The area outside Gingeros coffee is a very popular place with visitors and locals to be able to sit and chat while having a coffee watching the dolphins in the bay. The removal of the seats would have a detrimental effect on the tourism industry as tourists would find elsewhere to visit and locals would not have a communal area to sit and meet for a chat and coffee which could impact their mental health. We need the tourists and locals to get involved in order to save this much needed area in the village.

I have experienced, in someone I know very well, the helplessness of a young Boro fan suffering from the uncontrollable need to gamble, accompanied by the guilt, the shame, the increasing debts, and the deep depression that gambling addiction causes. Ex-Boro star Paul Merson said “gambling addiction is a baffling, cunning, hideous disease that gets hold of you. Gambling addicts think they are bad people but they’re not, they’re ill people who need to get well.” I have read the research about how the rational part of the gambler’s brain is overcome in a microsecond and the chilling facts about the gambling industry spending £1.5 billion a year on advertising, and that the industry makes 86% of online profit from 5% of gamblers – those suffering from gambling addiction, some of whom will be Boro fans. The recent fine of £17 million for Entain (the firm that owns Ladbrokes and Coral) over its multiple failings and inaction to do necessary affordability checks is only one example of how gambling operators exploit their customers. Boro must have nothing to do with such an industry. We need to stand together to demand that Boro has nothing to do with an industry that encourages addiction. Boro football is too good to be making money out of products that cause mental illness. This petition is not against gambling, nor the choice of Boro supporters to choose to gamble but, since gambling addiction is recognized as an illness in the way that nicotine addiction is, we need to kick gambling adverts out of Boro football in the same way as we have kicked cigarette adverts out of sports years ago. In the words of one of our Boro songs that I have adapted: “We’re the red army from Middlesbrough And we stand and sing, Kick gambling adverts out of Boro footy, You are my Boro, my only Boro. Kick gambling adverts out of Boro, You’ll make me happy When skies are grey.”

On Wednesday 27 July at around 10pm an eight-year-old cocker spaniel named Lucky was taken from her garden in Ouston, near Chester-le-Street, County Durham. Some hours later the much-loved family pet was found with more than 70% burns to her body in the village of Lanchester, about 10 miles away from her home. She was rushed to a local vet before being transferred to a veterinary specialist. Harrowing photographs showed Lucky with a burnt pink nose, a blistered ear and a red eye, and her paws covered in bandages. Due to the extent of her injuries and poor prognosis for survival, her heartbroken owner - a woman in her mid-50s - had to make the difficult decision to have her pet put to sleep. Five suspects were quickly identified and questioned by police. They have been released under investigation. A month on, there is growing concern that no one will ever be prosecuted for Lucky's death. It has been widely reported that the attack on Lucky was an act of revenge by a group of men with a grudge against members of her family following a 'war of words' on social media. By directing their anger at a defenceless and innocent animal whose only crime was to be owned by an 'enemy', we believe that these so-called gangsters have crossed a boundary, however. If unpunished for this, they will undoubtedly feel empowered to commit more violent crime, racking up more and more victims. A CLIMATE OF FEAR Lucky's callous killing has repulsed and outraged right-thinking members of the local and wider County Durham community. There is, however, a reluctance to come forward with information due to fear of retribution. Witnesses are effectively being intimidated or even terrorised into silence by a handful of dangerous offenders. This is inexcusable in a civilised society. OUR EXPECTATIONS The purpose of this petition is to ask the Durham PCC to ensure that every effort is made to bring Lucky's killers to justice especially as there is a wider issue at play here. It's time to send violent criminals a message that their behaviour will not be tolerated and that they will be prosecuted and punished for their wrong-doings. At the same time, the wider community needs reassurance that they will be protected from retaliation when they speak up. Durham Constabulary have clamped down hard on the criminal fraternity in the past and that tactic has proved very effective both in terms of criminal justice and in bolstering public confidence. We would like to see that approach revisited now. Lucky the dog was the innocent victim of an act of pure unmitigated evil by a group of men with a grudge. Anyone capable of that level of senseless cruelty will be a danger to everyone. By signing this petition, you will send a clear message to Durham Constabulary that you want her killers prosecuted and put behind bars. Monsters like these need to be off the streets.

Penrith residents have suffered the odour nuisance the Penrith 'pong' far too long. We want it to end. We want to be able to open our windows, breathe fresh air, lead normal (odourless free) lives !

