The principle of reciprocity currently seems violated by those refusing to pay what they are due whilst taking full advantage of their right to have their voice heard in how the nation is governed; seemingly undermining the principles of a democratic nation. Depriving tax dodgers of their right to vote may help tackle this trend, whilst adding to the national treasury, which seemingly fits in with the intent of current austerity programmes.

There is far to much food waste when we have people going hungry. All stores should be required to donate unwanted food to charities and to food banks. It should apply to any supermarket with a footprint of 400 square metres or larger. If companies flout the law they are to incur fines. Supermarkets are to sign a donation deal with charities, which will be able to increase the quality and diversity of food that they currently get and distribute. In terms of nutritional balance, they currently have a deficit of meat and a lack of fresh fruit and vegetables. This will hopefully allow food-banks to push a fresh source of nutritional quality food to people and families in need.

David Cameron announced we’ll welcome 20,000 more Syrian refugees. But there’s a catch. This will take 5 years, leaving thousands of refugees in limbo. It’s now up to us to show that in cities, towns and villages all across the country we’re ready to welcome people now. Aylan, the toddler who drowned fleeing Syria, was just three years old. His town was under attack by Isis. His five year old brother and his mum also died trying to reach safety.We don't want Britain to be the kind of country that turns its back as people drown in their desperation to flee places like Syria. So let's stand up for Britain's long tradition of helping refugees fleeing war. Let's show the Prime Minister that we, the people of the UK, are proud to do our part and provide refuge to people in their hour of need.

This is important because the UK is currently ruled by a Conservative government who are in power by the slimmest of margins. If all the people who were denied a postal vote had voted, would the outcome be different? Would the UK not now be suffering from the effects of austerity, the threat of fracking, the withdrawal of welfare and services to the needy and the tripling of the national debt? If the UK is a truly democratic country, I think this needs to be investigated.

Politics in the UK, EU and across the world has never been more important, nor has the need to satirise it. Currently MSM fails to question our politicians in a way that resonates. Maybe our news and current affairs programmes have always been that way, but TV programming hasn't. Spitting Image was the attack dog of the MSM in the 80's. It didn't matter who you were, if you were a public figure, it would tackle you, it would bring you to the ground, it would openly challenge you and it would mock you. But always in a humorous way. Yes it was offensive, but more importantly it was truthful, accurate and downright side splittingly funny. We need this now more than ever.

UK's foreign policy is the root cause of injustice that in return has contributed to nurturing extremism, terrorism, wars and massive human casualties. It is the reason why there's a migration crisis that is further dividing people rather than growing harmony. The UK discriminates Nations and Humans based on its national interests. For example, the UK doesn't see Saudi Arabia as a Regime, even though it sees Syria and Russia or any other nation that doesn't full fill its national interests as Regimes.

For the leader of our country to make remarks so carelessly about such a terrible issue is in my eyes unforgivable and shameful. This is the man elected to represent us all in the UK on the world stage and I for one would like to see him make amends for this error by learning more about the issue he casually commented on.

Some say there is no alternative but Rochdale Borough Council could use just a portion of its £169.6m in useable reserves to avoid making the £37m worth of cuts over the next two years. Even the Government suggest that ‘local authorities lessen the impact of budget cuts by tapping into their huge reserve pots’ – Telegraph, 31st August. We call on the Labour group on Rochdale Borough Council to take these steps whilst councillors go out into the communities, workplaces and trade union branches to build support for a no-cuts budget and have a genuine consultation with the people of Rochdale. They could then make an appeal to other Labour councils to do the same, making the Tory government’s savage cuts unworkable. Jeremy Corbyn said in his election campaign that councils should stand together against the cuts. This is the direction that the Labour Party must go in to end austerity and safeguard our public services.

NORTH Herefordshire MP Bill Wiggin has been accused of helping tax-avoiding hedge funds set up shop on 'sunny offshore islands' in a recent edition of Private Eye. This should not be allowed because it can cause a conflict of interest & lead to bias in favour of companies they work for usually big corporation there should be a level playing field not just for the wealthy MP's are supposed to represent everyone in Society not just the privileged few!

It is of national importance that the renewal of Trident as a nuclear 'deterrent' should be put forward to the people of Britain. Using clear and concise language the arguments for and against its renewal should be debated and presented to the public so that they can make an informed decision about whether they wish to renew Trident or not. Trident's renewal is not an issue that can be decided by parliamentarians on our behalf, it does require the unequivocal support of the people, via direct democracy. Any decision that would have direct implications on our nation's present and future, to the extent that renewing our nuclear capabilities has, is of the highest importance and should only be decided on a one person one vote basis.

Currently many members of his Wadebridge West believe he is not fulfilling his council duties while he serves as a Westminster member of parliament.

The future of NHS is a source of worry for a great swathe of the population. A huge majority of Doctors, experts and professionals linked with the NHS, see Jeremy Hunt's plans as a destructive force for a public service we all hold so dear. Many of his stats (such as the 20% increased likelihood of dying from a stroke at the weekend) have been called out as incorrect by those within the industry. As well as false media claims that those involved are quaffing champagne, whilst one doctor's payslip recently proved that it is possible to be paid as little as £2.61 an hour currently. The NHS is an important part of British culture and seen by many as one of the proudest achievements of Western democracy. The fact that it has currently been dragged into a slagging match at a national level, isn't the correct way to deal with such an issue. As it is a public service, and one that the public not only relies on but also holds in such high regard, the facts should be made public, with both sides allowed a say. Mr Hunt should show he holds the NHS is the same high regard as the public, by treating this situation with the respect it deserves and having an open public debate about these important issues.
