What the petition asks
By banning residential evictions for one year, the government would provide vital protection to millions of renters during the Corvid 19 crisis.
The fear of eviction and debt will push people who could self isolate to return to work.
Without this protection, millions will either spread the virus further, or enter a cycle of debt that will destroy more lives.
It is in the governments power to act now and be proactive for their people.
