• Regulate the sale of petrol and diesel
    Lack of regulation is leading to a post code lottery with regards to forecourts and service stations, with oulets from the same supplier within a few miles of each other charging different prices. When wholesale fuel prices fall these savings are not always passed on to the consumer, whereas increases invariably lead to immediate price hikes. Consumers are being ripped off.

  • Remove All Flammable Cladding
    Since the Grenfell fire in June 2017 which claimed 72 lives, thousands of other housing blocks nationwide have been identified as having flammable cladding systems which contributed to the Grenfell tragedy. Residents in these housing blocks are facing ridiculously high costs for insurance, waking watches and remedial works to remove the cladding, despite them not being at fault. The Government pledged £5 billion to remove all ACM Grenfell style cladding on buildings over 18 meters, however this is not enough money and 4 years on over 300 buildings still have ACM cladding systems. This figure does not include other flammable cladding systems and buildings under 18 meters. Residents live in constant fear of fires in their buildings. Sarah, a first-time buyer, bought her flat in Leeds at 28. At 29 she went bankrupt due to the crisis. Sarah will not be the only one to go bankrupt - thousands, if not millions, more will go bankrupt too. The Government must protect all residents from the cost of fixing unsafe buildings and they need to make more funding available so that all buildings can be made safe in the next 12 months.

  • Stop 3G pitch development on Papplewick Pavilion
    The planning has been submitted to turn the area into a commercial 3G football pitch and academy. Meaning large floodlit artificial pitches being used for commercial gain. This deprives the area of a much loved green space and negatively impacts quality of life for residents on the estate In the middle of a housing estate this would cause noise, light and traffic pollution

  • Apronectomy on NHS
    My husband had a Gastric Bypass a few years ago ,but when he was due to have the excess skin removed after loosing weight he was unable to have it done on the NHS as Apronectomy is now classed as cosmetic & became a cut back. He has COPD that is made worse with carrying the weight of the excess skin , has painful neck & shoulders ,walks with a crutch because he feels he could fall , also gets leg ulcers & could get them under the skin , he has a heart problem ,we can't have intimacy in our marriage . Because he gets breathless ,we can't go on nice walks together . Which makes me sad when I see couples out walking , and I walk with a group instead or on my own. How can the Government say this operation to remove excess stomach skin is cosmetic ,when it's medical & important for the health & wellbeing of the person concerned.

  • End Barren Battery Cages for Quails
    A barren battery cage ban was introduced in through the EU to protect the welfare of laying hens but it wasn't extended to include the beautiful egg laying quail. The vast majority of Quail are farmed intensively in barren battery cages or overcrowded barns. The EU produces over 100 million Quail but the industry is unregulated and there are no official published stastics on this. It blows our mind that there is still an unregulated industry. Quail is positioned and marketed as a "luxury" high end product that is a delicacy. Yet Quail are farmed intensively in battery cages and overcrowded barns. Many have as little space as a beer mat. The Quail industry creates suffering on an enormous scale when there is a better way. You can be the change by signing and sharing this petition to regulate the Quail industry. We believe we really all can be the change when we work together. Barren Battery Quail industries don't exist for hens due to regulations and they don't need to exist for Quails. Be the change and sign today.

  • Start Covid public enquiry immediately
    Following the recent serious claims made by Dominic Cummings, it is essential to investigate what lessons can be learnt from the Government's handling during the pandemic. This should be via a fast-tracked public enquiry with evidence given under oath and the findings published before the next General Election.

  • Abolish the Right to Buy Scheme in England
    In 2019, there was 280,000 people made homeless according to Shelter. This in itself highlights how the UK should follow in Scotland and Wales' footsteps by abolishing the RTB scheme this will help to protect the social housing and will allow for local authorities to house families on waiting lists. One of the main issues surrounding RTB is that the amount of social housing that is sold off, is almost never replaced as the UK Government previously promised due to a severe lack of funding within the housing markets. It can also be seen through Government statistics that some social housing is sold for around 5 times the price of the original Right To Buy price, showing how the RTB scheme is not so much in the peoples favour but now rather private landlords and for private developers sales. Join the fight of #goodbyeRTB and help us abolish the scheme that no longer favours the UK's people.

  • The Famous Punch Bowl, Warwick, is under threat.
    LOSS OF THE PUNCH BOWL https://www.facebook.com/groups/643182409721539/?ref=share Although this Facebook group was created for the exchange of information about the history of pubs that once served Warwick but no longer exist, it might provide a useful space to help prevent another Warwick pub joining the ‘Lost List’. As already reported, planning permission to convert the Punch Bowl into a single private dwelling has been sought - by Graham Beamish Architect, Lenchwick, Worcestershire on behalf of Secret Properties Limited, Leamington. Although planning permission has been sought, it could be denied. Permission is, in general, considered and ‘dealt with’ by the planning office staff. However, if sufficient objections are raised, the application will be considered by the planning committee of the District Council. If you object to the loss of this pub, please complete the form at https://planningdocuments.warwickdc.gov.uk/online-applications/applicationDetails.do?activeTab=makeComment&keyVal=_WARWI_DCAPR_88306. Refusal of permission can only be achieved by collective action - all objections submitted on this form are good and will highlight our concern. My reasons for retaining the Punch Bowl (and feel free to use any/all of them as you wish) will be focused on: 1. It is an asset to the community (often used for the social, well-being or social interests of the local community). 2. Unique to Warwick as it is the only regular music venue. 3. One of the very few pubs in Warwick providing room for social engagements e.g. wedding receptions. 4. One of the very few independent Warwick pubs - unattached to any large brewery. If there is sufficient interest in opposing Planning Application, it would be a good idea to start a Facebook Group for Saving the Punch Bowl. If there is any interest in forming a syndicate to buy the pub, that could also be organised through the new Facebook Group

  • Install anti-speeding measures on Hughenden Avenue
    On 20 May 2021, a 56 year-old man was killed by a car in a hit-and-run incident on Hughenden Avenue, near the Lisle Road junction. In November 2016, a resident of the road also died after being hit by a car around the same spot, while attempting to cross the road. Both incidents happened in the evening while it was dark, with both cars not noticing the pedestrians while coming down the hill at speed. We want additional safety measures to be installed to prevent further death and injury happening in our community, caused by dangerous driving.
