      <title>Ammend Charges Against Vendiz Charles</title>
      <link>https://www.gopetition.com/petitions/ammend-charges-against-vendiz-charles.html?utm_medium=rss</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>On Monday, January 30, 2017 Mr. Vendiz Charles was formally charged by the police with attempted murder. This charge stems from an incident where the Clare Hall Secondary freshman teacher threw a stone which struck a student on the head. The statements offered by those who witnessed the event, as well as a video recording of the incident clearly indicate that there was no malice in the teacher's action. In fact, the teacher's presence with the child at the hospital following the incident was also indicative of his deep sense of concern and remorse over what transpired. The A&BUT and the entire community wishes the student a safe and speedy recovery.</p>]]></description>

      <title>National Call for Public Debates</title>
      <link>https://www.gopetition.com/petitions/national-call-for-public-debates.html?utm_medium=rss</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>The purpose of this page is to gather enough signatures (LIKES) to force National Public Debates between the political parties in Antigua and Barbuda.  This is intended to be the genesis of paradigm shift in our political climate for the betterment of our society.</p>

<p>We no longer want to hear political rhetoric spewed from a loud speaker on a vehicle nor do we want to hear political candidates abuse each other at political rallies. No longer do we want to hear empty promises or nearly impossible promises coming from a political platform without substance or the possibility of a question or challenge from the electorate.</p>

<p>We need our Candidates to speak to issues those we, the electorate, care about. We want to be able to question our leaders on these issues, hear the details of their plans and effectively analyze their program for Antigua and Barbuda.</p>

<p>Some of the issues include:<br />
1.	Education<br />
2.	Health Care<br />
3.	Economy<br />
4.	Youth</p>

<p>We believe that this initiative would better aid the electorate in making more informative decisions at the polls.</p>]]></description>
