Not tax any Nhs staff or key workers during lockdown

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

I want all Nhs workers and key workers not to pay tax on their wages while the uk is in lockdown

It isn't fair that key workers have to pay tax while keeping the country running, most people are having 80% of their wages paid with government help and yet Nhs and key workers are having to pay at least 20% of their wages while putting their lives on the line
