Successful Campaigns

UPDATE: 22/05/15 - The Vale of the White Horse District Council confirmed cross party support for keeping and refurbishing Abingdon Outdoor Pool at the council meeting last night. Yeh!

UPDATE 24/03/16 - Jo Churchill has withdrawn from the sponsored cycle ride for Headway charity following the publicity drawn by this petition! Victory!

UPDATE: 28/07/16 We campaigned against 38 trees being cut down, and I also wrote to the council planning department, raising a list of issues. They listened, though didn't meet with me, but that led to 23 trees being cut down, rather than 38, so we saved 15 trees! Thank you for your kind support, 38 Degrees staff xx.

16/10/17 - We won! Thank you for signing the petition Stop bus route changes to service 3 and 4, started by myself. I am delighted to say that Susan Elan Jones MP has released a statement this morning confirming the return of the services to the estate as of January or a trial basis. The service will be 1 per hour, which is sensible. Thank you to John Phillips and Susan Elan Jones for their work on this. Thank you to everyone who supported this petition.

Vale of Glamorgan Council declared a climate emergency...thank you for your help and support.

UPDATE - 02/07/15 - A big thank you to everyone who signed our save the Hopper petition, a fine example that people power can make a real difference. The service is now safe until April next year, but we must keep a very close eye, to ensure that the service is funded in the next financial year.

We need the 8AOT service! Hucknall people need this service - it is affordable, reliable and those in the West (Ruffs, Beauvale etc) of Hucknall really need this service as they do not have a bus service they can easily reach which can get them around Hucknall estates and Nottingham. SIGN & SHARE

UPDATE 31/7/14: At the last minute - less than four hours before his flight was due to leave - Kabran received the news that the injunction against his flight was successful and he would not be put on the plane. Although Kabran is still in detention, this is a massive relief and means he can apply for bail and have more time for his new claim to be considered. So please keep signing the petition to show your support. Many thanks to everyone who supported the campaign.

Update 19/06/14: The removal directions are cancelled. Hussein is not being deported on 20th June. However Hussein is still at potential risk of deportation in the future, so please keep signing the petition to show your support.

*UPDATE* on 10th March 2015 the Home Office devastatingly went ahead with the deportation of 32 people to Afghanistan. However- the amazing news is that 20 people were taken off the flight, including Sherdil, Shafiq and Izatullah!
