ABORTION IS WRONG FOR MANY PEOPLE LIKE ME, LAURENCE GOFF, NEWARK UK

I am standing firm on conscientious objection to abortion for the last 40 years in the UK.

I very much oppose abortion, my  Catholic Faith  and a member of Holy Trinity RC Church Boundary Road, Newark, Nottinghamshire is right to protect the right of life of a Baby/Child to live it’s life to the full. I went  on a peaceful protest to London all day Wednesday 14th May 2008.

I  lobbed by leaving a message so Patrick Mercer MP for Newark will have our views by visiting Heather Millican from his office in London. I am happy to give my full support in the right to life and live my do my peaceful protest at Parliament my a mass lobbying last Wednesday 14th May 2008.

ALL ABORTIONS IS WRONG THIS BEING, MY PERSONAL RESONS
Abortion is unacceptable, I am not sorry to say, there are No circumstances in which I can change my personal thinking. 
Mother first feel their babies kicking at 16-18 weeks.
 Babies are well enough developed to feel pain at 18 weeks.
Ultrasound images show babies smiling and sucking their thumbs at 20 weeks.
I support the campaign to lower all abortions
Almost 3.000 babies are aborted betwwen 20 and 24 weeks every yeark in the UK. Only one in five are disabled. I am against it in the first place.
63% of MPs, two thirds of GPs, nearly two thirds of the public and more than three quarters of women support a reduction in the 24-weeks upper age limit. Babies like Millie McDonagh, born at 22 weeks,now stand a good chance of survival if they receive the good nenatal care.

How many abortions currently take place? 

 There are approximately 200,000 abortions in the UK every year – that’s not far off 600 every single day.

Claire Curtis-Thomas, a Labour MP and deputy chairwoman of the All-Party Parliamentary Pro-Life Group, said that it was beyond dispute that some babies survived at gestational ages below 24 weeks. “We all know that the viability of life at a very young age is very, very limited,” she said.

It’s something of an understatement to say that the by-election in Crewe and Nantwich on 22 May is an important one for us. 

 

 The Tories are working hard and David Cameron is urging voters here to “Send Mr Brown a message”.We’ve never needed your help more.

 

 

The Tories think they have it in the bag. But - as results last week in Slough, Oxford, Hastings and Ipswich show - when we work hard on the ground we win elections.That’s why I’ve set our (small) campaign team here a huge challenge - on Saturday and Sunday we want to deliver 20,000 leaflets and talk to 4000 voters.

We can’t do it without you.

If you can spare any time at all this weekend PLEASE come to Crewe and give us a few hours of your time. I promise it’ll be fun - there’s a great spirit here on the campaign because we know how important it is to show the Tories that we are still the right Party for the people of Crewe and Nantwich.

Turn up any time at our campaign HQ - 173-175 Nantwich Road, Crewe, CW2 6DF

We’ll be so pleased to see you.Anna Bunt
Agent, Crewe and Nantwich By-Election

LAURENCE GOFF

 Newark Constituency Labour Party Chairman 2008

 

