Free ASAP Rocky from Jail
Rapper ASAP Rocky has been arrested for suspicion of assault after getting into an altercation with two drug addicts who were provoking him and his crew, following them around and touching women without consent. Rocky was simply fighting him as self defence, but Swedish Police are viewing this an unwarranted attack. Rocky posted footage showing that he tried to keep the situation from escalating, proving his innocence. ASAP ROCKY IS INNOCENT! #FreeRocky

Stop the annual dolphin slaughter in Taiji
Every year between September and March, hundreds of dolphins are captured and killed in the most horrible way in Taiji, Japan. Twelve boats sail to the open sea almost every day to search for wild dolphins. A few kilometers from the coast, the dolphin hunters spread out to continue their search.

The hunters start striking with a hammer on a metal pole that is at

Road closure in Calton Avenue and surrounding streets
Since 2015 traffic on Calton Avenue has increased by 83% at morning peak and by 58% at 6pm-7pm. Our air quality is at dangerous levels.

Only removing the through traffic will resolve these issues so the Calton Avenue Residents Association are calling on the Council to take serious action. We call on the Council to implement a permeable road closure (allowing access by pedestrians and cyclists only) at one

STOP Ipswich Nude Bike Ride
On Saturday July 6th, an 8-mile nude bicycle ride will take place around Ipswich town centre. Ipswich Council has given permission for this to happen, and the Police have also been informed. We believe this level of nude exhibitionism - at a time and place where families and young children will be present - should absolutely NOT be allowed to happen. We're all in favour of exercise. We're all in favour of charitable endeavours and saving the environment. But we fail to see the relevance of the n
