Add Multiple Sclerosis to the medical exemption list

Closed 50 signatures

What the petition asks

To obtain a medical exemption certificate and get free NHS prescriptions, a condition needs to be on the medical exemption list.
People with MS suffer every day with struggles in their lives. As a country, we are making them pay for an illness they never asked for. This needs to stop. People with MS should be looked after, not forgotten about.
