The Post Office scandal is one the greatest ever miscarriages of justice. Yet reports suggest Fujitsu - whose software is behind the Post Office scandal - have just been handed a new Government contract. They promised they wouldn’t bid for contracts until the Post Office Inquiry was finished - but according to reports of leaked documents, they’ve been training staff on how to bid despite the ban. We have to act quickly to stop those responsible from being given any more of our money while the victims are still waiting for compensation. It was our people power that got Paula Vennells to hand back her CBE - now it’s time to hold those to blame accountable again.

Sexual assault allegations against Prince Andrew led to him being pushed out of royal duties in 2019 and prevented from using his royal titles in 2022. But at a vulnerable time for the Royal Family, Prince Andrew has begun stepping in to undertake royal duties. This is despite the fact that the allegations against him remain active; Prince Andrew may have settled the sexual assault civil lawsuit against him out of court, but US court documents still allege connections between him and the case against the convicted child sex offender, Jeffrey Epstein. In view of this, it is vital that Prince Andrew is not permitted to undertake royal duties or use his royal titles.

Innocent civilians in Gaza are dying every day. The humanitarian situation is catastrophic. For months, aid has been blocked leading to a hunger crisis that is claiming lives, especially those of children. Despite this, the UK continues to sell arms to the Israeli Government. Foreign Secretary David Lammy, has suspended around 30 arms export licences to Israel. However, this is not a full ban, and many more licenses remain active. Pressure is mounting on Prime Minister Keir Starmer and the Government to take a stronger stance and do more. A huge petition signed by all of us could be all that is needed to suspend all arms sales to the Israeli Government until they let aid into Gaza and respect international law.

According to the Family Resources Survey (2021 to 2022), 16 million people in the UK have a disability. 11%, or 1.76 million of these are children. SEN children deserve the same opportunities as all other children but face many barriers to achieving these. Why does my child not have the same Opportunities to play as his sister does?

Thousands of bank branches and ATMs have disappeared from high streets across the UK in recent years. For many, losing their local bank isn’t just an inconvenience. Elderly people, rural communities and people without access to the internet are being cut off from vital banking services - and easy access to their own money. Barclays should reconsider the decision to close the Allerton Road branch to help those in the local community who don’t have access to online services

Everyone is affected by this and it seems Ofgem is currently happy to just keep raising the charges. If we complain about it hopefully Ofgem will reconsider the decision to keep increasing our bills in this way.

This is equally if not worse than the post office scandal The government is aware Leaseholders are trapped in homes they cannot sell, there have been suicides, bankruptcies, severe mental health issues, all because freeholders are literally fleecing LH We cannot sell, mortgage and the properties are not maintained? Wales, and England are the only countries in the world with this feudal system, which the conservatives will NOT change as most are freeholders themselves

In the middle of a cost of living crisis where even families who are working are struggling to make ends meet and relying on food banks or starving why are we treating prisoners better than our children? In prison three meals a day are provided at the tax payers expense but we don’t give our children a free school Meal after year 2. Teachers can see the effect a decent meal has on children’s academic performance but the government would rather them stave. For some a hot meal provided at school might be all they have that day but yet our government deny them this basic human right unless parents pay. Why do prisoners deserve better than the next generation? In a time where millions are choosing between heat and eat and many are pushed into poverty why are we choosing not to provide all pupils in the uk with a hot school meal. The current maximum income permitted to be eligible for a free school meal is so low it’s a joke and it doesn’t alter even if you have more than one child it’s time to rethink the system. Parents are struggling with rising bills and are having to make choices between heat and eat. Pupils are going without hot meals or even a meal so let’s take one worry away and have universal free school meals for all from reception to year 11. Prisoners get three meals a day but the our children are only provided with a free meal until they finish year 2, how is this right that we treat criminals better than our future?

Why is this important? According to www.Gov.uk Cautions are given to anyone aged 10 or over for minor crimes - for example writing graffiti on a bus shelter. A caution is not a criminal conviction, but it could be used as evidence of bad character if you go to court for another crime. The number of Nominal records held on the PNC for individuals with a criminal element against their names, as of the latest quarterly report (October 2022) is 12,282,131.  With over 12 million people in the UK who held a criminal record in 2022. Many have accepted a police caution in the past after being told by the police that it isn't the same as a criminal conviction and it won't appear on their criminal record, only to find many years later that it appears on their Acro and advanced criminal record checks affecting their ability to work, travel and immigrate. UK citizen should not be punished for the rest of their lives for minor offences and should be able to move on with their lives with a second chance. None of us should be judged by the actions of our weakest moments, but rather by the strength we show when and if we're given a second chance. 
 Below is a brief guide to how other nations treat criminal convictions. • Canada permanently deletes records of juvenile convictions once an individual turns 18 or after 5 years of turning 18. Murder, manslaughter, and aggravated sexual assault are never deleted. Canada also has a pardon system that allows adults to appeal for their records to be suspended and not disclosed if an individual can show good character and rehabilitation since the offense. Also in the USA individuals can apply to have their records expunged; this is for citizens under 18 and varies from state to state. • Scotland does not disclose convictions if 15 years have passed or if an individual were 18 or over 18 at the date of conviction, 7 and half years if an individual were under 18 at the date of conviction • Australia expunges juvenile convictions after 3 years of no repeat offending and has a pardon policy for adult convictions • In Spain, conviction records are not erased completely but are ‘canceled’ in a process known as ‘canceling a conviction record’. Once conviction records are canceled, the individual will possess a clean criminal record. Therefore, the record of their convictions will be sealed in the Central Criminal Records Registry and is likely made unavailable to the police. To cancel a conviction record a period of time after having served the sentence must have elapsed (6 months, 2 years, 3 years, or 5 years depending on the sentence); no further crime has been committed in the interim, and civil compensation has been paid or the person has been declared without money. • Ireland. If 3 years have lapsed juveniles' records are wiped clean. • In France for adults once the rehabilitation period has passed (depending on the severity of the conviction either three years for misdemeanors or five years for felony crimes, after the sentence was completed) the records of the convictions will remain on the system but will not show on the request of a record. In the case of minors and children, these are removed once the individual concerned has reached 18 years and/or three years from the date the crime was committed. • In Germany most adult convictions are deleted after 5, 10, 15, or 20 years, respectively. Suggestion Police services keep the current rule of keeping conviction details on record until the offender turns 100, only for their record. However, the minor crime record will not show on any background check such as DBS, Advanced DNS, and Acro police report after 6 - 10 years. Or Police services should drop the current rule of keeping conviction details on record until the offender turns 100. Those found guilty of shoplifting, drug possession, or other minor crimes would be removed from the Police National Computer (PNC) database after 6 - 10 years. Or Update the current Acro step-down module on minor crimes and remove "No live trace"/ "No further action" on the Acro police report as it still passively suggests a criminal history, preventing people from moving on with their lives.
