Rejected petition Tax relief for key workers during corona virus outbreak

it’s not fair that this list of key workers should still have to pay tax on there monthly pay while still trying to do there jobs to there highest standards to keep our country running. They should be exempt from paying tax while keeping the country running through out the corona virus outbreak

More details

Things have been put in place for workers who are being put of work work due to the virus so they still receive an income, people on benefits are being given a rise yet these key workers are still expected to go out to work everyday without getting anything more for doing so just to keep the country going
