Rejected petition Immediately suspend pay for parking at hospitals.

I understand the need for parking control in the normal scheme of things, but today the only people parking in hospital car parks are hardworking nhs staff, and people visiting those sick with Coronavirus or other chronic conditions.

More details

The staff trying to save our lives, working harder than ever before should not be further disadvantaged by having to pay for parking. Also they must be safer travelling to work by car than using public transport.
