What the petition asks
Due to the legal enforced lockdowns across as Scotland and England many students are legally unable to return to student accommodation and are being urged to stay at home yet the accommodations still want rent therefore the government should have a rent paying scheme for those who cannot return.
They are the ones who determined we need to be at home yet we are all still being made to pay by our accommodation.
