Rejected

What the petition asks
I want you to consider that large numbers of school children, staff and important Hospital staff use the bus/train to travel to work. Transport workers come into contact before and after they travel to and from work/school placing them in a very high risk group
Give transport workers a more important place in society, they perform an essential service for the country but in all the fuss about Teachers are totally forgotten and are unwittingly taking the virus home and infecting their families.
