Rejected petition Give immigrant NHS workers citizenship, cancel student debts of doctors & nurses

Every NHS worker, every doctor, and every nurse who is putting their own life at risk on the frontline of the coronavirus response, must be acknowledged and rewarded. Properly.

More details

Our frontline NHS workers are literally dying because they are saving our lives. Far more are sick, and even more forced to isolate from friends and family.

This is the least we can do.
