• Better Saturday bus services for Warrenpoint
    On Saturdays the Number 39 bus between Warrenpoint and Newry runs only every two hours. What should be a vital transport link becomes a barrier to work, shopping, visiting friends and relatives, attending events, and connecting with rail and bus services from Newry to Belfast, Dublin and elsewhere. Public transport is particularly important for younger people, older people, those on lower incomes, and anyone without access to a car. For many people, the bus is not a convenience but a necessity. We call on Translink to: • Review the Saturday Number 39 service between Warrenpoint and Newry and introduce an hourly daytime service. • Remove unnecessary barriers to bus use, including peak-time fares on Saturday morning services and improve  Warrenpoint-Newry amd onward rail and bus services  While this petition focuses on Warrenpoint, the Number 39 route also serves Rostrevor and Kilkeel. Better Saturday services would improve access to jobs, services, leisure opportunities and visitor destinations across South Down, including Kilbroney Park.

  • Harsher penalties for water pollution
    Simple answer is, this is our drinking water! This is our environment!  We are practically living in open sewers!  Our wastewater infrastructure need massive investment to bring them up to scratch!  Stop the bonuses of CEO and managements would be a start! Cap salaries and stop so called expense, the government will soon notice there is more money available towards upgrading the water works than they think. . Too many screaming off the crop with public money

  • Protect Northern Ireland’s AONBs No More Wind Farms in Protected Landscapes
    Northern Ireland’s AONBs are being sacrificed to industrial wind farms. If we don’t act, the landscapes we love—our peatlands, wildlife, and heritage—will be lost forever to short-term interests and irreversible damage. If you care about nature, climate justice, and democracy, this affects you. Together we can demand real protection for AONBs, a fairer energy future, and stop developers from deciding the fate of our most precious places.

  • Save The Bats - Stop McDonald’s Magherafelt Construction
    The developer must halt the construction immediately to safeguard our natural heritage and comply with the legal obligations set forth to protect endangered species. This restaurant will cause massive environmental damage if opened.

  • Cruelty to our fellow animals
    This issue is important because it reflects badly on society  If people torture animals it is almost inevitable they will do the same to humans many studies have shown this to be the case

  • Inquiry into care home deaths in Northern Ireland
    "If these deaths had happened in a children's home I think there would have been an investigation a long time ago, but because it's the elderly it just seems to be pushed to the side" Hundreds of care home residents died across Northern Ireland during the first wave of the pandemic. Each of them was valuable, and are grieved by their loved ones. The Department for Health's report in 2020 did not accept there was a link between these deaths and the discharge of patients from hospitals without Covid testing.

  • Save Magherally, stop the quarry expansion.
    Homes, heritage and health is at risk in Magherally and the surrounding Banbridge area. If the quarry is allowed to expand local wildlife’s habitat will be destroyed and local residents will have their right to peaceful enjoyment of their homes striped from them. Once the beautiful countryside in Magherally is gone, we can never get it back. Respiratory problems could worsen, silica dust is carcinogenic and could lead to increased health concerns. Noise and dust pollution will increase. Badgers, bats, foxes, yellowhammers and Irish hares will be out at risk. No amount of economical gain is worth putting lives, wildlife and heritage at risk.
