The area of concern has played host to a FunFair that has a long and glowing reputation for providing not only recreation for children but also has in the past raised money for the war effort and even managed to purchase a Spitfire Fighter for the War effort. Alongside the Fair can be found the Cricket pitch and Pavilion which is in use during the Cricket season and is very much a part of Village life. Had the Council had the necessary foresight they would have proposed to build the Centre on land especially purchased for this venture i.e. Naishes field across the road from the NNR site and out of harms way. There are several options available on this site for developing the Centre including one option that would utilise an underpass to keep visitors away from crossing Swincoate road. Bear in mind the Council in it's infinite wisdom failed to get the last centre built without causing serious problems even to the extent of building over the roots of several Veteran Oak Trees, at least one has since died. They also failed to take account of disabled persons and access to the forest and that even today have failed to rectify matters. Please give your support to this petition and help the forest and NNR to stay intact for future generations to come. Thank You from all concerned.

This petition was sent to Wellingborough Council who are now considering options, however, we wish to keep up the pressure not to make changes to this children's play equipment. Please keep signing. It is wrong that one person moving into the area almost 5 years after the children's play area was established can remove something that many children enjoy over the summer. The park is adjacent to a busy pathway linking one of the town's main car parks to the town centre and there are a number of lively pubs with live music in the vicinity and a busy main road with heavy traffic. It is unfair to pick on the gentle sounds of the children's toys in a safe walled park garden when so much other noise pollution exist. Extract from Northamptonshire Telegraph (2/12/2015): A resident’s noise complaint about play equipment near her home may lead to it being silenced or moved to a completely new location. Sound cushions have been part of the play area at Croyland Gardens in Wellingborough since it was installed in 2011. When it was designed, members of the working party wanted the play area to be as interactive as possible so four sound cushions were incorporated in the design. But after planning permission was granted in 2012 to convert the Avon House building from offices to flats, a noise complaint made by a resident in May this year has prompted Wellingborough Council to investigate. Environmental protection officers looked into the complaint and were concerned that the noise levels being produced by the stepping stones were ‘loud and very tonal.’ ... Councillors will discuss the issue at a meeting starting at 7pm on Monday, December 7, at Swanspool House in Wellingborough.

He is a popular television personality, and what the BBC don't realise is that they have dismissed what was a popular and regular television figure, and many viewers will miss this. The BBC once got rid of Moira Stuart, until they realized their mistake, and now she's back BBC Radio Two's Chris Evan's Breakfast Show.

Did you know that 94% OF RADIO 1’S MOST-PLAYED SONGS IN 2014 WERE MAJOR LABEL RELEASES? This means that they were signed to one of 3 labels Sony, Warners or Universal. We call for the BBC Radio 1 & 2 to represent the incredible music talent the exists within the UK on it's playlists by committing 30% of its playlist to music released by independent artists or labels. Jon Gomm who has has over 14 MILLION hits on his online videos says : "despite touring worldwide (I write this from my hotel room in Mongolia) and having hundreds of thousands of fans, I've literally never, ever been played on BBC radio. Not once." There are currently thousands of labels and artists who's careers would be transformed if they were play-listed by Radio 1 & 2. However, their music isn't being heard and doesn't stand a chance of being heard, no matter how good as as the three major labels monopolise the playlists. On Radio 1 this is how it looked in 2014: Warners 25%, Sony 20% and Universal 45%. This is despite the fact the BBC is a public funded body who should represent their listeners, they simply support huge corporations and NOT artists. In fact 32% of Radio X (formerly XFM) output was from independent artists, and they are a commercial station. We call for the BBC Radio 1 & 2 to represent the incredible music talent the exists within the UK on it's playlists by committing 30% of its playlist to music released by independent artists or labels.

Depriving the local community of an amazing centre piece to the park and is disrespectful as its a memorial to the man who donated the land in the first place to the town so we could have a park . We want our kids to see it in its working glory like we did years ago.. History..... Dane Park was previously farmland and a great local resident, John Woodward, purchased it at an auction in 1895. Mr Woodward presented the land to the inhabitants of Margate to form the park, together with additional land for forming and widening the surrounding roads and six acres of building land on the south west side of the park, with the proceeds derived from the sale to be devoted towards the expenses of the park. Dane Park was opened by the Lord Mayor of London on June 1, 1898. Dane Park had a substantial lake, rustic bridges, swans and peacocks, refreshment rooms and a bandstand. The fountain was erected by the corporation of Margate as a memorial to the late John Woodward, who was a native of Margate and a great generous man! . The lake has been filled in and the Fountain shut down and lost to the town . Shame this memorial to an enormous gesture to the town has been turned into a flower pot !! . So disrespectful to a great man...

