10 signatures
What the petition asks
because of the recent panic buying we are seeing supermarkets stripped of food supplies it would be helpful if the army could help with food delivery so everyone can be assured they will receive the food they require following the covid virus outbreak.
it would also be helpful if food delivery by the army is extended to the elderly and vulnerable households who have a disabled person in residence this could be done for anyone who receives a qualifying disability benefit giving them a guaranteed weekly food package for there household
Why it was rejected
The UK Government or Parliament was already taking the action it asked for.
Since you started this e-petition, the army are undertaking actions including food delivery.
