SAVE ENGLISH HERITAGE. FERRING is a beautiful village on the Sussex Coast and this cottage is a landmark. Named Beehive Cottage for it's unique shape. The Government is forcing councils to build so many properties that we are in danger of losing history. Most of the new housing built in surrounding areas has yet to be sold. Councils are not building to meet the needs of people who need social housing and a lack of planning to increase infrastructure has put great strain on roads, transport, GP Surgeries, Hospitals, Schools etc. Read more here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-sussex-33835631

The Guildhall Walk Walk-In Centre is facing a possible closure due to a decision by health bosses to move the walk-in service to St Marys Hospital. It would be a tragedy if the Guildhall Walk Walk-In Centre is closed down as St Mary's already struggles to provide a service for people with minor injuries and waiting times are often long. The Guildhall Walk Walk-In Centre is very successful and is well used 8am - 8pm, 365 days a year and is available to everyone who wants to see a doctor fairly urgently but can't get in to see their registered GP. If we lose this, we will lose a well-established service and it will be much more difficult to get to see a Doctor urgently in the future. Please sign the petition and Save this Walk-In Centre. https://you.38degrees.org.uk/p/emergencydoctors

I live on a quiet residential estate literally right next to the proposed site. Thousands of people live in this area adjacent to the site. We all deserve a better quality of life than to live next door to a waste dump. Our community would suffer significantly reduced quality of life because of 24/7 noise from trucks, foul smells, debris and litter from escaped trash, increased vermin, pollutants from dust and emissions. Our residential area has a very high percentage of young children. They play outside in a quiet street and in a playground and grassy area. There is a local primary school across the street. Local children would be in constant danger from tipper trucks and lorries coming and going right next to the school entrance and residents’ children at play. We will lose our GP surgery, chemist, supermarket, and bus route. These amenities were purposefully added by Hackney Council while the residential area was being built, and now the Council wants to take these amenities away and replace with can crushing machines and incinerators! Here is the Draft Plan map and details for Theydon Road area from the North London Waste Authority website. http://www.nlwp.net/downloads/consultation2015/1-7_Draft_Plan/Appendix_2_Hackney_site_and_areas.pdf Please add your support to stop this happening! Our residential area is a diverse multi-racial, multi-cultural mix by design. Many residents are vulnerable due to language barriers, because they are small children, or have health issues. They are not able to be vocal and contest this plan to process waste on their doorstep. Please give them your support and your voice!

People are being mocked and their struggles are being seen as entertainment when, in fact, it is day-to-day existence for many and not a fictitious variation of shows such as ‘Big Brother’. Sanctions, starvation and evictions are not ‘amusing’ or a joke, they are a reality for many and are horrifying in their brutality. People have died. The result of this misinformation is the alarming increase in hate crime against those who are claiming benefits. Spying on friends and neighbours is encouraged. covert filming and recording is rife. According to the Crown Prosecution Service in 2014 there was a 213 percent increase in the number of prosecutions for hate crime against disabled people. In 2011 the report, ‘Ready Willing and Able’ highlighted the fact that 38 percent of the general public perceived disabled people to be a burden on society. On 24 April 2015 the UN high commissioner for human rights, Zeid Ra’ad Al Hussein compared British print media’s attitude to migrants to propaganda in 1930s Nazi Germany. The impact of benefits cuts and of the associated campaign of demonisation of disabled people, the unemployed, migrants, asylum seekers and other vulnerable groups has been catastrophic. Crimes motivated by hate have wider and deeper roots, but austerity has made the problems worse.’ This is not healthy. This is frightening. I am asking the Chief Executive Officers and Director Generals of the main broadcasters of UK terrestrial television programming to do the right thing. I am asking them to have the courage to say ‘No More’. The public should be shown the true stories of the struggling majority, not the glamorisation of the extreme minority. Over many years the British press has been lauded for its fairness and unbiased reporting. Please do not allow this to change.

