Christians are officially the most persecuted minority in the world at the moment, Jews have a long and painful history of persecution and Islamophobia is prevalent in our society. It would be wonderful for SE railway to start conversations amongst customers and colleagues by demonstrating how much all of these groups have in common. It would also combat religious illiteracy which is leading to intolerance in our society.

The Riverside view estate is quite isolated and can be dangerous to walk to and from. With the wagons that speed down the quay with no obvious speed limit indicated and the industrial estate behind is a hazard to walk through. The nearest bus service is the 11 from the marsh which is 15-20 minute walk away, or a 35 minute walk into the town centre which can be issue for young families, people who are unable to drive, disabled and the elderly.

Time is the most precious commodity we have. It is unacceptable for all of us to be late for work and equally disappointing and disruptive for us to get home late to our families every evening. Most of us have very tight busy schedules that make it imperative that we reach our destinations on time. For years now the British public have put up with the incompetent service provided by an array of rail companies. I propose that an instant refund should be applied immediately to your Oyster card when exiting a station for a severely delayed or cancelled service will firstly compensate the commuter for their disrupted journey, but also encourage rail companies to rectify the problem quickly for future journeys before they see their profits plummet via refunds. There must be a consequence for the rail companies when they are not delivering an efficient service. Commuters are the only ones that are suffering at the moment and I believe it is time to give something back to the commuter until the problem can be solved. I am aware that there are 3rd party companies that can search and claim refunds on your behalf but why is this not just standard from TFL why do I need to share my data with an outside unknown source in order to get compensation. Its should be immediate and provided by the TFL themselves. Lets make it happen.

On the 22nd July D&G bus Ltd are planning to cease providing transport to some of our towns within the city. The routes that will be affected are: * Service 2a, which runs from Birches head to Hanley, Festival park Newcastle and Westbury park, will be withdrawn completely; * The number 8 Hanley to Norton service, which runs via Smallthorne, will no longer operate on Sundays and bank holidays; *The number 20 from Hanley to Bentilee, Coalville. Meir and Longton will terminate at Coalville and wont run at all on Sundays; *Services 21A and 23A which operates between Hanley and Trentham Gardens will be withdrawn; *Services A, B and C linking Stone. Walton, Cherryfields Stonefield and Aston Lodge will also be axed. These services are used by Families for days out and shopping purposes. the elderly use these also for shopping purposes and to socialise, and many people use these services to travel to and from work. As taxis can be costly many people will lose out; The elderly may become more lonely as for a lot of people it's the only time they get out and see people, families will not be able to take trips into Hanley to visit the beautiful parks etc. and people may be forced to give up their employment. Also the people that use the services to go to the markets and supermarkets would have to use the smaller shops in their area which don't always stock everything they need and can prove more costly. please support us by signing this petition and help stop the cuts the bus companies are making to our dwindling public transport.

Cars speed through the village and there have been many close missing at zebra crossing near the school Many children walk to school as it serves the village, this involves many children crossing the main road through the village There is an alternative faster route for drivers that do not need access to the school. There is flats for the elderly next to the main road, and two locations along the road Many children cycle through the village to access Brockington High School. At the village boundary there is access to a cycle path, the only road they travel on is through the village. Reducing speed would encourage more people to access the cycle route that leads to local facilities

Recently I saw a news item where a person was injured in a car park.In large car parks you could have to walk a considerable distance dodging cars to rech a safe area.

To keep our street residents and children safe

Traffic flows much more freely, even with the roadworks and barriers in place. This is a busy and major Road/Junction and the roundabout is enabling the movement of vehicles in a much more efficient manor.

To keep cyclist safe

As head of National Rail, he has presided over a period of extreme frustration and utter chaos among the majority of users of the national rail network. Not only has this lead to personal exasperation, but it also severly damages the credibility of the rail system.

Our children should have a safe route to access their secondary school. Blaby district council see the current Road as safe for our children to walk or cycle down during busy periods. What will it take for this to change? death of a child? This not only saves parents pockets, this also heightens our childrens health as they have a more active lifestyle of getting to and from school. Walking down a grass verge is not safe. A footpath needs to be implemented.

Residential parking is increasingly becoming unavailable and unmanageable along Gooder Lane and the surrounding residential streets due to a lack of parking facilities at Brighouse train station. Rastrick has a high density of residential properties, which already makes the possibilty of parking limited. The lack of parking facilities at Brighouse train station means that rail commuters are having to find parking elsewhere, namely on neighbouring residential streets, making residents unable to park anywhere near their own home. As Rastrick & Brighouse Councillors, we have lobbyed the Council for a number of years to look, in partnership with the other stakeholders (e.g. WY Combined Authority), at this situation, to no avail. The situation needs an holistic approach exploring all veasible options and solutions to avoid displacing the problem on to other streets in the area. However, simply put, we need more parking facilities at Brighouse Train Station. Gooder Lane is a regularly used highway by residents, railway users, businesses (both shops and industrial companies), HGVs, and day to day commuters. This road, and many of the 'offshoot' residential streets (Bridge End in particular) are very poorly maintained, and have been for years, meaning that many drivers avoid using this road and instead use another route which causes congestion on other main roads. These roads need to be properly assessed and dressed. As Councillors, we are continually told that assessments will take place but, to date, none have taken place and no action has been taken to address this problem.
