  • Rename Flushable Wipes
    Many things get accidently put down the toilet but these wipes are designed to be flushed away. However, they do not dissolve in water like paper does. They end up being removed from our sewers by the water companies. They are causing damage to the environment and causing blockages of our sewers. This damage costs thousands of pounds to clear. Only three things should go down your toilet, pee, poo and paper. Although flushable wipes will go down the toilet, the water companies then claim they block sewers and if a sewer cant be cleared, the water companies use an emergency action which can send sewerage directly into our water courses. This leads to damage to the environment. Although all these companies claim their products will disperse in water, it has been shown in tests that they do not, even after being subjected to tests which emulate 10 years in moving water.

  • Forfeiture of Academic Honorary Fellowships
    These people have been found to have taken part in the cover-up of Hillsborough by the courts. Therefore they are no longer worthy to hold a fellowship. They have been found to be dishonest and untrustworthy. Characteristics that should not be seen to be rewarded with such honors. This is one more step for justice for the 96 and their families.

  • Stop the Eviction of IndyCamp at Holyrood
    Indycamp is not just a pro-independence camp outside of Holyrood, despite how it is portrayed in the media. It is a camp which continually educates and engages in political discussion about some of the worst social injustices we face as a society. Whether that be unregulated banking, general corruption, austerity, benefits and the vilification of benefits claimants, the NHS or for the poorest and most vulnerable in our society - it has continually brought to light some of the more severe issues we face as a society. This case is about more than just the removal of a camp, whether most people realise it or not, it is about the way in which the camp is being removed. You see, Government have used the Scotland Act to transfer public assets, namely the ground around parliament, to a private body, known as the Parliamentary Corporate Body. This body, has at its disposal the full force of parliament and government without having to justify itself to parliament. This sets a dangerous precedent, because when the SPCB took the camp to court, they did so under private law of a corporation and not law applicable to a public organisation. In otherwords, the precedent this sets, is to allow public organisations to transfer land and assets to private entities in order to usurp the public's fundamental rights and freedoms, particularly the freedom to protest your own government in a manner of your choosing should you remain peaceful. In a nutshell, it sets the precedent, that all any publicly accountable organisation need do, is transfer its assets to a corporate body and suddenly it does not have to deal with being publicly accountable. I am asking you to support the camp today, not for them, but for yourselves. It is not acceptable for assets you own as a member of the public to be transferred to a private entity. I am asking you to support the camp, because the precedent this will set will erode, not only those at the camps fundamental rights, but also yours as an individual. One day you may wake up after suffering injustice and find that you have to seek permission (like indycamp) from the people you wish to protest, and if you fail to do so, you will find yourself in court, bankrupt and destitute because you refused to ask their permission to protest them. The precedent before the court, of course being the SPCB vs Indycamp. This is not about a camp and land, it is about your fundamental human rights, which you should never have to ask for, but instead should just automatically have.

  • Improve local shopping centre
    It has not had much money spent on it since the 1960's and is under utilised . Just down the road is open land where a school used to be, that could even be used to relocate The Square or the market stalls that have been coming once a month. I think it would bring a sense of community pride and improve the landscape of Netherton because at the moment it looks tired and old.

  • Get Kaye Adams off Radio Scotland.
    The BBC licence payers are paying for a phone in programme which Kaye Adams runs as her personnel programme for her views, and passes her views on the listeners comments. Her programme about the Alleged Ched Evans rape case was ill conceived and for Kaye Adams to ask, “Someone might say what kind of woman wants to be in a hotel room blind drunk, making themselves vulnerable?”, is unforgivable and should have had her removed instantly from the BBC. Is she still on the BBC because it is run by people who think that way about women.

  • Save the Cystic Fibrosis Clinic at Poole Hospital
    This clinic allows children and adults who live with cystic fibrosis to easily access the specialist care they need. Health bosses have said the clinic is "likely" to be cut early next year due to "staffing changes". My daughter has cystic fibrosis and visits this clinic regularly to get essential care. People like my family have relied on this clinic all of our lives. If the centre is cut, already stretched families will have to travel to Southampton to access the same services. For me this would mean my daughter taking extra days off school in order to get the treatments she relies on.

  • Fund Inner London's only Disability Gym
    Ability Bow is the only place in inner London that provides long term rehabilitation to help people who have a disability, an injury or a long-term health condition. For many it is be a life-changing experience. There are thousands of people that Ability Bow has helped over the last 10 years. Margaret is a stroke survivor who regained near full use of her body after doctors wrote her off. Albert had a spine broken in two places and learned to walk again. There are hundreds of stories like these here. We are asking for the assistance of a government partner to safeguard the future of this vital service. I do not know where I would be without this place. I started this campaign to raise awareness and make sure that people get the help they need to improve their lives.
