Their offers are all about a meat, chicken or fish choice as the first course, rarely is there a non meat choice and when there is, it's always pizza ! Statistics show that there are more non meat eaters now than ever before, why haven't the supermarkets used this opportunity to increase their sales ? I have personally contacted the local supermarkets, all of which are national chains and asked this question, they have always been very polite and say "I'll pass your question onto the relevant department" but I'm still waiting for there to be a positive outcome... Because like all consumers, non meat eaters are missing an important and equal opportunity.

Nigel Farage’s ‘breaking point’ poster was very similar to Nazi propaganda, and his message is racist. No radio station should be giving him a nightly slot. Please sign or share this petition.

My family and the majority of the residents have lived at the Spanish Battery for over 30 years. My parents and the neighbours were drawn to the area for the peace and quiet and of course the amazing views! This is a small haven less than 5 mins walk from the hustle and bustle of Front Street. Many visitors to the area comment on the tranquility of the place and are amazed to find such a quiet spot so close to front street. As a Tynemouth resident and as someone who has worked in Tynemouth for over 10 years I understand the importance of tourism and boosting the economy in the area. Whilst we are more than happy to welcome visitors and share the beauty and tranquility of the area some things need to be left untouched. There are over 25 places to go for a coffee and an abundance of food and drink establishments within an easy 5 minute walk of the proposed location. In order to proceed, the development relies upon the purchase and excavation of a large area of Public Open Space currently owned by North Tyneside Council. The main build will take at least 10 months with the closure to the public of the surrounding area! The construction project for this would be huge and have a rather negative impact on the environment - it would involve excavating to a depth of 6m over and area of 660m this equates to minimum of 4000m3 of earth - more than the size of an Olympic swimming pool! Concrete is one of the least environmentally sustainable materials and the concrete required for this project as a minimum is approx 1000m3. Excavation and concrete alone will involve over 1000 wagon loads of material It is important for people to be aware that one of the developers of the proposed new build has already had ambitious plans for a large residential property refused on this exact site in 2011. The council refused this on the grounds that it would be detrimental to the character and appearance of the conservation area and on the setting of a listed building - we feel strongly that this must also be applicable to the new proposal. Myself and the members of the Spanish Battery Association strongly oppose this idea. Please sign and share this petition to show your support and help preserve part of Tynemouth's History. Lets not ruin this outstanding area! ***Please be aware that since writing the original petition the developers have changed the plans and the current plans do not contain the word "function room". Current plans do say there will be "special occasions" although there is no indication as to what these may be***

Now we have a chance to get it up and running again and improve it with a Heritage Lottery Fund grant. But he only way we can do this is to generate interest in saving the green for its original purpose, so please sign our petition and show us your support, especially if you are interested in playing too. Unless we show support, we could lose it forever. There are larger plans for the park under HLF application - such as restoring and improving the large white house with its cafe, and reopening the greenhouse area. In consultation with the council, we largely support these plans, and of course want the HLF to help our park, but not destroy a precious area due to lack of interest in the green. Keep the green green! Save it and share it! Please sign our petition now! Thank you. Park users and local residents.

The idea of fining those who already have so little, that they are forced to sleep out in the cold or ask for food and money is a cruel and heartless act. This is attacking vulnerable people and does not resolving the issues homeless people face. Other campaigns have successfully stopped other councils from imposing similar fines. This campaign is based on this information from Shepway council's website: http://www.shepway.gov.uk/community/community-safety/public-spaces-protection-order-1 If you have anything that suggests that Shepway Council are no longer able to fine people for begging then we'd love to hear more from you, drop us an email at [email protected]

The communities where promised that when the council sold these hall's to Rose Leisure that the only changes we would see would be Investment and Improvement. All we have seen is the halls to be run down with no investment and Rose Leisure then selling these for a vast profit.

Update from Chris Bullen Guys we are now preparing a face book page and a petition outlining the truth.. this will be the official page about not saving the railway or even fundraising it is about saving the track. The council have demanded the rails to be removed by the end of February. So the railway operation can be tendered to any interested parties. However if these rails are removed when and if they are replaced the whole railway will need to be fully fenced both sides. As a Poole park user you know this is not possible or even likely and Chris Bullen feels he will be responsible for the demise on Poole park railway forever. Will keep you all updated on here till we have finalised the Facebook.. Chris bullen is deverstated at the news he received today in his meeting and only has the future of poolepark railway at heart for future generations regardless of who wins the tender.. Chris is so Humbled at all your comments of support and will fight this to the bitter end .. please note he is not dieing for cancer .. maybe a vicious rumour put around so he can bow out gracefully which he's not prepared to do . Please sign our petition .. THANKYOU XX

People are homeless for a wide range of reasons; many are vulnerable, experiencing mental illness or the impact of traumatic life events and most have no financial security. Any one of us with the right combination of unfortunate circumstances could find ourselves in a position of being homeless and of needing to resort to asking passersby for money or food. Please encourage our local Northamptonshire councils to find more effective and compassionate ways of dealing with the issues related to begging than imposing fines that homeless people are unlikely to be able to pay. This campaign is based on this information from Northampton council's website: http://www.northampton.gov.uk/downloads/file/9044/draft-public-spaces-protection-order If you have anything that suggests that Northampton Council are no longer planning to fine people for begging then we'd love to hear more from you, drop us an email at [email protected]

