We need changes to make our roads safer and to make our communities more people friendly. Reducing speed limits to 20mph would help do this. When Portsmouth put 20mph limits across all residential roads, average speeds dropped by 7mph. Hull's 20mph zones reduced child pedestrian casualties by 74%. In July 2021, Stockport Council formally recognised the arguments in support of 20mph speed limits and agreed to 20mph for all its residential roads. The Council resolved to set up a working group to make this happen. Into October, and the cross-party group has not yet formed. We, the undersigned residents of Stockport, urge Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council to act on its agreement and implement a Borough-wide 20mph limit as a matter of urgency

New electric vehicles and heat pumps are demanding more and more electrical generation. New electric vehicles and heat pumps are demanding more and more electrical generation. Solar panels on houses and businesses could provide this, but at this time new houses are not being fitted with them; there is no requirement. This is clearly a missed opportunity. Installing Solar panels during construction is clearly easier and cheaper than retrospectively. Electrical generation at the home where electric vehicles are charged and heat pumps are to be located avoids transmission losses and more power station generation. Once connected solar panels immediately combat climate change. So we ask that legislation or regulation be initiated without delay to install solar panels and storage batteries on all new housing. Action is needed by government to compel developers to install solar panels on new buildings. MPs have been contacted but no action has resulted. A concerted action by large numbers of people could result in a change of government policy. The need is urgent - the climate emergency demands action now.

I think its deplorable that my son and many young adults with life limiting disabilities up and down the UK, are forced to go into job centres and sit and be degraded in front of strangers to prove they are incapable of getting a job. Before being entitled to claim any benefit money (which they have to wait 6/8wks for) the beginning is only a standard allowance with a doctors sick note, until a medical assessment is completed. These rules need to change for the better and generations to come that will no doubt have to endure the same spectacle. A letter from the young adults consultant should be the only form required to claim such benefits as we do for PIP.

Ministers are reportedly planning to lower the salary level at which graduates start to repay their student loan to a salary of under £25,000, maybe as low as £20,000. During a time where young people have sacrificed so much from astronomical university fees only for an online education in addition to the increased tax rates that we will face for many years to come, this current proposal will hit the younger generation particularly hard and widen the gap further between the working class and the wealthy. At an already stretched time of job losses and high tax rates, lowering the threshold to such a low amount would be an injustice. Those who have been to university, are currently attending university or those who would like to go - this is yet another large bill you will have to foot ultimately reducing your ability (even further) to be able to one day own a home for yourself or your family.

I feel we should be fighting for this change to be able to provide the right milk alternatives for children who are in low income families. And its important for their development just as much as cows milk. I am a single mother who has a child who needs milk alternatives in her diet due to having a milk allergy. I receive healthy start vouchers and these do not allow to buy milk alternatives with the vouchers i really think that they should be used to purchase milk alternatives as well as cows milk, fruit, veg and pulses. Milk alternatives are similar prices to cows milk but come in a 2 litre carton which lasts up to 3 days depending on how much a child drinks. When you are on a very low income it gets expensive and its essential your child has this as a source of nutrition. I would be grateful if you can take time to consider this as a change to healthy start vouchers as this is a must in so many young children's lives and many of these children are of low income families in receipt of these vouchers.

I am a care assistant. The problem that we are having is we have a very very hard job working in care homes - people don't realise how much work you have to do. And we're on such a basic wage. My daughter makes beds at Travelodge and they are on 11.00 an hour. I don't understand how that can be right. Nurses think they have a hard job but they get paid well. Us care assistants are only on a basic wage. Which I think is appalling

People power matters. We have a duty to protect our pensioners from being unable to support themselves financially whilst on state pension. Our state pension is one of the lowest in the Western World and this cannot be right.

I am finding it increasingly heart breaking to hear about the amount of attacks and assaults happening in dimly lit or dark areas, mostly community parks. Aside from assaults happening in a persons own home or partners home, Assaults In a park/other open public place comes third. I believe that we could eradicate the risk of these attacks by lighting up these areas and/or locking up. I am aware that both comes with a cost and budget restraints hinder this however, the cost of a life is much more valuable. Not only are many parks not lit up they fail to have basic CCTV in many of the areas, I believe that although this will not stop perpetrators it may deter them or at the very worst supply victims with evidence against the perpetrator The recent heart breaking story of Sabina Nessa, only brings to light the fact that many Parks and recreational areas are goldmines for perpetrators to commit heinous crimes. How is it that in the twenty first century we have so much technology and knowledge however we can not make simple changes to reduce the chance of these type of attacks happening. We apparently live in a "Big Brother" culture, so how is it when these types of crimes happen, mostly around dark parks that little to no CCTV footage is ever found? I am aware that the lighting or locking up of these areas can not fully stop attacks and assaults from happening however surely this action could potentially help to reduce the risk? I do think that it is very poor in this day and age of technology that these assaults are going under the radar.

On all roads in the U.K.

It is completely unnecessary for this dye to be used in food, drinks, chocolates where a more humane alternative is readily available. In regards to RED chocolate shells where this is commonly used, it is probably best to omit said colour, rendering the chocolates vegetarian and also avoid parents/children mistakenly consuming these unwittingly.

Private carers are the backbone of the country where caring is concerned and it is a shame that the government doesn't recognise this.

Too many people are having to travel 100s miles away to access treatment and therefore don’t see their friends/family for months
