Grant indefinite leave to all overseas key workers including retail workers.

What the petition asks

In this Covid-19 pandemic situation, foreign nationals put their lives at risk to help Britain keep going. These are the people offering their services in various sectors selflessly. They are the real heroes like all others including NHS staff.

Because in this situation only some people are working and these people are key workers who are contributing in Britain’s biggest crisis in this unprecedented time. These are the people who deserve to live independently without the need to worry about their immigration status.
