Give all NHS workers far more than the 1% pay rise that you are now offering.

Rejected 16 signatures

What the petition asks

The NHS workers have all placed themselves in considerable danger working for us through this Covid-19 onslaught.
They have worked without sufficient correct PPE equipment, when they have not all been vaccinated twice.
1% is actually a net pay cut in real terms- not what the British people want !
We want the Government to give all the NHS workers a significant pay rise in real terms, to reward them for their dedication, hard work, and self-sacrifice. Many have died of Covid during this outbreak already.
