Rejected petition Give key workers a wage increase or bonus.

Rejected on 2 April 2020

So many 'Low Skilled Jobs' are keeping the nation going. A wage Increase or bonus to make these poeple feel valued for the great serivce they are doing. When the time is right in this unfortunate circumstances I hope it will be implemented.

NHS are Long over due a pay rise which I think should be a given. But the key workers, feeding the Nation, supplying medical equipment and delivering key supplies Should be rewarded in some way.
