels. The government pays a feed-in tariff but the excess electricity is still being placed on the national grid and sold by electricity companies when they have not paid for it. This is theft, pure and simple. Stop this theft by ordering all smart meters to record both incoming and outgoing electricity and make the electricity companies pay for the excess being generated or deduct the excess from the incoming electricity.

It has a more unifying theme than the UK Anthem

I can barely contain my frustration and sadness at our political leadership that in a democratic society can force unsafe working practices and unilateral pay cuts on a group of dedicated, committed and highly trained caring professionals.

In my experience, my partner of the age of 31 started to have irregular bowel movements and having pains in his legs. So my partner visited the GP numerous times, GP taking varies blood samples and nothing came from it.... so after a few more visits to the GP and A&E, my partner was finally admitted to hospital, after a few tests and scans, my partner was diagnosed with stage 4 Bowel cancer in Oct 2014. All the symptoms of Bowel cancer started a few months before diagnosis. After a few months after a procedure to remove the primary cancer, my partner started chemo to help reduce or stop the spread of the cancer. Unfortunately my partner passed away in June 2015. As the cancer was very aggressive after chemo have finished, the chemo was used to give my partner the best quality of life. And extend my partner life for 8/9 months. If the GP recognised the symptoms earlier, my partner would had a greater chance of survival. But our GP just ignored it.. I feel disappointed and shocked that his happened and I don't want to see this happening to another else. So we need to persuade the NHS to reduce the age of the free screening test to ANY age and for over 60's. Thank you for reading why this is important to me. Keendy Chan

KCC’s Proposed modifications to the Kent Minerals and Waste Local Plan (MWLP) 2013-30. state that subject to certain conditions, planning permission will be granted for proposals associated with the exploration, appraisal and development of oil, gas and unconventional hydrocarbons. This blanket approach ignores the inherent risks of fracking which have been well documented around the world. The dangers are real and critical. Consultation on the subject has been buried in obscurely worded documents that will have successfully slipped below the radar of most of the residents of Kent. This is not an acceptable democratic approach. KCC must ensure they represent the views of the residents and land-owners of Kent before permitting any fracking activity to take place on Kentish soil.

Oliver Campbell was convicted because he suffered from a brain injury and is of low IQ and very suggestible. He 'confessed' to murder to the police in the absence of his solicitor. His co-defendant, Samuels, also convicted of murder, told the police that Oliver wasn't present at the crime and had nothing to do with it, but because he didn't give evidence at the trial, the jury was never aware of this. Since then Samuels has repeated that Oliver is innocent, but the CCRC refuses to use this evidence as grounds to refer the case for a second appeal. Oliver has now been released, but still seeks to have his murder conviction overturned. Back in 2002 A television investigation cast doubt on the murder conviction and produced a documentary as part of the series Rough Justice showing their findings......... (the following is an extract from an old article) Oliver Campbell has been in jail for 10 years of a life sentence for the murder of an East End off licence owner, Baldee Hoondle, during a robbery in July 1990. Although Campbell confessed to the crime under interrogation, his lack of legal representation at the time and the strategy employed by the police to gain a confession from a 20-year-old man of limited mental ability have already been said to cast doubt on the case against him. Campbell has since persistently protested his innocence. Next Sunday the BBC programme Rough Justice will present an analysis which challenges the prosecution's case. It contains a statement from an accomplice to the robbery which, if true, exonerates Campbell, and it claims to be able to name the person who fired the fatal shot. A crucial piece of evidence was a baseball cap dropped by the murderer as he ran from the off licence. During interrogation, the police told Campbell that his fingerprints were found at the scene and the hairs on the cap matched his. In fact, the forensic tests had not been completed. When they were, no fingerprints of Campbell were found and the hairs were not his. There is, allegedly, no forensic evidence linking him to the scene. Later, at an identity parade, neither of the two witnesses to the crime picked out Campbell as the man in the cap. The two robbers were said to be 5ft 10in or 5ft 11in; Campbell is 6ft 3in. Campbell is left-handed while the shot was fired most probably by a right-handed man. Campbell had lived in a number of foster homes and is claimed to be borderline mentally defective. An accomplice to the crime, Eric Samuels, who was sentenced to five years for robbery, said that Campbell was not the killer. But his evidence was never heard in court. Campbell may have contributed to the police case by admitting to knowledge of the crime which he had actually got from a BBC Crimewatch programme.

The extensive resources and experienced staff within Enfield Local Studies Centre and Archives are the heritage jewel in the crown for the Borough of Enfield. The Council is keen to use them to publicise themselves yet with no forethought of true costs plans to render these services virtually unusable. Other archives have tried digitalisation at great expense. This is discrimination against older people and others who do not have access to and cannot afford the internet. Ancestry.co.uk will not provide free access, apart from their free library edition when accessed in a library, certainly NOT at home which would have to be subscription based. This centre also obtains grants to interview local people about their pasts - specifically WW1 and WW2. These intergenerational projects involve the whole community and provides a historical resource for future generations. I have undertaken some of the interviewing so I have witnessed the value of information given and the pleasure local residents have experienced in telling their stories. Please also take part in the council consultation which closes on 18 October 2015.
