Expanding Heathrow Airport with a third runway would be catastrophic for our environment and would put the UK in breach of its legally binding carbon budget to keep the Government on track to meet its 2050 net zero emissions target.  And it could see ticket prices go up by £40 per flight, across the board. So it's bad for the environment - and bad for pockets too. Sign the petition today and tell the Government to drop these plans.

1. A Safe Space for Children • It provides a safe and welcoming environment for kids to play, learn, and build friendships. • Without it, families lose access to affordable, local resources for after-school activities and community events. 2. A Hub for the Neighbourhood • The Centre brings people together, strengthening bonds between neighbours and fostering a sense of belonging. • It supports local initiatives, events, and activities that benefit everyone, from children to seniors. 3. Protecting Our Heritage • The Soanes Centre is home to a historical graveyard, preserving a vital piece of Tower Hamlets' history. • Losing the Centre means neglecting an irreplaceable cultural landmark tied to the area's identity.

This petition has been started by Keep Cornwall Carpeted, a campaign working with food banks and communities across Cornwall affected by the issue. When social housing tenants move into their home they are often instantly faced with the big cost of carpeting their homes which often leaves them without enough money to afford the essentials, go into debt and need support from food banks" It is time for a Cornwall-wide response to the outdated national Decent Home Standard policy, and to ensure that homes in our communities without carpets are a thing of the past. We believe that in 2025 no social housing properties in Cornwall should be let without sufficient carpets and floorcoverings in the home. We are calling on Councillor Olly Monk, as portfolio holder for Planning and Housing, to ensure that no social housing in Cornwall is let without flooring. We want the Councillor to work with Cornwall Housing and other registered providers of social housing in Cornwall to guarantee that properties will have sufficient carpets and floor coverings before a new tenant moves in.

It is vital to stand against hate and division to protect the values of equality, democracy, and human dignity. Last summer’s hate riots in the UK, partly fuelled by right-wing misinformation supported by Elon Musk and other commentators on X, demonstrate the real-world dangers of enabling extremist narratives. Failing to condemn Musk’s gesture dishonours the millions who died at the hands of the Nazis and the brave individuals, including Americans, who gave their lives to defeat them. By joining this campaign, we can demand accountability for high-profile figures who spread division and ensure the UK takes a firm stand against the rise of dangerous ideologies.

  • Justice for Victims: The bonuses were awarded during years when sub-postmasters faced wrongful accusations, prosecutions, and personal ruin. Returning these bonuses would be a step towards acknowledging the immense harm caused. • Moral Accountability: By delaying and covering up the Horizon system's issues, Vennells concealed liabilities that would have significantly affected the Post Office's financial health, thereby enabling her to receive bonuses under false pretenses. Returning these bonuses would reflect genuine remorse and accountability for her part in one of the UK's largest corporate scandals. • Setting Precedents: This action would set a powerful precedent for corporate accountability, ensuring that executives cannot profit from systemic failures, conceal liabilities, and escape the consequences of their actions. 

Maryon Wilson Park is on Thorntree Road Charlton, London, situated nearby to Maryon Park. The animal care centre is hugely popular with both locals and visitors to the area. It's an oasis of calm in a bustling area and should be saved for all. Greenwich Council are seeking to offload the responsibility and costs of the animal centre in their budget cuts. Our petition aim is to convince the council that this is a mistake and is totally against the wishes of the local electorate. It is irresponsible of the council to expect the local community to provide a business case to run this service. The park is for all residents and benefits the community in supporting mental health and wellbeing, social cohesion, kindness and understanding.  It's highly educational and well used by schools and pre-school families.   The park serves many local schools and people travel from far & wide to visit. It is one of the distinguishing and defining features of the area - it's loss would be far-reaching, detrimental to the area and community. • The animal park is located in Maryon Wilson Park, which also includes woodlands, grasslands, and streams • The park is home to domestic animals like sheep, goats, pigs, chickens, geese, horses and ducks • The park offers free public tours where visitors can feed, stroke, and handle the animals • For the last 50 years the Charlton Park Riding for Disabled ponies have been stabled there, a fantastic charity supporting children with disabilities and their families • Maryon Wilson Park is a key feature of the Green Chain Walk, used by over 250,000 ramblers every year The park offers an unique opportunity for the whole community to connect with nature and experience animals up close. A treasured green space in a rapidly developing area, this park offers respite, comfort and joy to those who most need it. It teaches kindness, empathy and connection in a world that is becoming increasingly less so. This is a hub of wellbeing for young and old, no matter what your income.  We need to show the council that this park is loved and valued by residents in and out of the borough, so we ask that you write an email or letter to your Ward Councillors, copy in the Mayor of Greenwich, the executive lead of Greenwich Council and our MP, Matthew Pennycook.  A short email to all of them on what the park means to you will really help this campaign.  Find your ward councillor here: https://www.royalgreenwich.gov.uk/info/200155/councillors_and_elected_officials/598/find_your_councillor [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Thanks so much from all of the residents of Charlton for supporting this campaign.  Save the Animal Park (SOAP)!

