What the petition asks

As a country we should enforce ALL places where food is handled to display their food hygiene rating. Food hygiene is crucial and diseases and infections can occur from "poor hygiene" - we as paying customers have the right to know how hygienic our food is respectively.
It is a known fact that poor food hygiene is associated with serious cases of food poisoning and this could mean having to seek medical evaluation, if you have ever suffered from this you would know it is an unpleasant experience, and it is commonly associated with with pathogens such as Salmonella.
As paying customers we deserve the right to know the standard of hygiene that out food was prepared in respectively.
This should also motivate those poor establishments to up their standards.
