Stop £10 per month from all UK residents to go direct to NHS wages / equipment · petition

What the petition asks

Make a seperate contribution for all UK residents to pay or be stopped from benefits or the like a sum every month to be paid directly to NHS staff and services.
If 50 million paid £10 per month it would give the NHS £500 million to be split as an increase in the wages and money for vital supplies.

In light of the Covid 19 pandemic and already struggling NHS everyone has had to realise the true value of our NHS service. It's time for everyone to come together and contribute to a health care system that desperately needs and deserves this help. This will more than likely happen again and we all need to be in a better position to cope and deal with this. The country has shown its solidarity for our NHS. This needs to be acted upon.
