Fast track NHS staff by going to the front of the queue in shops/supermarkets

All major supermarkets such as Tesco, ASDA, Sainsbury's, petrol stations, local shops. should permit NHS staff to bypass all queues with an NHS card during this time. Make this a Law.

If you serve the public in these times of need, then we need to service our brave heroes in our time of need.

The opening and delivery arrangements for supermarkets are a matter for individual retailers, not the Government or Parliament. A number of retailers have announced plans to prioritise elderly or vulnerable customers, and NHS workers. Customers should contact their local supermarket to find out if they have put such arrangements in place.

The Government has made certain changes to enable supermarkets to work together during the coronavirus outbreak, particularly to serve customers who are elderly, ill or vulnerable: https://www.gov.uk/government/news/supermarkets-to-join-forces-to-feed-the-nation
