Tax reduction/reimbursement for all people working during lockdown

Closed 35 signatures

What the petition asks

Give people who have worked thought the Covid 19 lockdown, and are at a higher risk of death and risking their lives, a reduction in taxes paid and reimbursed for some of the taxes they have paid during the lockdown.
The Government has given various sectors grants and loans. The only set of workers NOT being looked after or helped are workers such as those in construction and key workers. We are risking our lives and the lives of our families travelling to and from work on packed and crowded buses, tubes and trains to keep the economy going. We have family members who cannot work, are on furlough or have lost jobs. So we are picking up the financial burden which is growing and affecting everybody.
