• Asda Should Apologise to Scotland!
    Asda released a statement less than a week before the referendum on Scottish independence stating prices will rise in an independent Scotland. This clearly will have affected how people voted and I would suspect more so among pensioners many of whom are vulnerable. It is important that corporate businesses do not use their position to influence the public by making statements intended to affect the outcome of a democratic vote. Andy Clarke should apologise for releasing a statement intended to affect the outcome of the referendum on Scottish independence and give assurance that Asda will never publicise another statement which is likely to affect the outcome of the democratic process. Andy Clarke will be presented with the choice, admit that you had no justification in what you said on behalf of Asda or watch the power of social media take you down.

  • keep our lollipop man
    Safety for our children. Alan has become well known and liked by both children and adults alike, he always has a friendly smile and a wave to give weather you are walking or driving to school. He provides a much needed service at a crucial crossing point, with a much needed smile come morning and night. It is my personal experience that I am unable to cross my 2 young children across the road as there is no dropped curb, I have to use a mobility scooter to take my children to school and have to go onto the road to be able to get on and off the path, Alan safely crosses my children for me and the proceeds to aid in my crossing too.

  • HPV Vaccine for every boy in the country
    Girls are already being immunised against HPV, to protect them against cancer of the cervix. Young men are being diagnosed with life damaging papillomatosis, cancer of the tonsils, anal cancer, and also acting as vectors for HPV spread in women. Epidemiologists, the BMA, Ear,Nose and Throat surgeons, Colorectal surgeons, all agree that protecting all our young people , not just girls is an essential, and fair, public health measure.

  • KEEP HOLLINS VIEW OPEN
    Hollins View provides residential respite and short-term breaks. Intermediate Care beds for people leaving hospital and day care services to over 400 people a year. Cheshire East plans to close Hollins View and transfer care to the Private Sector. There is already a shortage of care beds in Macclesfield and the closure of Hollins View could result in people having to travel out of the area, or for some people, no help at all. Carers save Cheshire East thousands of pounds a year caring for their loved ones 24 hours a day seven days a week and sometimes need a break to enable them to carry on caring. If Hollins View closes they could be left unsupported. This service is vital to Carers and to their loved ones. SEND A MESSAGE TO THE LEADERS AT CHESHIRE EAST COUNCIL AND DAVID RUTLEY MP THAT HOLLINS VIEW IS A VITAL AND NECESSARY SERVICE AND MUST NOT CLOSED.

  • Petition against 16+ SEN transport cuts in Monmouthshire
    Monmouthshire County Council have removed funding that helped pay for transport to college for 16 years + children with SEN. This means that the parents/guardians of these children are left with difficult choices. Pay themselves or use public transport. Some of these children have ADHD, Autism and Aspergers and for them, using public transport is impossible. One of the most vulnerable groups in our communities is suffering due to these cuts.

  • Save Crowborough Birthing Centre
    The Crowborough Birthing Centre was the first midwife led birthing centre in the country. It is much valued by all the mothers in the area. Unfortunately because of the problems in the Eastbourne NHS Trust the Crowborough unit keeps being closed temporarily and was under threat of total closure. Not only does the unit provide something approaching a normal home birth it is also very cost effective. Because of the threats of closure there has been moves to transfer the unit to the Pembury hospital under the Maidstone NHS Trust where the future of the unit would be more secure.

  • Review of tax credits system
    People are not claiming benefits that they are entitled to for fear of finding themselves in debt, or because it can take so long to get through on the telephone. Also because once it has been deemed that tax credits have been overpaid people are powerless to appeal against the decision

  • Votes at 16 now
    During the recent referendum in Scotland all 16 and 17 year olds were given the vote . They were very enthusiastic taking part in the campaign .As well as voting in large numbers. We have a general election next year.It is wrong to tell people that you were old enough to help decide the future of Scotland but you are to young to decide who should represent you at Westminster.I believe that the vote should be extended to ALL 16 year olds.
