Rejected petition Ensure all frontline workers get the appropriate & essential PPE now!

I want the Government to stop talking & start acting. How many more Doctors, Nurses, Healthcare workers, Bus drivers & shop assistants are going to die because of NO Personal Protective Equipment. I keep hearing "Protect the NHS" the best way to do that is to PROVIDE protection for frontline staff.

More details

I want the Government to ACT now. The NHS has been drained of resources for decades. Promise after promise! Dedicated staff are putting their lives at risk while the Government fall short on promise after promise!
