• Say NO to Battery Storage Development!
    We have come together as a community to try and stop this development. The Potential Issues This Will Cause: RISK OF EXPLOSION An explosion could cause a massive toxic cloud which is fatal to all life in surrounding area! ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES The development will eradicate protected green lands, produce noise pollution and destroy local wildlife! NO BENEFITS TO THE COMMUNITY There will be no new jobs to support the build and no cheaper tariffs to the community. Also, house prices have the potential to drop! POTENTIAL EXPANSION Once the batteries are setup, surrounding areas will be potentially developed, furthering the risks!

  • Save Benjamin Court!
    Cromer and North Norfolk has lost a highly valued service for older and vulnerable people who leave hospital, assessing their needs prior to moving back to their own homes or other settings. Delays in discharging patients from hospital are causing huge backlogs in the NHS, added to which are concerns about patients being discharged in poor health and returned to hospital within 7 days.

  • DFS Big Summer Sale On Workers Pay
    Many of these workers have given years if not decades of loyalty to the company. By depriving individuals of their full-time hours, DFS is jeopardising their ability to pay their bills and provide for their families. The cuts only affect factory workers. Office staff and management still have their full-time hours and are not being affected. By treating workers like this they are forcing hard workers and skilled workers out of the business, thus lowering the standards of production. These cuts are having a negative effect on the mental health of people who are struggling to make ends meet. We urge CEO Tim Stacey to talk with the workers' union, GMB to pay the workers at least minimum wage for the time they are not being permitted to work.

  • Remove antibiotic dosed chicken from your shelves!
    Three of the biggest supermarkets in the UK are selling chickens that are dosed with antibiotics, a practice linked with the rise of superbugs. This is despite experts saying the misuse of antibiotics is one of the top ten global health threats facing humanity. 15 products across Asda, Iceland and Lidl come from SuperDrob, a supplier that's been found to misuse antibiotics. In fact in 2020, SuperDrob was linked to an outbreak of antibiotic-resistant Salmonella in Europe that killed five people. Supermarkets need to get these products off shelves and protect the health of their customers. These supermarkets are facing backlash in the press, but we need public pressure to get them to stop stocking the products. If thousands of us sign this petition it will convince them to cut ties with SuperDrob and stop selling a handful of items rather than risk any more reputational damage.

  • Deprived Pensioners
    My grandfather is one of over 200,000 people who contributed throughout their working life into a scheme promising pension security in his retirement. They now receive compensation from the Pension Protection Fund because their scheme was taken over by the PPF after the collapse of the company they had worked for. Now they are being deprived of an anticipated benefit because of the law governing PPF operations. This generation of old people, often cited as overprivileged, lived and paid their dues through long periods of double digit interest rates between 1975 and 1992 and are now suffering once again as interest rates rise and their compensation does not. A small group of us has formed an association to fight for change. This petition is a part of this fight . We urge you, as the responsible Minister, to become fully involved and right this wrong. For a full understanding of our case, go to the DPA website. https://www.deprivedpensioners.org/ Calling all PPF/FAS members If you are a member of either the Pension Protection Fund or the Financial Assistance Scheme run by the Fund and are aged over 50. you are very likely to be suffering from a lack of indexation under the pre-1997 rule. As well as supporting our petition it is in your interest to go to the website of the Deprived Pensioners Association and find out about our CrowdJustice campaign to right this injustice. https://www.deprivedpensioners.org/

  • Clear our pavements of dumped electric bikes
    London's pavements are now awash with dumped electric bicycles. They make pavements annoying for pedestrians, they make them impossible to navigate for anyone in a wheelchair or with a pram. Walk down any major London street and you'll now find yourself running a gauntlet of e-bike obstacles (Lime, Human Forest, etc etc etc), it's getting out of hand. The electric bike companies' business models seem to rely on this chaos they create "disrupting the market". So we're signing this petition to push our Mayor to do something about it. If money is the only motivator for these companies then start fining them each time a bike is dumped in an inappropriate place. Perhaps there could even be a cash bounty for people if they spot a dumped bike blocking a pavement?

  • End Discrimination in Cricket
    Over 4000 people provided evidence of racism, sexism, and class-based discrimination in cricket to an independent consultation. The report on these issues found that racism and inequality are entrenched in cricket. Everyone should be able to play the sport they love without racism, sexism or class-based barriers. That's why the independent report has made recommendations to make the sport accessible to everyone - but so far, the ECB has only implemented one recommendation: saying sorry. Enough is enough. The ECB needs to act now and end discrimination.

  • Label media with sexual abuse warnings
    I am a firm believer in freedom of speech, expression and accessibility for all. However, freedom from responsibility shouldn't exist. Therefore a content warning on media is the responsibility of both the creators and regulators of said content. The reason others should involve themselves in this topic is because according to the NCPCC (2021), 1 in 20 children have experienced some form of sexual abuse. It's estimated that 3.1 million adults, 18-74, were sexually abused as children, before the age of 16 (ONS, 2020). It's likely you might know someone who survived sexual abuse as a child. It's likely you don't even know that you know someone who has survived abuse. Not everyone who was abused can be captured in statistics. I say all of this to say anyone with a traumatic past, of whom there are many, could be harmed by content that isn't correctly and specifically labeled. We need labels so we're in an informed position to decide whether we want to consume any given piece of media. We need this information so we can decide if consuming the media will result in us having a panic attack, a flashback, or an intrusive return of memories.

  • Reinstate Police Station for Morpeth
    Too much petty crime is taking place, as well as more serious crime as police resources are tied up elsewhere, and the criminals know it. Morpeth needs it's own dedicated policing unit that is paid for by the residents of this great town through our Council Tax. Residents are suffering at the hands of petty criminals and losing more than just their valuables. Peace of mind too.
