Government to give significant payrise to all NHS staff on the frontline

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Provide more support to NHS staff and frontline workers through this COVID pandemic who have been working long shifts, who are mentally tired and exhausted, who have lost colleagues to COVID and have families of their own.
Politicians have been quick to give praise for the exemplary work of the NHS at the time of this crisis with clapping during the first wave of the Virus. Yet that has done nothing for all NHS staff who are in the midst of the second wave with more cases, more deaths and more colleagues going of sick.

If the government want to show real support to NHS provide more funding and wage increases for all.