Bristol has over 22,000 households on the social housing waiting list. Selling existing ones and not building the new council housing Bristol needs will only mean the waiting list bigger and have people waiting for longer. We are in a housing crisis – the council needs to act like it. By law, the council can only invest council tenants’ rent into improving our homes or building new ones. Selling council housing and refusing to build the council homes Bristol needs means less money for repairs and improvements, more people on the housing waiting list waiting for longer, and higher temporary accommodation bills for the taxpayer.

The current 7-year route to settlement for children born in the UK is unnecessarily long and places a significant burden on families. Children born in the UK often grow up with a strong sense of belonging to British society. However, they face prolonged uncertainty, which can harm their emotional well-being, disrupt their education, and delay their ability to fully participate in society.   Reducing this period to three years would allow children to achieve stability sooner, providing them with a secure foundation to grow, learn, and thrive. It ensures their rights and best interests are prioritized, reflecting the values of fairness and compassion that underpin British society.   This issue affects not just the children and families directly involved, but also the broader community. When children are given the opportunity to integrate fully and early, it benefits society as a whole. By supporting this change, you are:   1. Promoting Equality: Every child born in the UK deserves the same opportunity to feel secure and included.   2. Strengthening Families: Families facing immigration challenges often experience stress and financial hardship, which can impact their ability to contribute to society.   3. Building a Better Future: Supporting children’s well-being and integration strengthens communities and creates a more cohesive and compassionate society.   By joining this campaign, you are standing up for fairness, family unity, and the well-being of the next generation. Together, we can push for a more just and inclusive policy that benefits everyone.

This is the second time in just over two years that the Council has proposed to close the school and is stating budget constraints and low numbers of 4 and 5 year olds in the area as its reason for its actions. This is not acceptable and will have a devastating impact for our school community. Queensway Primary School has more than 50% of children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), a group that requires significant support. A recent parliamentary report highlights inadequacies in SEND provision on a national scale. Leeds is not an exception and the Council is currently asking both its primary and secondary schools to express interest in opening their own onsite provisions that the Council can utilise. Closing Queensway would exacerbate this problem, displacing these vulnerable children and forcing them to travel out of area for the support they currently receive locally – support that is already in short supply. Transporting these children to other areas not only incurs additional costs but also disrupts their education and wellbeing. This closure merely shifts the financial burden rather than addressing the root issues, making it a shortsighted solution. A recent OFSTED inspection (about to be published) has shown that Queensway has made incredible strides since the first closure consultation in 2022 – which it successfully fought and saw the Council say it wouldn’t put the School through this again. We wholeheartedly believe that Queensway Primary School effectively meets the needs of its students, particularly those with SEND. The Council should develop a comprehensive plan to fund SEND provisions citywide, rather than focusing on the closure of one school, which would have significant negative impact on the local community. We urge Leeds City Council to take immediate action to prevent this closure and ensure the continued support and education of the children at Queensway.

Libraries provide a crucial service to the city, not least for the worst-off. Our valued community spaces need to be protected and invested in. Libraries need more investment, not less.

It is a sustainable cheap meal for the working people of the united kingdom this entails that people of the country can be sustained on a low budget as well as young school kids who rely on that meal to survive I hope that the supermarkets of the united kingdom take this into consideration.
