People rely on their phone connections and internet. For some people who work from home, they need to get online to earn money to get by. For carers and people for whom it's hard to get around, being connected is a lifeline. TalkTalk lures people in by promising high speeds and low costs. But in practice they deliver poor service. When things go wrong, they have a bad track record of sorting problems out quickly, often leaving people disconnected for weeks at a time. TalkTalk need to improve fast, or be stopped from making promises they don't keep.

I feel this is important as people needed to be educated on the causes and effects of mental health issues as his could prevent people developing them. I have been personally affect by mental health issues and believe education could of prevented or reduced the severity of them. 1 in 10 children and young people aged 5 - 16 suffer from diagnosable mental health issues, this needs to change and I believe education can help change this. Having experienced the stigma and negative views of mental health issues I do not wish for anyone else to have to suffer it.

I feel this is important because it could save lives and encourage young people to join the medical profession.

This is our heritage and it is a public building Not some councillor's distorted idea that they are entrepreneurs.They are public servants

It would appear that ordinary high street solicitors are now charging upwards of £200 per hour for simple routine tasks like conveyancing, handling probate for a will. This can very soon eat up all of a modest estate where a person has left debts on their estate or a will is contested or the person dies intestate. This is an obscene amount to charge for routine work which is probably carried out by a paralegal or junior person at the company anyway. I see absolutely no reason for such astronomical fees which I believe should be curbed. £50 per hour is surely more than enough for anyone. A few years ago, in 2005 I successfully defended a claim against me in civil court. My solicitor, a junior, charged me in total around £40,000 at £160 per hour. Costs were not awarded by the court as the other party had secured legal aid. How can this be right? That £160 per hour in 2005 will now be....? I would suggest that legislation should be brought in to curb such excessive charging and the legal profession be made more accountable to the people.

If the government are talking abut huge companies using tax havens to evade paying their fair share why are we not talking about child maintenance evasion? This effects so many struggling parents. Even parents who are on benefits need to pay child maintenance, but affluent parents evade paying by 'starting up their own business'. On many occasions this is a tactical move and we need to protect our children by changing the 'no child maintenance' requirement for parents who have left their salaried job to start their own business and therefore have to pay ZERO. Mothers and fathers will understand this legal loophole in which they lawfully do not receive child maintenance from their child's non-resident parent. By starting up their own business and hiding their money in someone else's account (i.e their partners) and not putting their earnings through HMRC the Child Maintenace Service say they do not have to pay maintenance due to not having a taxable income or savings. The government need a different method of assessing maintenance to plug this hole. Our children's lives should be supported by both parents and if the non-resident parent does not morally believe they should then the government should legally require them to.

Palestine is a state recognised by the United Nations and by almost all countries, notably with the exception of countries of the North American continent and Australia. Google map products are widely-used across the world, almost to the point of exclusivity and as such have very significant influence and control of the way people of the world think. It is extremely important therefore that the products are unbiased and fairly represent the thinking of all peoples and states in the world. The removal of "Palestine" as a rendered label violates this and imposes a view held only by a small minority of countries. It is not appropriate for US corporate interests to dictate to the world in this way. We request the UK government act to urge the US government and Alphabet Inc. directly to correct this matter and re-instate the rendering of the label "Palestine" on Palestinian terrotories.

Palm oil production has destroyed vast areas of forest in countries including Indonesia, which is home to orangutans, the Rainforest foundation UK says palm oil companies are now planning to expand into the rainforests of the Congo basin in Africa, home to lowland gorillas and other threatened primates. Palm oil companies are also partly responsible for the recent devastating forest fires in Sumatra, which caused pollution episodes in Malaysia and Singapore.

The government may raise tax on solar in April 2017... unless enough people appeal. This would be a huge increase in the running costs of a rooftop solar installation that would affect both existing and new projects according to Solar Trade Association (STA). “In some cases, it would actually send installations into negative returns: you would be spending more on the system in tax and maintenance than you would be getting back from the sale of the power and the Feed-in Tariff support”, Paul Barwell, CEO of the STA commented. “We therefore need Ministers to step in as soon as possible”. Raising tax to such a crippling extent just over a year after the UK gov made a commitment to tackling climate change would drastically diminish our leadership in renewable energy generation at a time when the global mean temperature continues to rise. It would do this by discouraging 1000's of solar projects. It would be a hugely backward step by the UK in the midst of a collective global energy transition.

This race could undoubtedly bring the thousands of people far and wide to Hexham and Northumberland, benefiting businesses and creating profit to the area. The event can really put Hexham on the map!.

Until a few years ago people who could no longer clean their own home would be able to turn to their local Council and ask for one of the Council's team of home helps to be sent in. Without much discussion Councils have abandoned this policy leaving bewildered people who wonder where their help has gone.
