Oppose the Sale of Carr Road (funfair site) Nelson
We demand the site be retained in public ownership and classified for lesiure/recreation use! There has been a motion put forward to Nelson Area Committee to declare our public land surplus and to dispose of it. This is public recreation grounds for use by the public and a large part of all of our histories, with many of us having very fond memories of visiting the yearly travelling fair and circus at the site who still come to entertain our children and grandchildren. Please dont take this away

SAVE SMOKERS CORNER
Recently there have been issues surrounding the use of Hartfield Avenue during break and lunch times as the popular social space of "Smokers Corner". It is a tradition associated with Cotham that Hartfield Avenue is the smoking area associated with the Sixth Form centre. It is impossible for students to smoke anywhere else as there is no designated smoking area and an overall lack of outdoor space. This is a petition to show support in the use of Hartfield Avenue as "Smokers Corner"to continue a

Play Sunlight by Nicky Byrne on Irish radio
Nicky Byrne is representing Ireland at this years Eurovision in Sweden with his song "Sunlight" the song for whatever reason has received very little AirPlay.

Petition for the respect of the human rights
I want to draw to your attention to a big error made recently by the Romanian autorities by putting the refugee and yoga teacher, Gregorian Bivolaru, on Europol's "Most Wanted" list, under false and illegal accusations (namely "sexual exploitation of children” and "infantile pornography” - reasons for which he has never been convicted). This huge lie and abuse led to Mr. Bivolaru being arrested in Paris on the 26th February 2016. In keeping with his status of political refugee in Sweden and ho

For this reason, and also to send a message to the American government, I vow