An ambulance carrying a pregnant Wirral woman was stopped at Wallasey tunnel over £1.70 toll of Friday 7th Aug 2015. An investigation has been launched after the ambulance carrying 31-year-old was made to pull over at the toll booths at the Wallasey tunnel.The mother to be from Birkenhead, was only 29 weeks pregnant but expected to give birth at any point. She was being transferred back to Arrowe Park Hospital from Ormskirk Hospital, where she had been taken due to a lack of space in the Wirral hospital’s special baby unit. But on Thursday night, space was made available for her and she was transferred back to Wirral on an emergency run, although the ambulance’s blue lights were not active. As they approached the tunnel, the woman at the kiosk asked the ambulance driver for a tag. The ambulance driver told her they hadn’t got one because they were from Lancashire and were just on a job. They were then told that they had to pay the toll. The ambulance driver explained that they were on an emergency job, and had a patient in the back who is being transferred’ but the toll operative said they still had to pay. The ambulance was then made to pull to one side while a manager for the tunnel operator was contacted before the issue could be resolved. This could have cost a life for the sake of £1.70p. Why do the emergency services have to pay at all.? Mersey travel estimated that they collected £185,000 last year from emergency services.

Iain Yell worked for HMRC in the Triad in Bootle, where he was part of the Benefits & Credits section. He was dismissed at the end of June through the department’s attendance management policy. Iain suffers from depression, and all of his absences were related to this condition. Hardly at record levels, they were in fact tapering off because of his own efforts to better manage his condition. In spite of this a single period of absence, provoked by the side effects of a reduction in medication which he had agreed with his doctor, was used as justification that his absences were ‘unsustainable’ and that he had to go. Iain’s rep had argued that a much greater portion of his absences, if not all of them, should disregarded by the poor attendance hearing since they were disability related. Management refused to even disregard a full quarter of Iain’s absences, despite every one of them being as a result of his disability and his Occupational Health referral stating that he was likely to be covered by the terms of the Equality Act 2010. In PCS’s view, the refusal to disregard all of Iain’s disability related sickness absence for managing attendance purposes amounts to discrimination arising from disability and the dismissal decision must be reversed.

7 decades have lapsed since the issue of self determination for the Kashmiri people was raised, a plebiscite was promised by the then Indian PM Nehru but wasn't honoured. We call on the British PM to raise this issue so that the Indian government scales down military presence in the disputed region, stops human rights abuses and investigates the cases of abuse pending

Scorries are as much a part of our community as other animals. The majority of problems and complaints about them are man made, and to ruthlessly kill them all would be a despicable act. Maxine Smith is campaigning to cull all scorries in Invergordon, and we do not want to see this despicable act here in Caithness.

It is ironic that our National Carrier gives out a paper which is so xenophobic and critical of most things that are not home grown. What must many of the overseas visitors think of some of the anti-european and other headlines that they read when flying into the UK. All British Airways is doing is keeping up the sales levels of a newspaper that could not be objective if it tried to be and one that then has the hypocrisy to question the integrity of the BBC.

Disabled customers should not have to justify their disability to bored customer care staff in a supermarket. Having to produce proof of a disability (as the blue badge will have been left on display in their vehicle) is undignified and demeaning. Having to divulge sensitive and personal information in a public area of a supermarket is unfair and unjust. Forcing customers to struggle back through a shop to the customer care desk in order to avoid being fined when they are wheelchair bound, struggle to walk or are in pain is a disgraceful way to treat a customer. Refusing to accept the validity of a blue badge becuase they are not on a supermarkets database is highly unfair and quite possibly illegal.

Governments should be accountable to the People they serve. If we Expose the Truth, and Thank Mr Galloway for his work it may make Gov Ministers more accountable.

Since the education reform act in 2002 schools have been the victims of profit driven organisations and individuals. Out-of-school provisions can generate huge revenue but what is that money used to do? Where does it go? It is being generated from the use of tax payers assets (schools), should society be getting the best value from it? Should it be used to develop better service? Or should companies and individuals use these profits for their own gains? There is a simple solution; Social Enterprise, put people before profits when it comes to providing services for children in or on publicly owned assets, our schools. Many of these still belong to the public and are paid for through the public purse, why should any organisation make profit from providing services on these sites? Yes, let's provide great services but let's get the best value and work to provide more, not declare more divided for Directors or share holders who have nothing to do with the operations of the company!
