What the petition asks

The NHS has been on the frontline of the covid pandemic, putting their lives at risk and losing many of their colleagues. The offer of 1% payrise is an insult and should be reviewed.
Whatever it takes was the mantra of the government but time and time again they have let us down. To offer the NHS this slap in the face after all they have done, is an insult.
