The UK right now is in the midsts of a huge housing crisis. Many people are struggling with rising rent and cannot afford to buy. Housing being built is currently not keeping up with demand and one of the reasons for this is the Government going back on a promise they made to fix the crisis. When elected, the current Government promised they would have a set target to help tackle the problem to help people get onto the property ladder but those targets have now been scrapped. The impact of this decision is now becoming increasingly clear as the housing crisis does not seem to be slowing down. We need to show the Government that not tackling the housing crisis and building more housing is unpopular

Please help to keep this centre open! With our reduced bus service and many public services under threat, we need local facilities available for local people!

By selling a part of their land in Buckinghamshire to house 975 homes they hope to raise £100 million which would be invested in cutting-edge research that would transform the diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy. Please sign our petition today and give people with epilepsy, hope.

This is important to all the familys, friends and loved ones who have people laid to rest here. We are now fighting to get this decision over turned, as there are many big family's and friends who go to see loved ones at this Cemetery. Sadly 2 pots just wouldn't be enough, again, people will be left heartbroken that they can not lay anything to show their love, respect and loved ones grave/resting place. Also as may will know, with weather conditions, flowers it just wouldn't last very long at all, so you can understand why people want to place more sentimental gifts down. To make these graves beautiful and stand out, especially the childrens graves, family's to lay there favorite toys/items, to show the resting place is a child's place, as children don't understand the meaning of flower's. Let alone weather conditions making them not last, but wild rabbit's eating them. We do understand not wanting items on the grass, or where maintance work needs to take place, but we could agree items can be placed near the head stones and memorial benches, as long as not out the borders of the loved ones grave/resting place itself. However, we want Stychbrook Cemetery to agree to allow family's, friend's, also loved ones to consider special events such as birthday's and Christmas so family's, friends, also loved ones can put balloons, mini Christmas trees, wreaths and other gifts to celebrate these special events, upon agreement they are removed after the season has passed. We also want Stychbrook Cemetery to consider letting the childrens graves stand out with lights, toys, beautiful decorations to show a young person was laid to rest here, and are loved but also missed dearly let there favorite items stay, to show who they was and what they loved. We also would like Stychbrook Cemetery to agree to close the gates/lock them, at a reasonable time, to prevent the sentermental items/gifts being stolen, plus graves being vandilised, but also prevents stolen items being dumped in the woodland area causing harm to nature but also wild life, this will also prevent causing anymore distress and heartbreak to the people who's items was taken and damaged. Why we have asked them to consider alot, we believe the parking should also be reconsidered due to the fact elderly, people with disabilitys including hidden ones who struggle to walk so far, as it is a bumpy and long walk to the graves towards the bottom, as long as cars don't drive on the grass, or cause damage to anything on site, this should be allowed. We are strongly reaching out to the community, government and more, to help over turn this devestating decision, this beautiful Cemetery has come to. All we are asking, is for a moment of your time to please sign and share, to help us stop this change, but also to allow family's friend's and loved ones to continue to place sentimental items. Please don't let this Cemetery turn in to a bare faced place of rest where people want to be able to pay respects, but also spend there time in there own ways with there gifts/items. So let's keep this Cemetery bright, open and beautiful for all. Since after the agreement of the owners at the cemetery placed these actions against the communitys of Staffordshire/west midlands, it not just caused such devistation to the people who brought plots for there loved ones that gained the exclusive rights documentations to have the rights to place there sentimental items such as flowers, and personal items to that person, it may cause spirituality to become distressed due to the actions of the owners itself. Thank you for your Support!

As a person who has had their drink spiked in the past, I would have felt a lot more comfortable reporting the incident if I knew there was a specific law protecting me. The Government's failure to introduce a new law lets women down. Please sign my petition to put pressure on the Home Office to reverse their decision!

It's important to all the friends, family and loved ones who are buried on the cemetary, to be able to put more than just 2 pots of flowers down, due to the fact there are much larger families out there in the communities and friends, and 2 pots near a headstone would clearly not be enough space for all the families/ loved ones, to make their true respects to their loved ones who passed away. Flowers die off quite quickly due to weather conditions, and people find more sentimental items to gift on their loved ones graves to pay their dues and respects, which will last much longer and make graves look more tidier and more approachable, showing that their loved ones are been thought about each day. We can understand and respect the decision of the cemetary of not wanting items on the grass areas, due to the maintenance having the need to do their work round the graves, to make the cemetary look a nice and welcoming place to go too, so we believe they should over turn their decision and agree families and friends/ loved ones, of the loved ones who are buried within the cemetary, to put items on the graves that truly would be sentimental pieces, that's part of the family and the loved ones itself passed away. This includes statues/ ornaments/ lights/ photos/ children's toys on young people's graves. We believe upon agreement upon this being allowed, must be placed near head stones/ memorial benches where its concrete and on their graves as a whole, not leaving the outside boundaries, and that on special occasions items such as birthdays and Christmas such as balloons/ small Christmas trees/ lights/ fake candles/ wreathes, should be placed upon the graves, on agreement they should be removed when the season finishes. We believe they should especially think about the decision, with children that are buried also, as families like to show that their loved child is buried in that specific plot of land. They should be able to decorate with children's items and fairy lights, due to making this show a precious child was laid to rest in that place, and when a child passes away so young, more sentimental items such as a favourite toy, should be placed upon those graves instead of flowers which a sad passing wouldn't of known what they were for. We also believe that the gates to Stychbrook Cemetary should be closed and locked at a responsible time, to make sure no items that all the items that are laid on the graves are stolen and dumped in the woodland areas surrounded the cemetary, as this will prevent heart breaking upsets to the families and loved ones to the very people of the items that were stolen previous, and will stop harm coming to the wildlife when items are dumped in the woodlands area. We hope that people/ our communities will be able to support this petition and sign, to get the cemetary to over turn their heart breaking decision, which have literally destroyed families/ loved ones hearts and also those who are clearly buried on the land to Stychbrook cemetary who clearly loved the company, love, respect of everything the families and loved ones have done, within making the cemetary look as nice as it was, until the people of the cemetary made the decision to strip the cemetary appart just as the communities hearts.

