Rejected
13 signatures
What the petition asks
The Parliament must mandate the Government to immediately cease the nationwide health policy that has been put into practice regarding the COVID-19 outbreak, which severely endangers the majority of the British people. As the mortality rate continues to rise, the Government must
[1] maximise the number of NHS staff nationwide to increase the treatment capacity, rather than leaving the people in need to decease at home, especially the working- and middle-class.
[2] impose a nationwide quarantine and close all the public places, including the schools and universities, to immediately combat the fast spread of the virus.
[3] distribute all the essential food- and health-related goods among all the people equally.
[4] Improve the people safety by increasing visible police on the roads and public places.
