Supermarket Item restrictions brought by per person as items are running out.

Rejected 13 signatures

What the petition asks

Looking at the News over the past few weeks I feel everyone is really getting out of hand buying items. I feel there is not enough items such as hand wash sanitisers and other basics. I strongly believe that there should be restrictions on how many items individuals can buy per person.

I feel the government needs to take action urgently on this matter because each day someone is in hospital testing positive for Covid-19 and there’s not enough basics left in supermarkets for people to purchase. People are acting very selfish and not thinking about others especially the elderly who are at major risk of catching Coronavirus.
