Unbelievable. Keir Starmer has handed Donald Trump a letter from King Charles, inviting him for a second state visit to the UK. It’s totally unprecedented, and should not go ahead.  This is the same Donald Trump that in recent weeks has buddied up with Putin, cranked up tariffs on trade,  slashed aid across the world and berated Ukrainian President Zelensky in the White House. Meanwhile his best buddy Elon Musk has been sticking his oar into UK politics and  spreading lies on social media.  No date for the visit is set yet - so if we’re going to have any chance of stopping this happening, we need to act right now. A huge petition signed by hundreds of thousands of us will show Trump, The King and the PM how unwelcome the US president truly is. It’s the first step in stopping this terrible idea. If you think Donald Trump is unfit to be celebrated with another state visit, will you sign the petition right now and share with as many people as you can? 

It’s important that trusted, well know British, family brands are non-political and take special care when advertising on far right, controversial TV outlets

Our political system is not working because it doesn't put people first. Public trust is at an all time low and discriminatory abuse of people in politics has got worse. These problems can only be fixed if we work together. We need to show the Government that the British public wish politics to change and make it better for everyone. Please sign our open letter to MPs   Dear Members of Parliament, Our political system needs repair, and we, the British people, are paying the price. • 76% of people worry about government corruption. • Only 6% believe voters influence the government. • A record 45% say they "almost never" trust politicians to prioritise the nation over party interests. • 83% of BME MPs report that racist abuse affects their work. This can’t continue! We must Clean Up Politics before it’s too late. That’s why we the British people are calling on EVERY MP to sign a pledge to: ✅ Stop lying in politics - distrust of politicians makes people less likely to vote or engage in politics. ✅ Demand respectful debate and say no to abuse - threats and discrimination of politicians puts people at risk and undermines democracy. ✅ Reform the Lords -  the House of Lords is unrepresentative with 700+ Peers, 71% men and an average age of 71. Unaccountable with no democratic oversight.  It’s time to turn over a new leaf and that starts with each and every MP saying they’ll back the pledge to Clean Up Politics today.  Signed,  Members of the public

Netflix subscription packages are rising by as much as 20% despite Netflix making huge profits in the UK. Netflix paid just £14.2 million in taxes in the UK despite revenue of £1.7 billion.  It’s clear that Netflix is prioritising profits over its customers, and they need to know that UK consumers have the power to push back. When one streaming giant raises prices, the rest follow. It’s unacceptable. Add your name to the petition, and then share with your family and friends to spread the word! 

By signing this petition, you are single-handedly helping to fight back against litter, and keeping Newhaven as the beautiful place it is.

Myasthenia gravis is a chronic and incurable autoimmune disease. It can be a severe and life-threatening condition that significantly impacts a patient's quality of life. Myasthenia gravis causes muscle weakness that affects mobility and day-to-day function of many patients, and is currently treated by 'blanket' approaches such as steroids and immunosuppression, which come with their own side effect burden.   It appears UK myasthenic patients are being left behind with treatment for this chronic, disabling, and, in some cases, life limiting disease.  Patients in many other countries of the world have access to one or more of these newer therapies. These countries include USA, many countries in Europe (France, Germany, Spain, Greece, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Belgium, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Poland, Romania, Slovenia), the Americas (Argentina Brazil, Canada, Mexico), China, Egypt, Israel, Japan, Oman, Saudi Arabia, South Korea, Taiwan, Turkey, and United Arab Emirates. The UK appears to stand out as a country in which patients with myasthenia have no access to treatments that can revolutionise their lives.  Patients in the UK are still being treated with the older broad-acting treatments which often involve the long-term use of steroids, with their often lifechanging side effects, or other expensive treatments such as IVIg or plasma exchange. The quality of life for many myasthenic patients is poor, their ability to earn a living can be compromised and they live in fear of a myasthenic crisis which will involve a hospital stay and can be life threatening. 

Drax is a biomass power plant in North Yorkshire. It’s the UK’s largest emitter of carbon dioxide, as well as the world’s number 1 tree burner, and relies on millions of pounds of UK taxpayers’ money in subsidies each year. A recent report from the independent climate change think tank E3G confirmed that DRAX is not needed to achieve the Government’s clean power 2030 mission. • Drax’s operations will increase carbon dioxide levels in the environment for decades (https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/aaa512 and https://www.woodwellclimate.org/letter-regarding-use-of-forests-for-bioenergy/). • It is highly polluting. Drax’s facilities have broken environmental laws over 11,000 times in the US, with toxic emissions linked to respiratory diseases and cancers affecting poor communities of colour the most (https://www.landclimate.org/drax-usa-11000/ and https://www.southernenvironment.org/press-release/groundbreaking-report-reveals-harmful-impacts-of-biomass-wood-pellet-plants/).   • It is ecologically damaging, Drax burns rare forest wood, destroying unique habitats. Last year Ofgem fined Drax £25 million, for misreporting data on wood pellet sourcing (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-68381160 and https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/publications/ofgem-decision-investigation-drax-power-limited). 

Imagine your elderly neighbor, who uses a cane, getting slapped with a £100 fine just for parking for 5 minutes after hours to grab a pint of milk—while disabled residents face the same unfair treatment, struggling to navigate their daily lives. Although legal—it’s heartless, and it’s driving a wedge between the tuition centre and our community, including families who’d normally send their kids there. Shockingly, Google reviews are already flooded with similar complaints, showing how much goodwill they’re losing. We need to stop these predatory practices because they’re not only alienating locals but also setting a dangerous precedent for private parking firms to exploit vulnerable people—join me to demand change and protect our community’s spirit!

In view of Mr Trump's appalling record in Office to date: his abandonment of the rights of minorities, his threats to take over foreign lands, his abuse of friendly Heads of State, his promise to stop protection of the environment and threats to abandon countries in need and his ending of USAID to the world's neediest we believe that such a Visit would encourage him in further uncivilised and autocratic behaviour.  This Visit would bring shame on our country, is likely to embarass His Majesty and send out all the wrong signals about who the British are.

They are not opening the Triangle Wood bar this year, it is not due to a licence. I have been informed this is not a issue, it is down to the solicitors dealing with the will. This us not just a bar it is a community hub, for people to catch up, meet new friends and have somewhere they can go and not feel alone. Please sign this petition and help us to get the bar reopened.

The situation at Leamington station and with Chiltern railways is appalling for customers. Most days there are no seats, particularly on London trains. Hundreds of people wait on the platform and then have to struggle to get a seat which is actually impossible since there are none. People are angry and frustrated since we have paid the same fare as the lucky ones. There are people with health issues who can't stand for periods of more than an hour. Some people need to be near a toilet but often the toilets are also out of order and the ones on the station platform are also not available currently. It's an absolute embarrassment that this is a key part of the transport infrastructure of this region and the service is dreadful. Add carriages and fix the toilets!!!! Only with people actually pressuring local government and the train company itself can anything be done. We will not just tut and shake our heads in dismay. Let's sign and show that we customers have rights.

This is crucial because MAGA propaganda is typically far-right rhetoric, aimed to sow confusion, radicalize, create scapegoats, and destabilize societies.  MAGA figures actively seek to influence our electorate and politicians in the UK and other countries. Diligent, persistent fact-checking of far-right statements is essential to mitigate harm.  Mandating this through Ofcom is the most effective approach.
