Shut ALL building sites in the UK
Rejected

What the petition asks
Shut all building sites and stop construction on all sites in the UK. This will help social distancing and take pressure off NHS.
Take pressure of NHS staff and maintain guidance given by the Gov. Families who have members that need to shield yet people on site can go out and potentially bring the virus back home. A lock down should be a full on lock down and we need more guidance on what actually is essential at this time.