Letter:
17 Apr : In his recent letter to the Post, Ron Bullock made some valid points in defending people’s rights to vote for their chosen party, and also the reasons he might vote for the BNP or UKIP at the next election.
Letter: Immigrant sense
8 Apr : In reply to Chris Crampton’s flawed response (Your Views, April 2) to my earlier correspondence: As Mr Crampton suggests, I did not say “there was one thing that unites us all as British.
Letter: Don’t vote BNP? How arrogant!
7 Apr : I found Bill Buchanan’s recent letter telling us not to vote BNP very arrogant indeed.
BNP festival bid for Amber Valley
3 Apr : The British National Party is applying to again stage its annual Red, White and Blue festival in Amber Valley this summer.
Letters: No such thing as single British culture
2 Apr : T Wood (Your Views, March 27) asserts that “People should not need to ask what it is to be British, it is there all around you, in our history, our past makes us what we are today”.
Guest columnist: Eric goodyer
28 Mar : Fred Jones’ imagination seems to stop at Dover; his name has Celtic roots so he is probably descended from the first well-documented British culture that gave way to Anglo-Saxon immigration in the 7th Century.
Letter:Typical
25 Mar : The letter from Bill Buchanan of Gedling (”We must resist the BNP bigots” Evening Post March 22) is typical of the orchestrated campaign to misrepresent the true nature and aims of the BNP, and of the increasing panic from the establishment political parties.
Letter: We must resist the BNP bigots
22 Mar : Some people may be thinking of voting for the BNP in future elections, but let them be warned of the dangerous and divisive nature of these bigots.
EG Comedy: Stewart Lee
21 Mar : While Stewart Lee is not really a household name, he has been on the fringes of fame for more than a decade.
Letter: Labour ignoring people’s fears on immigration
12 Mar : As a mere elderly female, who was never particularly politically minded, I have noted the increasing number of letters to the Evening Post regarding immigration.

Letter: Labour ignoring people’s fears on immigration
12 Mar : As a mere elderly female, who was never particularly politically minded, I have noted the increasing number of letters to the Evening Post regarding immigration.
Letter: BNP is demonised
27 Feb : If John Gretton spent a little less time dreaming up fantasies about the European Union and spent more time studying election results, he would notice that the BNP invariably receive a greater proportion of the votes cast in elections than the UKIP (Evening Post, February 1 8) with the exception of the last European elections.
Letter: Bnp claim is flawed
18 Feb : Mr Woodward claims the BNP is the largest party supporting withdrawal from the European Union (Your views, February 13).
Letter: BNP, the EU and immigration
13 Feb : Eric Goodyear (Your Views, January 31) states UKIP is the only genuine national party which would withdraw from the European Union.

Traffic lights on go?                                                                                   April 2008

Healthy eating is very much in the forefront of the fight against rising levels of obesity. To help us make the right choices about what we buy, we need clear, easily-read labelling.

Europe-wide food labelling rules are out of date and the European Commission has proposed new front of pack labelling which includes details of percentages and recommended daily allowances.

I do not believe the proposals go far enough.

The Food Standards Agency in the UK supports the traffic light system, which will be familiar to UK shoppers and which is used by many supermarkets and manufacturers. I would like to see the Commission back this approach across Europe.

Research shows the typical shopper takes only four seconds to decide whether to buy a product after picking it up from the shelves. We need front of pack labelling to be clear and easy-to-understand if we want to help people make healthier choices.

The ‘traffic light’ system is just that – red, amber or green to show whether the level of each nutrient is high, medium or low.

I recently met with consumer group Which? and with the UK’s Food Standards Agency (FSA) to discuss effective food labelling and, as a member of the European Parliament’s influential Environment Committee, I plan to examine and make amendments to the proposals.

The FSA developed the ‘traffic light’ system following extensive consumer research. It motivates people to think about what they are buying. I think the rest of Europe could also benefit from it.

Best wishes

 

European Commission proposals on food labelling

Campaign News

We had the first Euro Election Campaign meeting in early April, involving Regional Labour Party staff,  members of the Regional Board, and, of course, my fellow candidates Roy Kennedy, Kathy Salt, David Morgan and Cate Taylor.    If your CLP/branch want to invite any of the candidates to meetings or other events, please let Emilie Oldknow, East Midlands Regional Director, have the details – or send them to my office and we will forward them, so that activity can be co-ordinated.

Jo’s Trust Walk for Fun

I will be taking part in the Jo’s Trust Walk for Fun in Leicester later this month.  Jo’s Trust is a charity dedicated to women and their families and friends affected by cervical cancer.  They have been very helpful to me in my work with the Cervical Cancer Group in the European Parliament and I want to do all I can to support them.

