Rejected petition Government to order banks to skip mortgages for a month, Coronavirus outbreak

Rejected on 20 March 2020

Hi,

It would be useful if all banks skips mortgage for a month at least. Moving forward council tax and energy bills should be considered for the same.

As corona virus caused an economic damage for all taxpayers and business owners including self employed. This will cause struggling situations for everyone to pay the bills
