What the petition asks
End the UK coronavirus lockdown immediately. Repeal the restrictions on leaving home, business trading and travel, that has arisen as part of the current coronavirus lockdown.
This lockdown is extremely damaging to businesses and livelihoods alike. It is also damaging to the personal mental health of the citizens of this country. A study by a Glasgow university found that the previous lockdown led to a "creeping rise" in suicidal thoughts in persons aged 18-29 years, rising from 8% to 10%, The University Of Glasgow found.
With the forced closure of businesses such as salons, art painting stores & cinemas, there will be a considerable negative impact on the economy.
