What the petition asks
After many failures from the current UK government in the handling of the Corona virus - to name a couple, PPE provision for the care workers and test and trace, It is not wise to add more chaos with Brexit scheduled for the end of 2020.
We need all efforts turn on the sanitary crisis.
We need all efforts turn on the sanitary crisis.
As a nation, we are not containing Corona virus propagation like New Zealand. We have mainly seen incompetence in the handling. It is not enough to clap for care workers and not provide them the minimum protection (PPE) and assurance (regular tests) to do their front line work.
As a nation, we don't have humane or economic resources to manage 2 crisis. Let us deal one crisis at a time.
