• Lower Breast Screening Age
    The amount of ladies having breast cancer is enormous and way too many are dying because screening isn't available until you are 50. I was one of the lucky ones at the age of 38 been diagnosed with Breast Cancer and now a survivor.

  • Withhold Welsh Support for Nuclear Weapons
    Currently, the UK Government has announced that they will be increasing the stock of Trident by 40%. I, and I expect the people of Wales, believe that this is a worrying move. Is it really in the Welsh public’s interest to be part of this expansion? Does this make us safer? Soon, the Welsh Parliament must ask itself; “What side of history do we want to be on?”. Let’s make it the right side.

  • WE HAVE A RIGHT TO THE NIGHT
    We have a right to go without fear of violence by day and night. We have a right to safety in our cities, streets, homes and communities. This is a human right. A right we should and must all have, regardless of our gender identity, race, religion, class, sexuality and dis/abilities. A right that some were born with and some still need to claim everyday. It is vital to rethink who’s at threat in the streets and all public places. With the “ We have a right to the night” campaign, we are reclaiming our nights, standing together in memory of Sarah Everard and all people harmed by state and gendered violence. We won’t stay silent. We won’t let anyone telling us again to stay indoors for our safety. Enough is enough. We must stop being blamed for the violence towards us. Telling us how we should behave for our safety is allowing abusers to take up space. It’s giving them the power to keep insulting, catcalling, spiting, grabbing, slapping, punching, raping, murdering us. We also want to address the key role that education has in the deconstruction of a patriarchal system that perpetuates oppression and exploitation. We must question and rethink our children’s education. We must start educating our sons in the respect of everybody. We must stop teaching our daughters to be scared but empower them. We must give space and listen to LBGTQIA+ children / teenagers, for them to embrace and celebrate their identities. Last week a woman was killed. Killed by the system we’re told protects. Once more. It’s a moment where people need space to mourn, share and rise up. Injustice tightens the need to stand in togetherness. It’s a time to care for Sarah Everard’s murder. And beyond. It’s a time to care for each other and make sure no one is left behind. We must deconstruct the old political discourse around gender violence, so we can protect, support and give space to all victims. We are disgusted but not surprised that the only response that was made by authorities was to increase police presence in our streets. More police has never been the answer. Police violence is a reality for many of us, especially for BIPOC, sex workers, trans and non-binary people. Sarah Everad’s murder proves us once more that we can’t feel protected by the police. How could we trust an institution that was created to protect people in power ? How could we trust them when they cannot even ensure the reliability of their own staff members ? How could we trust an institution that is racist, misogynistic, homophobic and transphobic? We will hold boroughs, MPs, councils and the government accountable for not putting everything in place to end all gendered violence, including police, state and interpersonal. We will hold them accountable for the police brutality during last Saturday’s vigil. However, we want to recognize all the existent strategies that we have always created to keep each other safe and we want to keep on building more. We claim that we don’t need our abusers to patronize us into power dynamics disguised as fake protection. We can and will keep on showing up for each other, extending our solidarity and creating further our resistance. Our campaign aims to give visibility to all victims of male violence and we urge that actions are taken to end all gendered violence. Inspired by The Outside Project’s COVID19 campaign ‘make space for homeless queers’, we are inviting all victims and survivors of male violences to take a picture of themselves holding our online protest message “ We have a right to the night #reclaimthestreets #stopallgenderedviolences” and share it on their social medias as well as signing this petition. This letter is for those of you who have experienced any type of male violences in the streets, in your homes, at work — and all public spaces. We stand beside all of you regardless of your gender, sexuality, dis/abilities, ethnic, religious and class background. UNITED WE WILL NEVER BE DEFEATED !

  • Entertainment centre for the youth of Burton Upon Trent
    The young people are bored, there is absolutely nothing for them to do for fun. We need to show them all the things that they can do, they don’t know what talents they have or what they love because they haven’t gotten the chance to. Some people have never left this town or maybe can’t afford to so they have never experienced fun and activities outside of school or college. They need to be stimulated, educated and taken care of by this town and it’s doing a terrible job of it.

