What the petition asks
The least we can do as a country is to make sure that when NHS staff go to work they can park for free and get meals at a reasonable cost. Otherwise we run the risk of doctors, nurses and ancillary staff being late for shifts or unable to function due to malnourishment.
NHS staff are the backbone of a healthy UK, and the government has been awful about ensuring that they get enough pay to live a reasonable life outside of work. We should be doing everything we can as a nation to protect our NHS, and looking after the staff properly is a good start.
I spoke recently with a regular attendee at a local NHS-run restaurant, and they reported that doctors and nurses are being charged exorbitant prices for basic staples, which really doesn't seem right.
