Give NHS staff a payrise. And a government funded bonus for private careworkers

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

We need to stop clapping and start valuing these people more. It is utterly ridiculous that these front line workers have been put under so much pressure by this incompetent government and they are literally saving lives everyday. They are in a war zone created by tories and many will have ptsd
All NHS staff to receive a pay rise, backdated to March 2020.

Secondly all private care home or care workers who visit to receive a government funded bonus of £1,000 each.

That can be partially funded by mps getting 10% less of their salaries and for the house of Lords daily rate to be reduced to £200 a day from £330.
