Halt all PAYE and NI contributions for KEY WORKERS, from 19.3.20 to Lockdown end
Rejected

What the petition asks
All key workers have had to continue to help in the coronavirus battle, why not reward those workers by rebating all PAYE and NI contributions from 19th March 2020 until the end of LOCKDOWN. Trying to give payrises to all different sectors will be nigh on impossible, yet HMRC can work this easily.
The mass of the UK are at home being paid 80% minimum of their wages upto 2,500.00, yet Key Workers carry on without complaint. Reward them.