The Windrush scandal continues to cause pain and suffering to Black people across the country. As we approach the 75th anniversary of the arrival of the Empire Windrush, which should be a time of celebration, Black people are again facing a hostile government. Reports that ministers’ promises to implement key recommendations from the Independent review into the scandal look set to be ditched, will come as yet another devastating blow to the Windrush generation. As Home Secretary, you have the opportunity to show that the Government is serious about righting past wrongs by honouring the recommendations set out in the independent Williams report. To do anything less sends out the clear message that the suffering of the Windrush generation was in vain and that the hostile environment still exists.

To ensure Victims and survivors of sexual trauma are protected during the Court process. But also to dispel prevalent rape myths throughout our society that good character means someone is not capable of rape. Allowing Good Character references during Rape trials is re-traumatising & unnecessary in proving someone is not a rapist. Good character tells us nothing about whether someone had consent, or had reasonable belief they had consent. Sexual assault, is when a sexual act takes place in the absence of CONSENT. Not the absence of good character. The continuation of this evidence by the Judiciary which is at the top of our society, perpetuates the harmful & dangerous rape myth that if someone has a 'good character' this may be considered as evidence they have not committed the act of rape. We feel this is a huge omission of the key recommendations from the Gillen Review 2019. These dangerous myths have only been further emphasised by remarks made by Judge Brian Sherrard KC during a trial in Dunnganon Crown Court, which has caused outrage across NI. Not least the "character reference" which was also given by a priest. One of the key recommendations at point 4 within the Gillen Review, stresses the need for measures to be introduced at the outset of the trial to combat rape myths. We feel by continuing to allow such evidence, does the exact opposite. We call for immediate action from the Assembly to ensure Victims and survivors of sexual trauma are protected during the Court process. But also to dispel harmful rape myths throughout our society that good character means someone is not capable of rape- THIS IS NOT TRUE!!

I have lived with mould in my flat since I moved in. It seeped through the roof into my bedroom meaning I’ve not been able to use the top of my wardrobe for fear of my clothes getting damp and ruined. I managed to speak to the previous tenant and he had experienced the same problem. The landlord and letting agents consistently denied the mould was because of a fault to the property. The source of the mould was condensation from the roof tiles caused by a lack of proper, basic insulation. Since the tragic death of Awaab Ishak was confirmed to be due to prolonged exposure to mould a few months ago [1] renters like me have felt more anxious than ever about the potential consequences of mould harming our health. 11% of private rented homes have some form of damp (including mould) in them according to the 2022 English Housing Survey. [2] Thousands of renters have to live with the threat of mould ruining their home but also ruining their lives. According to a Survation poll, 37% of private renters experienced damp and mould in the previous 5 years. [3] Many things cause mould, including leaks, rising damp and poor insulation, but too often landlords dismiss complaints and blame tenants. Renters shouldn’t have to pay for the negligence of landlords and the Housing Secretary Michael Gove wants to change the system [4] It’s currently not possible to get legal aid for compensation for disrepair: whether for the inconvenience of living in those conditions or if your health has been damaged by your landlord’s actions. And when tenants can get legal support, proposed changes this year to cap legal fees that negligent landlords have to pay will discourage lawyers from taking on complicated housing cases – as problems with mould usually are. It is only right that renters be able to sue their landlords for damaging their health when they have failed to repair the homes they are making money from. By extending legal aid to cover damages claims and exempting housing cases from the new legal fee rules, the government would make it easier for renters to take action. If failure to keep homes in good condition is more likely to result in legal action, then landlords will respond more quickly to complaints and make sure their properties are safe to live in in the first place. So please sign this petition today so that we can tell the Justice Secretary that renters deserve to live in homes that don’t threaten their health and that landlords have to be held accountable.

The more people that show support will let the government know that they would prefer to save there pets and all animals and people from the stress of bangs from the fireworks. Plus in the long run it would also save the government money in investing in drone and light shows.

With the cost of living crisis affecting everyone across the city, it has never been more important for these charges to within reach of people's budget. This is the very opposite of what people need in this time of severe inflation.

The LSE has researched that "non-domiciled residents in the UK (‘non-doms’) receive at least £10.9 billion in offshore income and capital gains each year, which they are not required to report to HMRC or pay tax on in the UK. Taxing this income would raise more than £3.2 billion in additional tax revenue each year and also remove the current disincentive to invest in the UK." The magic money might not exist but there is income that should be taxed and can help the crumbling public services in the UK.
