What it would mean to the local community:  The loss of a tremendous amount of Greenbelt and farmland.  The loss of wildlife in the woodlands.  The loss of valuable open spaces.  Disruption of pathways.  Loss of natural break from the other nearby communities, creating an ugly urban sprawl.  An over capacity for local schools and doctors.  Heavy traffic on local roads which are not suitable for the amount of housing proposed. They are already heavily used and always in a poor state of repair.  More excessive housing would increase the carbon footprint.  The village would lose its heritage. It was in the Domesday Book of 1086.  According to National surveys Knowsley is already the 10th Unhealthiest place to live in the country! Knowsley Village is currently an attractive village at the heart of Knowsley authority.  Keep Knowsley Cleaner, Safer and Greener. We urge the council not to consider building on the Greenbelt or farmland, but to utilise many of the other concrete areas within Knowsley. These would more than meet the current housing demand.

Knowsley Council are planning to sell off thousands of acres of beautiful greenbelt land between Whiston, Cronton and Huyton, so that Redrow Homes can build thousands of houses. We suggest that Knowsley Council would be far better to use brownfield sites first, rather than sell off our valuable land for developers to make a fat profit from. The infrastructure around the area cannot cope with such a huge increase in houses. There are no jobs to support the increase in people, and public transport/road links are already full to bursting point. This development will also cause problems for people trying to register with GPs, schools, local amenities, local hospital services, as well as an increase in demand for services from the council itself. We cannot afford to lose one of our last remaining green spaces and all of the wildlife living in it. This will be crippling for the local area, as well as the areas around it such as Prescot, Cronton and parts of St Helens. Once it's gone, it's gone.

For years I've listened to locals and visitors complaining that we are banned from enjoying a little bit of beach in the hot summer! So I decided to try and do something about it instead of complaining! Castle beach has been chosen after extensive questioning of local people in the area, as its completely tidal, and because it's a central beach it would be easy to monitor for any issues that come up. It also has easy access for all and has a great cafe for the important tea & coffee breaks! We believe it will be an extra asset to Falmouth and encourage more dog friendly visitors to the area too! We believe it will not only benefit the local, tax paying community but will also enhance the facilities for the growing number of visitors with dogs in the summer.

IPP prisoners remain in jail indefinitely in England and Wales under the sentence of imprisonment (IPP), which was abolished in 2012 for future offenses. Many have long exceeded the punitive tariff imposed for the offenses they committed, in some cases as little as a few months. However, at present IPP prisoners must seek release on parole on the same terms as life sentence prisoners, although the Justice Secretary has a statutory power to establish a new release test. In several cases the European Court of Human Rights has found continued IPP detention to be arbitrary and in breach of Convention rights. Lord Lloyd of Berwick, former Lord of Appeal in Ordinary, said: "There are thousands IPP people in prison who arguably shouldn’t be there and have no release date. A senior high court judge describes them as ‘the disappeared'...“This is a crime against humanity. We are talking about people here who have paid for their crime who have finished their sentence who want to return home to their families build their life’s back up” IPP sentance is effecting the prisoners Mental Health It should also be noted that apart from the IPP prisoners themselves, the real losers are their family and friends who are often left struggling to understand the realities of an IPP sentence often at a loss as to what to do about the nightmare situation in which they find themselves.

Local residents and neighbourhood businesses DO NOT WANT the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham Planning and Development Control Committee to approve the Reserved Matters Application Ref 2014/03232/DET due soon, before a full independent public health impact assessment is carried out. If any demolition and reconstruction of this HUGE 77-acre West London district is to go ahead, the site and its neighbouring areas will suffer ground contamination, noise pollution (heavy demolition traffic + the accumulative impact of noise), vibration and risks to health during asbestos removal. Furthermore, air pollution in this area, already regularly breaching European air quality standards, make air quality monitoring stations for Hammersmith and Fulham residents essential.

The People's History Museum in Manchester is the only museum in England dedicated to celebrating the history of working people. It tells the story of working people's contribution to this country in both peacetime and war. It charts their struggles from the deportation of the Tolpuddle Martyrs, through Lancashire mill workers during the American Civil War as well as working people's solidarity with anti-apartheid campaigners in South Africa. And now, during the centenary of the First World War, the museum's current exhibition tells the story of the working people of Britain throughout the war. The museum's deputy editor Cath Birchall has said: “They [the government] don’t see the importance of a national museum that shows the effects of the war on ordinary people.” A war where approximately 750,000 people died in combat and more than a million were injured fighting abroad, and which also resulted in huge numbers of domestic casualties with as many as 100,000 dying of malnutrition and disease. Please stop the cuts and save this national treasure. After all, in the words of Len McClusky, "History is not just about those who write it, but about those who live it. Working people and the labour movement have been at the forefront of all social and political changes this country has undergone over the past three centuries. We must defend the People’s Museum ... and safeguard the one museum dedicated to telling the story of us all".

We know there are thousands of dementia [and other disease sufferers] in need of nursing, not just personal care. If they manage to find out about the processes and arm themselves with a copy of the DST they are in with half a chance but it is only half a chance. Result = pay through the nose for care which the patient has already paid into the NHS and tax system for them to provide

I have a good deal of contact with older people, who often have increasing difficulty retaining information because of failing memory. I have also had contact with people experiencing significant difficulties because of learning disabilities or brain diseases, eg. dementia. These conditions often also affect a person's mobility and it is not so easy for them to simply visit the bank or Building Society and re-assert their identity, with the support of utility bills, passports, etc. Both of my parents are tragically affected by Alzheimers Disease. My father remains, for now, independently managing his own affairs (with considerable time and support from others). I have seen at first-hand the terrible frustration he experiences when trying to transact, or obtain information over the 'phone when agents are unable to help because he can't tell them the security information; he is unable even to recall his address of the past 2 years. I see that it may be difficult to find a suitable alternative to memory-reliant methods to assure security but I believe the problem to be an urgent and common one. The institutions holding our money must provide the means for us all to access their services, no matter our age, memory or health status.

Until just a few years ago we, as a nation, were beholden to the USA under the terms and conditions of the Lend-Lease agreement during World War 2. We have paid our debt to the USA in full, both in cash - with massive interest - and in human lives. We no longer have to join in their wars and we should be a peaceful island nation which just gets on with our global neighbours and trades peacefully with them.....rather than being a belligerent nation which spends a disproportionate amount of its GDP on its military and getting involved in warfare that we can't afford. Wouldn't our nation be so much better if we used this money to make life in the UK better and healthier for the people who live here? Warfare is paid for from the taxes we pay - we choose that our tax is spent on positive outcomes for the people of the UK, instead of bombing distant countries just because they have an issue with the USA.
