Introduce Food Rationing Immediately with Personalised Coupons

Rejected 17 signatures

What the petition asks

Introduce food coupons, which entitle the named bearer or a bearer with authorisation from the actual coupon owner, to food and other household items, sufficient for a week on presentation.
This will ensure food and other household items are not hoarded, stockpiled, or resold for profit by the few against the many.

It will also enable the government to put much needed funds directly into the hands of those who need it.
