What the petition asks
Free dental care for all British Citizens
Free dental care is essential to make the British workforce productive and efficient, whilst giving everybody a pain free existence. Lower paid workers do not have the money to spend on their teeth and often suffer as a consequence. Teeth are a basic requirement for a happy and healthy life, so why shouldn't everybody be able to get free dental care.