  • Protect care home residents equally. Quality Assurance team to cover self funders, too.
    Elderly self funders in care homes, especially those with dementia, often lack mental capacity. They are highly vulnerable, and unable to discern good or safe care from bad, unsafe or abusive care. They are therefore NOT customers, which is how they're currently treated. They can't choose their care, and family advocates, especially in this pandemic, are too often unaware, or excluded, unable to support or protect their loved ones. If the Quality Assurance team is solely for social services funded people, its name should reflect its purpose, which is revenue protection.

  • Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill 2021
    The words of the Met Police Commissioner in calling for more police powers over demonstrations are chillingly frank about the target of such proposed legislation. Protest is fundamental to democracy in that it allows citizens to gather together to air issues, generate support for them and publicise the strength of feeling about those issues to policy-makers, who cannot, or will not, facilitate proper debate about these issues amongst the citizenry itself and not just within a parliament dragooned into following party leadership instructions. Protest is inevitably ‘inconvenient’ but it is often only when our lives are disrupted that we sit up and take notice of what is happening to us and around us. We know from experience how restrictions designed, purportedly, to cover a very specific ‘concern’ have an uncanny habit of being rolled over into all sorts of circumstances. “Ever since the first large-scale Extinction Rebellion protest in April last year I have been talking publicly and with the government about the potential for change to powers and to legislation that would enable the police to deal better with protests in general given that the act that we work to – the Public Order Act – is now very old, [dating to] 1986 But specifically to deal with protests where people are not primarily violent or seriously disorderly but, as in this instance, had an avowed intent to bring policing to its knees and the city to a halt and were prepared to use the methods we all know they did to do that.” Metropolitan Police Commissioner, Cressida Dick

  • Abolish Tolls on the Tamar Bridge
    Traditionally SE Cornwall and Plymouth have lower affluence and salaries than contemporary areas yet logistics operators small business owners and private commuters have to pay to travel to economic, education, employment and health services due to bridge toll. This is a section of trunk highway A38 from Bodmin to Mansfield and the operational costs of the bridge SHOULD be born from National transport taxation not local tolls

  • Objection to Proposed Boundary changes Lambeth
    The Local Government Boundary Commission is proposing changes to the ward boundaries across Lambeth borough. The Commission recommends the creation of a much smaller ward for our area, creating a “Streatham Common Ward”, which will include the Streatham Lodge Community area. This will then become the smallest ward in the borough of Lambeth. Importantly this would result in losing our current 3 councillor status and moving to representation by just one councillor, we would be the only ward in the entire borough to have just one councillor representation. For many years the three councillor system has proved very effective and a great deal has been achieved. We believe that this proposal is unacceptable for a variety of reasons and not least that a single councillor would be stretched beyond their limits. A single councillor will present many practical difficulties without the cover of a second councillor. The problem is particularly acute in addressing the many problems associated with the use of the Common, which, at times, need urgent and immediate attention. Further, many councillors also serve roles in the council (such as a Council’s cabinet member) in addition to their normal councillor duties. It will be almost impossible for a single councillor to take up such multiple roles. This will significantly reduce our representation at the council’s executive level. It would also sever ties we have currently with the wider ward. Streatham Lodge is a residential area. However, our children go to schools outside our area; we shop, use leisure facilities and workship in places in adjoining areas. By isolating us in a small ward, our single councillor will have little or no influence on decisions made for these establishment outside of our ward, in the adjoining areas. We need to be part of a bigger ward to have an effective voice and are able to play a part in decisions and matters that are important to our daily life and to the future of the area’s character. Severing the ties with our traditional “neighbours”. For many decades, we have been part of the Streatham South culture sharing many commonalities with our neighbours in the adjoining areas. By confining us into a small ward away from the Streatham South culture, it will sever our cultural link with our traditional neighbours and the ability to jointly develop this attractive culture further. It is therefore important that you sign this petition, so together we can ask the Commission to understand the importance of the issues outined above and to incorporate Streatham Lodge Community into a bigger ward in Streatham South. https://consultation.lgbce.org.uk/have-your-say/21383