The Walk for Fun is a national event, but I will be walking in Abbey Park in Leicester, with my  friend – and your former MEP - Mel Read, who is President of the European Cervical Cancer Association. The Walk  - just 3 kilometres - is on Sunday 27th April starting at midday.

Come and join us if you can – entry is £5.  If you can’t make it, but would like to show your support, you can sponsor me on the walk.

If you want further information, or if you would like to sponsor me, please email maggie@gleniswillmott.org.uk or phone the office on 0115 922 9717. You can also find information about the Walk on the Jo’s Trust website.

Protecting children from abuse

The EU needs to act urgently to halt the spread of paedophilia sites on the internet.

According to Home Office figures, in the space of only ten years the number of people cautioned for possessing child abuse images rose by almost 3,000%. This is an astounding increase – and that is just for England and Wales. The vast majority of the cautions were given for downloading child porn images from the web.

The Internet Watch Foundation has said the UK has virtually eradicated the hosting of potentially illegal online child abuse content. But there is obviously still access to sites hosted elsewhere. These people evade closure by ‘hopping’ servers across different legal jurisdictions. Some of them even store their images in fragments in different servers around the world.

This is why it is vital that all the EU countries unite to fight this. We need targeted rules to stop these criminals. Together we can combat online child abuse.


Check the Written Declaration, which I have signed.
UK Labour MEPs’ Parliamentary Expenditure

MPs’ and MEPs’ expenditure is in the news again.  It is of great concern when parliamentarians are found to be misusing public money. It damages people’s confidence in democracy. In Europe, Labour MEPs have called on all MEPs to adopt their system of having their expenses monitored by independent auditors. Parliamentary Expenditure by all MEPs is controlled by the Parliament Authorities. Before payment for staff can be authorised or reimbursed, signed contracts have to be submitted for approval to the Parliament’s Fees Office.  At the end of each year MEPs must submit a detailed account of amounts paid and to whom, with a declaration that all national insurance and tax obligations have been fulfilled.The European Parliamentary Labour Party (EPLP) goes further.  In 2000 it introduced a requirement that all Labour Members have their Office and Staffing expenditure approved by an independent auditor who then submits a report to the EPLP. It would be a pity if the reputations of all MEPs were to suffer because of the actions of a minority.

Europe-wide child abduction alert system

A lot of publicity surrounded the visit by Gerry and Kate McCann to the Parliament in Brussels, in support of a more effective missing child alert system.  The issue of child abduction is one that I and other colleagues have been trying to address for some considerable time.  I will be signing the Written Declaration calling for such a system to be set up urgently.

Mine’s a pint, love

You may have read reports in some of the local press, emanating from the Tories, alleging that the EU has banned drinkers from calling their local barmaid ‘love’. Let’s get the facts straight.

The Equal Treatment Directive, which actually became law in the UK over 2 years ago, made it easier for women at work to stop inappropriate behaviour and lewd remarks by colleagues and bosses, which in some cases were making their working lives unbearable.

This is not about a friendly ‘love ‘or duck’ here and there, but about treatment which is “intimidating, hostile, degrading, humiliating or offensive” to women and which needs to be stamped out.

The Newark Labour Party is looking for help in the forthcoming    by-election in the next few months this year 2008.  He believes in being an active councillor if elected for the good of  Newark, dealing with the individual needs, and also providing a voice for the people all year round. He is married with two children lives in the Newark area.

  
We are only a few months away from important local by-election in Newark. I will be a hard-working for you all year and not just  at an elect time. Please give your help and support. I will build up a local knowledge if some thing like work man are digging up the road, I will be expected to know what they’re going to who long it will take if you phone me. I will be calling to many home in the next few weeks, if you would like a visit or a phone call please ring me 01636-681878
 
 
Some of my interest  are safe guard Newark Cemetery many problems at many have included vandalism. I am a member and Vice Chairman Friends of Newark Cemetery will need to safe guard our Cemetery together. For 10 years I have been caring for the elderly at Millbank and member of St John Ambulance giving my support  with first aider duties. I have been a Newark Town Council Councillor serving from 2004-2007. I have raised funds for the homeless charity Framework for the last few years.
 
