Revert the country back to Pre-Covid-19.

What the petition asks
The government must revert the country back to pre-covid-19 status due to the lasting effects a further lockdown would have on individuals and the economy.
With a National lockdown looking increasingly likely, I fear the long term effect outweigh the short term. National debt, children’s education and families who rely on regular income should be priority.
Government shouldn’t even be considering a lockdown. The economy is priority. Excessive debt, no work and school shutdowns will effect far more people that coronavirus. Keep the country open and protect the vulnerable and elderly!
