Chester city is under attack from untrammelled developments to provide for accommodation for students of Chester University. There is no restrictions, no planning, to ensure an area can accommodate the student numbers and no regard paid to the wishes of residents who live with the problems of being swamped by the numbers of students living within their area, Within the City's residential areas, family housing has been converted into housing of multi occupation for student accommodation . In the Garden Lane area a tipping point has been reached where the student numbers exceed those of residents . Residents have decided to leave the areas because of the problems posed by high student numbers. With the displacement of established residents by students the area has had an increase in low level anti social behaviour including noise pounding out from house, street or gardens at all hours , vandalism of vehicles , private property, and vomiting and urinating on the streets. The arrival of undergraduates has ripped the heart of the Garden Lane area they aren't interested in tending gardens ,or cutting hedges, moreover they keep odd hours and throw late night parties Some streets in the area in which they live now resemble slums, refuse being left in garden and littering the streets, grass uncut and fences broken. An old pensioner in the area said it was like living in a war zone . Properties in the areas have suffered with physical changes,are unkempt and suffer from squalor and dereliction. The streets suffer from permanent 'street blight'. The use of licencing condition and restricting orders on HMO's are necessary to control the area and ensure that existing residence are protected from further degradation in the quality of their lives . What is necessary is however is policies , strategies and action that address the future demand for student accommodation which do not damage the historic heritage of the City Centre and enable residential areas to provide family accommodation not blighted by studentification

The attitude of the public towards the police in London has taken quite a battering over the last few years and the level of trust is pretty low, along with that of Politicians. Considering the discontent against policies the government has implemented, the ever increasing appearance that London is becoming exclusive to the elite and Very Wealthy, to authorise use of water cannon will further dissolve trust and solidify the opinion that the government is seeking to protect its interests and that of wealthy backers. There would be no trust that these would only be used in major incidents and a belief these would be deployed in peaceful protests to deny people their voice. Previous uses around the world have shown this to be the case. If this authority is granted, it will set a dangerous precedent that other police forces will be able to deploy this too. Politicians and police need to build trust within their community, not further increase the divide that is currently very apparent.

If you were accused of something terrible and degrading that you had not done, and your details together with these allegations appeared on the front page of your local newspaper, for example, then can you imagine the damage caused to you alone? You as a son or daughter, an employer or employee, parent, a sister or brother, a friend, minister, you as a celebrity,... let alone others too like your children, friends and family and associates. Can you see how that would quite easily stain your life having a profound and long lasting impact that could not be erased!? Yes, this regularly happens to innocent people like you and me before any opportunity to a fair hearing or trial and by mistake. The permanent damage based on alleged guilt is unfair and unjustified! It’s done just so that newspapers can have something to print, 'a juicy story', scare tactics or for greed. Sign this petition to reduce the media's powers to invade your privacy, devastate and ruin lives by being able to print allegations with personal details. I had not given it too much consideration until it happened to me and my family. Anonymity is the only fair way for the innocent.

Rik Mayall was such an iconic man, and comedy has a lot to thank because of him! I hope we get to see this as he would have wanted us to smiling and definitely laughing at maybe some of his greatest work! He played Peeve's in the first Harry Potter movie and below is what his opinion was on the movie and his scene.... “I tell you, the best f**king film I’ve ever been in, not for the film, because the film, with respect… no with no respect at all… the film was s**t, I’ll tell you why. “A long while ago, all the kids at my kids’ school were saying “Hello Rik, have you read Harry Potter? It’s fantastic.” I’d go “what?” “My agent said, “Hey Rik, you want to be in Harry Potter?” “I said, “What, is it a book?” “He said, “It’s a film.” “I said, “Ah, it’s my favourite book, course I want to be in it.” “I’d never read a word. He said: “Alright, you’re in it.” “I thought, “f**king cool. What’s the money?” “So I did it, I went and I f**king did it. I played the part of Peeves in ‘Harry Potter’. I got sent off the set because every time I tried to do a bit of acting, all the lads who were playing the school kids kept getting the giggles, they kept corpsing, so they threw me off. “Well, they asked me to do it with my back to them and they still laughed. So they asked me to do it around the other side of the cathedral and shout my lines, but they still laughed so they said they’d do my lines with someone else. “So then I did a little bit of filming, then I went home and I got the money. That’s significant. “Then a month later, they said: “Er, Rik, we’re sorry about this, but you’re not in the film. We’ve cut you out of the film.” “It was three weeks later, so I was in the film for around three weeks and then they cut me out. “But I still got the money. So that is the most exciting film I’ve ever been in, because I got the oodle and I wasn’t in it. Fantastic. “I hadn’t told my kids I wasn’t in it yet, and they came back and they said: “Bloody good make up. You didn’t look like yourself at all dad.” “They thought I was playing Hagrid, Robbie Coltrane’s part.” You will be well missed and one of my heroes! You never failed to make me laugh! You are an inspiration and I hope you can still make generations laugh for years to come!

Music is free expression, let it be.

The desecration has already started, trimmers have been out, we have had a temporary reprieve after i had a go at the gardeners and they left. Then Plymouth police wildlife crime adviser got an undertaking from one of the committee to not do anything for two weeks! We have to stop it and stop it now!

To create a lasting memorial in the British collective memory to the genius of Rik Mayall, and recognise that he, and his characters, particularly Lord Flashheart, have become lodged in the national subconscious, but have also consciously shaped a generation. In return for the day off, the public will be expected to behave in an extremely silly way, with as many references to Lord Flash during the day as possible, Including repeated Woofs.

There is no need to use a phone when driving and no call is more important than another persons life. Our roads are more dangerous because of people ignoring the law and they can do this because the risk of getting caught is low and the penalty is insignificant.

The Sun have a disgraceful record of journalism, top of the list Hillsborough. I do not wish to receive this junk to put straight in the bin.

Everyone wants to walk beside the river on the THAMES PATH National Trail but at Maidenhead there is a 30 metre missing-link which needs to be completed in accordance with the Council's Rights of Way Improvement Plan of 2005. A recent decision to complete this riverside link has been overturned in favour of a roadside footpath along the A 4094 which will require a PRIVATE CAR PARK built in BRIDGE GARDENS conservation area. This car park will be for office staff and owners of the adjacent property 'Bridge View' in Ray Mead Road, where some do not have parking space and are unlawfully using the existing footway. A campaign has been ongoing for many years to establish a riverside path over a former boatyard slipway. But now the Council plan to confine walkers to a narrow pavement beside a busy road instead and destroy an area of public gardens. BRIDGE GARDENS was secured through a Compulsory Purchase Order by the Council in 1946 when it was described as an attraction quite unique 'for the benefit of all the residents of Maidenhead'.