The proposals were developed in consultation with the local community, prioritising feedback from rough sleepers at the group's weekly Love Kitchen. Love Activists hope to gather 1250 signatures to force the council to debate the proposals at a full council meeting. Reasoning/Rationale: 1. In May, the Supreme Court ruled that when local authorities make vulnerability assessments, a 'homeless person' should be compared with an 'ordinary person who is at risk of becoming homeless'. There is no doubt that any homeless person is 'significantly more vulnerable' than an ordinary person, therefore everybody living on the street should be assessed as being in priority need. The judgement also made it clear that while councils are often under huge financial strain, this must not be used as an excuse for avoiding their legal duties. To guarantee duty of care and legal obligations are met, all local authorities must provide permanent housing for anybody living on the streets. 2. Housing first pilot project had a 70% success rate in Brighton & Hove - helping 7 out of 10 people with high support needs into accommodation. 3. Extended winter provision: additional services provided over a period of time e.g. every night from November to March. If the material resources exist to provide shelter from a severe weather emergency, economic arguments against keeping the shelters open are not as powerful as the humanitarian ones for opening them. (Copy & pasted from 'Homeless Link') Humanitarian Response: SWEP should be applied responsibly to prevent death at all times; 3 consecutive nights at zero or below is the minimum requirement. Local authorities should consider factors such as wet weather and wind chill, snow coverage and duration of extreme weather when looking at provision. Preventing deaths on the streets is the aim of the protocol, so if this demands more beds and a longer response the local authority should do everything it can to prevent harm to individuals. Economics cannot change the weather any more than economics can determine people's relative vulnerability to each other. 4. It doesn't have to be severely wet to have a severe impact if you're sleeping on the streets. Severely windy, wet weather is an emergency, as is extremely hot, dry weather. Homeless Link offers advice and guidance to BHT, St Mungo's and Brighton & Hove City Council. Currently their minimum definition of severe weather is when the temperature drops below zero for three consecutive nights. (Copy & pasted from 'Homeless Link') There is no strict definition of what counts as ‘severe weather’. Local authorities should proactively identify any weather that could increase the risk of serious harm to people sleeping rough and put measures in place to minimise this. This includes extreme cold, wind and rain. It is important not to presume when, or in what form, severe weather will occur. Sleeping rough is never comfortable, but the suffering is exacerbated by all elements It doesn't have to be severely wet to have a severe impact if you're sleeping on the streets. ('Homeless Link') http://www.homeless.org.uk/sites/default/files/site-attachments/Winter%20provision%20guidance%202015-16.pdf 5. If this doesn't happen there will be no truly affordable places to live and more people will inevitably become homeless. 6. This would make use of empty properties, keep people safe and avoid waste of tax payers money, private money and time spent on security, policing and court costs. (Copy & pasted from 'Homeless Link') In addition to the direct risk associated with severe weather, local authorities should work alongside other local statutory and voluntary services to identify and mitigate actions taken during severe weather that can increase risk for those sleeping rough. For example, people may choose to sleep in riskier places, such as in bins, where they can find cover. They may also enter buildings or property illegally, or increase their substance use as a coping mechanism. 7. No single authority can successfully move to implement all of these measures, because if they 'move first', their service capacity would risk being overwhelmed by people migrating to that local authority. Therefore, we must work towards implementing these measures nationally. [email protected] twitter.com/loveactivists_ facebook.com/loveactivistsbrighton

