Give all Covid-19 frontline workers a well deserved pay rise.

give all those in the NHS and local government ran care homes a well deserved pay rise. They continue to put themselves selflessly at the forefront of this pandemic working tirelessly to make sure people are cared for. They deserve to be rewarded once this crisis is over.

The Government funds most public sector salaries, and is involved in setting the salaries of some of some public sector workers, but is not responsible for setting the pay of many keyworkers.

We have published a number of petitions calling on the Government to take action to financially reward various keyworkers, which you might like to sign:
