Rejected
21 signatures
What the petition asks
There are still people going to work that arent key workers, there are still packed trains, there are still a few shops open that shouldn't be. People are not listening to the government and the government need to bring in heavier measures right now.
The government need to bring In military and more police and shut down 99% of london barring pharmacies and supermarkets! Doctors and nurses, supermarket workers, pharmacists etc are all risking their health/lives and NOBODY is listening to what is being said nor are they learning from other countries! We need a full lock down in the uk to gain even slight control over this ! It needs to be done for our people, our drs and nurses and for our older generation that fought for this country! STAY IN
