What the petition asks
We would like the National Lockdown in the UK cancelled due to the incorrect data that has been shared in parliament.
The data presented in parliament that led to the decision to lockdown the nation is incorrect.
It has now come to light that hospitals are not as busy as indicated on the old graph that was used.
The number of cases are now combined with regular flu which therefore inflate numbers.
The PCR test is projecting thousands of false positives of which parliament has acknowledged.
The lockdown is detrimental to small businesses, UK economy, the vulnerable and those that suffer from mental health.
