What the petition asks

A simple and widespread solution to the economic crisis caused by Covid-19

This would be not dependant on credit score, housing situation or employment status – as long as the applicant can satisfy that they have an income to repay the debt.
Following years of austerity, the destabilising effect of Brexit and the current Covid-19 crisis affecting us all the economy is deteriorating from its previous already stagnant status. The people are suffering, across all backgrounds.

In these unprecedented times an economic reset is required and therefore I put forward this suggestion to ensure our economy can quickly recover and grow after the current crisis abates.