LET’S ALL CYCLE TO WORK AND SCHOOL, WHICH IS GOOD FOR YOUR HEALTH
I cycle around  Newark town,  for 11 years. I will use my bike to visit many of you.  Cycling is fun,  green and healthy.
 
There are over 38 million empty seats on the UK’s roads every day. Why not ‘make the most of it’ by sharing lifts? There are over 38 million empty seats on the UK’s roads every day. Why not ‘make the most of it’ by sharing a lifts? 50% of commuters say they would be willing to share a car if they could find someone suitable to travel with. Commuters should be nice to bike riders.
 
The days are starting to get longer and the weather is getting warmer. There’s nothing better than passing these cars when the traffic is bad on Beacon Hill Road, London Road and many busy Roads.  The cycle track off Beacon Hill Road and London Road near Balderton and Newark, is a life line to people that cycle.
 
Cars have been racing up and down Beacon Hill Road and the many Roads in and out of Newark for years. Residents have voiced their concerns to me. No journey is urgent. Pedestrians’ Nightmare! Speeding has to be the No1 most dangerous activity you can embark on.
 
 
I believes passionately that, Newark needs a Council that reflects the spread of ages, ethnicities and gender which make up our diverse community. Labour is the only party which includes and represents all the community.
 

 I will be actively involved and committed to representing you wholeheartedly throughout the next few years together.Last year Councillors hand picked 18 people without an election this is just not right.
We needed to found new people to take the first step into local Government next time.Politics is essentially about trying to influence the people of the Newark. This attempt to make a difference to how things work. You align yourself with people of similar values and can get more opportunities to debate;campaign;influence the political agenda and mix with people in the political world.Your strong contribution;it is equally important that our public bodies and political structure have among its pillars proper representation from our community from the young and old alike.

CYCLING OF HEALTH IN AND AROUND NEWARK AND BALDERTON

WORK WHICH IS GOOD FOR YOUR HEALTH. Cycling is fun, fast, green and healthy. That’s why I want you to spend more time pedalling. Cycling kids are confident kids, more independent and brainier to boot. Just 15 minutes cycling to and from school could make a real difference to your child’s fitness, establishing habits of healthy activity that could be life-long.

Cycling makes you fitter, more alert, cleverer A more active lifestyle now, continued into adulthood, would greatly improve your child’s chance of living a long and healthy life. Physical inactivity is a far greater cause of heart disease than smoking, yet we take it much less seriously. Daily exercise has many immediate benefits as well. They include improved bone strength, muscle tone, healthier joints, increased alertness and improved academic performance. Teachers often comment that children who walk or cycle to school arrive brighter and more ready to learn than those driven by car, and a recent US study showed a positive link between physical activity and performance in school tests.

And don’t let the kids have all the fun, cycle with your children to school. Use the ’school run’ as the kick-start to better health you’ve been planning for ages. Cycling to school will save you money on busfares or petrol and is often quicker than getting into the car and getting snarled up in traffic.
 
There are over 38 million empty seats on the UK’s roads every day. Why not ‘make the most of it’ by sharing lifts? There are over 38 million empty seats on the UK’s roads every day. Why not ‘make the most of it’ by sharing a lifts? 50% of commuters say they would be willing to share a car if they could find someone suitable to travel with.
 
Commuters should be nice to bike riders, I use my bike EVERY day to work, and any free time. The days are starting to get longer and the weather is getting warmer. You have hopefully been cycling through winter, but, if not, spring is one of the best times of the year to get back on your bike or to start cycling for the first time. There’s nothing better than passing these cars when the traffic is bad. This cycle track on Farndon Road, Newark, is a life line to the good people that cycle through the traffic – it’s good for the environment and great for your health.use it which I sorry to say not to many. On traffic-free routes, particularly in the Newark areas, we are seeing a very significant uptake in use.