The Oxfordshire local government pension scheme which, provides pensions for over 66,000 public sector workers in the county, has investments in fossil fuel companies including over £20m in Shell despite the county council having declared a Climate Emergency back in 2019. Scientists tell us that to avoid extreme disasters, the majority of known reserves need to stay in the ground. Yet these companies are investing in new fossil fuel exploration and development projects which jeopardize any chance that global heating will be limited to 1.5°C, threatening everyone's security and livelihood. Divestment sends a clear message to the fossil fuel sector and removes any social license to continue their dangerous business plans.

OMEGA WORKS WAREHOUSE COMMUNITY IS UNDER THREAT AND WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT! Haringey Warehouse District, also known locally as Manor House Warehouses, is a former industrial site in South Tottenham that has, over the past 20 years, been converted into live and work spaces by artists, makers, performers and alternative community advocates. Hundreds of residents are drawn here because of the cohesive community living, affordable housing, creative space and opportunity for collaboration. These warehouse spaces have been steadily transformed by the creative inhabitants, becoming unique art spaces that host community events and have, for the last two decades, become an iconic fixture in London and unique in the world. We live and work in Omega Works, one of the main warehouse complexes on Hermitage Road, N4. The site has a rich and interesting history; from its birth as a piano factory in the 1930s, which built (at one point) the largest piano on Earth!, these warehouse spaces are now home to a thriving community of over 100+ residents and businesses. Here, we look after each other; our neighbourhood relationships are incredibly strong and provide a support network for a diverse group of under-represented and under-resourced people to cohabitate, collaborate and create real community. At Omega, there is always someone you can ‘borrow a cup of sugar’ from. We also contribute back to the local economy and rich cultural history of the area; in our spaces we host accessible gigs, workshops and exhibitions, fundraise for charity, and hold activist meetings for social justice issues. Omega is home to a screen printing business, a martial arts school, a kitchen, a photography studio, and SNAP! recording studio, whose clients include icons such as Kate Bush, Stormzy and Coldplay. The connections Omega Works nurtures among its inhabitants and into the area beyond are innumerable, and we contribute so much to the cultural offering to Haringey and North London as a whole. Our home, Omega Works, has now been targeted for redevelopment. The proposed plan would see the existing structure demolished to make way for new build flats. This would mean that everyone who lives and works here will lose their homes and livelihoods, and cause the extinction of a vibrant, diverse and close knit community. Not only would these new builds put considerable strain on the existing residential infrastructure and services of the area, but these new flats are will see a minimum 25% increase in rent, meaning that the displaced creatives and businesses will be priced out and completely lost from the area. If we let these spaces be destroyed, they will be lost forever, and with them the incredible value they contribute to the local economy, cultural history, and community of London. We want to STOP THIS DEVELOPMENT! We want to protect our community and way of life from extinction, and have the Haringey Warehouse Community recognised as a site unique to not only Haringey, but to London and the world. Please lend your support to SAVE THE WAREHOUSES, and help to keep North London’s creative ecology growing and thriving.

To end discrimination for Motorhomers, most of whom have facilities on board that enable them to be self-sufficient. We pay more in road taxes yet increasingly are banned from parking, even for day time stop offs.

Trevalga is a living piece of our shared history, a medieval parish largely unchanged. The sale risks that being lost, as well as many people being made homeless during a housing crisis and a community being torn apart. The Gerald Curgenven Will Trust may be small however it should operate to the same standards as all UK charities, and there are serious concerns about how this Will Trust, and the Manor of Trevalga, have been managed.

The negative health consequences of high air pollution are well documented and the current draft plan will not address this significant problem. The interventions needed to achieve this in our city are clear. Our goals should be in line with WHO guidelines and that of London boroughs of 10 ug/m (NO2). The rolling out of an extended ULEZ (Ultra-Low Emissions zone), the bus only ULEZ, Zero Emission Zones and a Smoke Control Area all need to be implemented immediately. We need solutions that encourage less through traffic, while encouraging pedestrian and cycle access alongside long-term plans for a zero emissions transport network. We need clear interim targets for every year of the action plan to ensure that we do not continue to fail at the implementation of this ambitious but necessary plan. Pollution levels in our city have been illegally high for too many years. There are many interventions available to B&H to tackle air pollution but the current draft is vague on these actions and omits many significant opportunities. The failure to create a robust and enforceable plan risks the continuation of the associated health harm, suffering and death that the large body of scientific evidence shows is already occurring in the city.

We understand that the council will consider this and that one of the requirements to make that change happen is for their to be evidence that residents want to see it happen.

These types of releases are becoming ever more popular, but have devastating consequences for wildlife. Celebrations of a life should not come at the expense of harming those of another! Please join us by signing and sharing this petition widely, thank you.
