Scrap ministerial plane painting and pay Student Nurses what they were promised

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Place a stop on the painting of the ministerial VIP aeroplane and use the £900,000 to put towards paying the student nurses of the NHS what they are owed for their service during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The utter absurdity of painting a plane to the tune of £900,000 tax payers money when air travel is at it's least useful mid pandemic is abhorrent and a total slap in the face to our front line workers.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

By the time your petition was started, the plane had already been painted. It's not clear what action can be taken now.
