What the petition asks
Staff of the National Health Service should be able to travel to and from work every day and night without having to worry about how they will afford to do so. They are the lifeline and backbone of this country and should be able to support us in all they do with as much support as we can give.
In light of the recent events in the UK, it has become more evident than ever how important all of our NHS staff are to us. Each and every one of them has put themselves in the middle of this pandemic and will continue to do so when this all blows over. The NHS staff should be entitled to free public transport and reduced rates - if not free - parking whilst at work. The NHS staff members, every single one, should be able to get to their workplace without having to dip into their own pockets.