Krusher Joule the living legend first came to the public's attention in 1982 when he became Art Director of the then Bible of Heavy Metal magazine Kerrang!.  Before that he was known as Steve Joule who had worked as a freelance designer in the music industry since 1976 producing work for the likes of Motorhead, Sammy Hagar, Uriah Heep, Gamma, Girlschool, Blondie and The Sex Pistols.  He has designed album sleeves for Hawkwind 'Live ’79', Gary Moore 'Dirty Fingers' and 'Live at the Marquee', Iron Maiden 'Live After Death', Ozzy Osbourne 'Diary of a Madman', 'Speak of the Devil' and 'Bark at the Moon', Japan and Black Sabbath 'Born Again' which apparently Ian Gillan, the then vocalist with the band was quoted as saying; “I took one look at the cover and puked!”, whilst both Deicide’s Glenn Benton and Soulfly’s Max Cavalera have claimed it to be their favourite album sleeve of all time.  Also whilst still working for Kerrang! Krusher designed a series of official biography books including Iron Maiden’s 'Running Free', Motley Crue’s 'The First Five Years' and Twisted Sister’s 'The First Official Book' and not forgetting tour programmes for AC/DC, Deep Purple, Robert Plant, Anthrax, Accept and Europe.  His work has also included designing and editing the official Donington 'Monsters of Rock' programmes since 1986 and he has also compered and DJ’ed the festival in 1994, ’95 and ’96.  In 1989 Krusher was offered his own radio rock show, 'Krusher’s Metal Mayhem' by the BBC which he presented on Greater London Radio. He was also approached to host and DJ the rock night at the Hippodrome club in the heart of London’s West End.  It was a club night that would regularly see eighteen hundred people crowd into the venue where they would be treated to impromptu live performances by the likes of Bon Jovi, Skid Row and Motorhead who all frequented the club on a regular basis as did Metallica, Motley Crue and Iron Maiden or whichever rock band was passing through town that week. Unfortunately like all good things both the radio show and the club came to an end, but not before becoming landmarks in the history of London rock.  In 1992 Krusher became co-presenter along with his Jack Russell terrier Bullseye of 'Raw Power' the UK’s only terrestrial TV rock show and voted best TV show in the Kerrang! Readers poll in both 1992 and ’93.  In 1994 the show changed its name to 'Noisy Mothers' a name which Krusher hated, always believing it should have been called 'Watch with Motherf****r' but which again was voted best TV show by Kerrang! and Metal Hammer readers for the next two years. Sadly Christmas 1995 saw the last ever 'Noisy Mothers' broadcast, the powers that be in TV land deciding that rock was a dying industry and therefore warranted no place on our TV screens.

Ramsgate Sprint Revival in 2015 was a brilliant event generating huge interest locally in Thanet and beyond. This event brought over £350,000 to the Ramsgate area and many 10,000's of people from the locality, from around the UK and abroad. We, the people of Ramsgate and Thanet, ask that the Council permits this event to run, through joint discussions with the much smaller event which could be moved to either another date or to use one of the other parks such as Ellington Park or King George VIth Park.

A privatised Channel 4 wouldn't be the same. Its focus on innovation would disappear as shareholder profits become the only priority. It would cut its work with hundreds of independent producers. We don't need another Channel 5, ITV or Sky News. Some of us enjoy Channel 4 News with Jon Snow. Some of us enjoy Countdown. Some of us enjoy Made in Chelsea. All of us want Channel 4 to stay OURS. Channel 4 is like no other broadcaster. It's a national treasure with a duty to make innovative programmes and reflect the diversity of British society. Keep it that way. "The notion that a privatised Channel 4 would continue to invest significant sums in news and current affairs or make equity investments in British feature films, or try out more programme ideas each year than any other channel, is utterly illusory." David Puttnam, film producer “I can imagine getting a call in the middle of the night from a shareholder sharing their view about something we were going to air that was going to have a lot of impact...The nature of that coverage would subtly change over time. And the fierce independence of our journalism, I can’t help but think, would alter over time.” David Abrahams, Chief Executive of Channel 4 Read more about Channel 4 on the We Own It website http://weownit.org.uk/evidence/channel-4

Because the Sun routinely headlines lies & mis-information that promotes race hatred & misunderstanding in the UK. The front page headline used on 23/11/2015 for instance may be mathematically correct but and its a big but, this depends what question was asked of the people they polled. The question is at best skewed. It's a general question and not specific. The question asked was "How do you feel about young Muslims who leave the UK to join fighters in Syria?" It didn't ask for instance which side these young people would be fighting on or if they would be jihadists. The Sun helpfully misguide their readers by adding a photograph of so called "Jihadi John". You can make your own complaint here too: https://www.ipso.co.uk/oxbxApps/app/complaint1.html
