Increase pay for NHS nurses to a min of 3%

Rejected 16 signatures

What the petition asks

We would like the government to take nurses and the NHS staff seriously. We would like parliament to increase NHS staff nurses and workers pay to minimum of 3% not 1%
The NHS staff have worked so hard over the pandemic whilst other people have been furloughed and paid by the government. To then offer a pay increase of 1% is an insult to our NHS staff