1.The Kino toilets, are used by the bikers who bring an awful lot of trade to the area and even in the winter visit in droves, and which are used by the bus drivers and is the only sensible and safe place to stop for the loo on most routes. Other residents, like myself, who are disabled or elderly cannot walk to the Mill Lanes toilets. I myself whilst waiting the other day needed the loo and couldn't go due to closures, and I cannot walk to other loo's which was frustrating! Don't put others through this dilemma. 2. It is not acceptable to expect people to pay for the loo's. It's meant to be convineient and it isn't if you don't have a 20p piece when you need the toilet. We pay council tax but see noting back! which we will struggle to find the money for (as if we cannot afford to keep them open in winter we cannot afford major renovations) and will be majory disruptive,

At almost two hundred years old, Northfields Allotments is London's oldest allotment site. It dates back to 1832, when the Bishop of London enclosed the site for use as allotments by the local community. The original allotments were more than twice their current size, however over half of the site was compulsorily purchased and built on several decades ago. We now fear that we could be facing the loss of the remainder of the site. Northfields Allotments is an important heritage site and we believe it should be given the same protection as Ealing’s many parks and public open spaces. The importance of allotments in London is recognised at the highest levels. The Mayor of London’s London Plan clearly states that “Boroughs should protect existing allotments” (section 7.22). The benefits provided by allotments are widely acknowledged. A large and growing body of academic research makes clear the social, mental and physical well-being benefits provided by community green spaces. What’s more, the Public Health Agency has identified numerous benefits of allotments to the community, including the promotion of good mental health, physical activity and nutrition, as well as the encouragement of social interaction. At Northfields Allotments, we have 141 plots with 72 people on the waiting list so demand is high. 29 plotholders live in flats meaning their allotment is their only garden. We have many families on site, with the result that the allotments provide approximately 50 children with a safe place to play and learn about nature. We have more than 25 retired plotholders who love the exercise, fresh air, and social aspect of being part of an allotment community. The allotments are an important habitat for a wide variety of wildlife, including hedgehogs, nesting birds and insects – and in particular stag beetles, which are endangered and protected. Bats are regularly sighted, not only feeding over the allotments, but also using the ancient hedgerows for navigation. These hedgerows are recognised by Ealing Council as a Site of Interest for Nature Conservation (SINC), which is supposed to provide protected under planning legislation. We recognise that housing is important, but so are green open spaces. It shouldn’t need to be a choice and there are alternative options that would allow Pathways to house its residents while leaving this historic site untouched by development. Ealing is already extremely built up. Once green space has been built on, it is lost to the community forever. This is why we implore Ealing Council’s planning department and planning committee to protect the allotments from development, whether that be now or at any point in the future.

After signing this petition please formally object via http://didcot.space (will redirect you to the Garden Town plan page) or send an email to [email protected] Comments can be as short or long as you like - just make it clear you object to building on Ladygrove Park. Consultation on these proposals has been extended to 28th February, so please do it now. Thank you! There are plans for 15,000 new houses to be built in Didcot as part of the "Didcot Garden Town" project. This is more than those planned for Bicester Garden Town, recently described as a "dog's breakfast" with ecologically important flower rich meadows being lost to housing. Proposals for Didcot have been announced that are WORSE than first feared. They include building technical office space and accommodation over roughly half of the Ladygrove recreation ground and play park. The remnants would be developed such that there would be no substantial level open green space for casual sports or recreation. A new road cutting across the play park and flats on the play park, opposite the Willowbrook and behind the football club with no additional parking serve to top of this awful proposal. The current morning congestion around the primary school would be intolerable. Our facilities, green spaces and paths integral to our local parkrun are threatened. You can see the briefings here : https://didcotgardentown.commonplace.is/news/2017/01/20/stakeholder-representative-group-presentation-19-january-2017 Campaigners in Bicester have been to court twice to try to protect their environment. If we are to protect our green spaces and amenities the time to act is now, by obtaining a simple undertaking from the project team before their plans are fully formed. If you want to save them please sign this petition and share it with your friends. Thank you! (You can see the Ladygrove areas initially marked out for development on the final pages of these two official downloads published by the Didcot Garden Town planners http://www.southoxon.gov.uk/node/18434 and this http://www.southoxon.gov.uk/node/18447 )

This has been a family run pub for 17 years. If these applications are allowed to pass, the landlord, a 68 year old man will be made homeless and the building will be redeveloped. Jonathon and Oz will no longer be running The White Bear. The end result is to re-open the pub after the refurbishments have been completed as a much smaller venue (lowered ceiling, reduced floor space) with no kitchen and no function room. This will mean no more home-cooked traditional food, no parties etc and with the rents this property company demand this will not be a sustainable business for anyone. They wish to make changes to the front of the listed building as well as redevelop the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th floors into self-contained flats. This will not be affordable housing for the residents of Islington, this will be yet more flats that local residents cannot afford to live in. We believe that, as a local community of residents and businesses, we need to pull together and fight for our local pub and stop allowing the 'big-cats' to force local residents out of areas that have been their homes their whole lives. This is important, not just for The White Bear, but for all of us.
