Rejected petition All NHS, Police, Fire service and Armed forces personnel to receive 20% pay rise

A 20% pensionable pay increase should be given as recognition for services during Covid-19 outbreak.

More details

Public sector workers have had no choice during the Covid-19 outbreak but to continue working. A 20% pay increase would bring Public Sector workers back in line with inflation after years of austerity, pensionable wages that were lost during the 10 year pay freeze. This increase MUST not affect subsequent wage growth for a minimum of 10 years. All subsequent annual pay rises must maintain the status quo of inflation.
