No two schools are alike. But the government doesn't seem to agree. It wants to rush through plans to force every single school in England to become an academy the type of school paid for by taxpayers, but run by businesses, sponsors or trusts. Many teachers and parents are already standing against the plans, saying that they're "a step towards privatisation", ignore local views, and could force some schools to close. One size does not fit all, and local parents and teachers should have a say in the future of our school. ------ If this isn't your local school, click here to sign your local petition, or start one if no-one else has yet: https://secure.38degrees.org.uk/start-a-campaign-for-your-school

Friar Gate bridge is currently very dark at night despite being on one of the main arteries into the city, this poses a safety risk to all who use this road at that time. Illuminating Friar Gate Bridge at night time will reduce crime, improve public safety for pedestrians and road traffic especially in winter months, it will also give better definition to a historic Derby landmark and give more prominence to a gateway into Derby, this will increase the amount of private sector investment. The capital cost of installing the system will be low as it can tap into existing nearby streetlights and the operational cost would be very low due to the low power consumption and virtually non-existent maintenance costs. The scheme would therefore by a low-cost but high gain project.

Germany has a very different outlook on money matters from this country. If we are to keep control of our own traditional London Stock Exchange it can not have a man in charge and a second in command both from the German Stock Exchange. To be a part of bringing a historical and proud tradition to an end by doing nothing, merely to please big business, is not the way I want to be remembered.

40,000 jobs+ are at stake. The wellbeing of families in Port Talbot, Rotherham, Corby, and Shotton is at steak. Wales and the North have already suffered with the closures of the coal mines. Unemployment brings misery, poverty and low self esteem which can lead to mental and physical illness. I live in Devon but my family comes from South Wales. Let's all support each other no matter where we live!

Currently complementary therapies are available to those suffering from life threatening and terminal illnesses and their carer's. It must be a retrograde step to deny support in any form to anyone coping with difficult health issues. NICE would like to exclude in 2018 this care. As a person who has had cancer I can assure everyone that the complementary therapies I received helped enormously. Surely people deserve treatments that benefit their well being in their hour of need. So please sign to let NICE know that we do not want complementary therapies to be downgraded.

Iraqi lives are just as important as those in western countries. Showing this would be a decent first step towards recognising this.