The benefits of cycling are far-reaching… Not only does it allow YOU to save time and money, but there are massive benefits to your health and environment too.

Cycling to school is sociable Cycling encourages independence for me around Newark.

 He believes in being an active councillor in the  forthcoming by- election for the good of Newark, dealing with the individual needs, and also providing a voice for the people all year round. He is married with two children lives in the Newark area.

Your view need to be heard loud and clear?

We are holding two  important local by-election in Newark. I will be a hard-working for you all year and not just at an elect time.  I will build up a local knowledge if some thing like work man are digging up the road, I will be expected to know what they’re going to who long it will take if you phone me. I will be calling to many home in the next few weeks, if you would like a visit or a phone call please ring me 01636-681878 email laurencegoff@yahoo.co.uk

Some of my interest are safe guarding  Newark Cemetery many problems at many have included vandalism. I am a member and Vice Chairman Friends of Newark Cemetery will need to safe guard our Cemetery together. For 10 years I have been caring for the elderly at Millbank and member of St John Ambulance giving my support with first aider duties. I have been a Newark Town Council Councillor serving from 2004-2007. I have raised funds for the homeless charity Framework for the last few years.

LET’S ALL CYCLE TO WORK AND SCHOOL, WHICH IS GOOD FOR YOUR HEALTH
I cycled around Newark area, for 11 years. I will use my bike to visit many of you. Cycling is fun, green and healthy.

There are over 38 million empty seats on the UK’s roads every day. Why not ‘make the most of it’ by sharing lifts? There are over 38 million empty seats on the UK’s roads every day. Why not ‘make the most of it’ by sharing a lifts? 50% of commuters say they would be willing to share a car if they could find someone suitable to travel with. Commuters should be nice to bike riders.

The days are starting to get longer and the weather is getting warmer. There’s nothing better than passing these cars when the traffic is bad on Newark Road. More cycle track trails are needed in Newark, is a life line to people that cycle.

Cars have been racing up and down Beacon Hill Road for years. Residents have voiced their concerns to me. No journey is urgent. Pedestrians’ Nightmare! Speeding has to be the No1 most dangerous activity you can embark on.

I believes passionately that, Newark needs a Council that reflects the spread of ages, ethnicities and gender which make up our diverse community. Labour is the only party which includes and represents all the community.

I will be actively involved and committed to representing you wholeheartedly throughout the next few years together.

Laurence Goff, Newark Constituency Labour Party (CLP) Chairman 2008

Message from Laurence Goff, Newark Constituency Labour Party (CLP) Chairman 2008

Let us be proud of the achievements of this Labour Government after nearly 11 years in power. For example here are just a few of the Top 50 Achievements since May 2007:

  • Introduced the National Minimum Wage and raised it to £5.52.
  • Over 14,000 more police in England and Wales.
  • Cut overall crime by 32 per cent.
  • Written off up to 100 per cent of debt owed by poorest countries.
  • Dads now get paternity leave of 2 weeks for the first time.
  • Introduced the Equality and Human Rights Commission.
  • £200 winter fuel payment to pensioners & up to £300 for over-80s.
  • Over 36,000 more teachers in England and 274,000 more support staff and teaching assistants.
  • All full time workers now have a right to 24 days paid holiday.

We need to build on these achievements by confronting the big issues across the Newark Constituency. Please voice your concerns to us so we can act.

I am 100% committed to facing the challenges that cannot be ignored e.g. gridlocked roads and our sometimes chaotic transport system; inequality and prejudice whether it be based on race, gender, disability or whatever; anti-social behaviour by the few making life unbearable for many.

Now is the time to declare your support before it is too late. Together we can make a huge difference but we need your help. Please tell us your concerns and let us have your ideas so we can campaign effectively and stop the unthinkable from happening at the next General Election!!!
