It does not seem fair for people who have been working during the lockdown to be penalised for this and for these individuals to have to pay this money back. They would also have already paid their tax and national insurance for this period.","committee_note":null,"state":"rejected","signature_count":16,"created_at":"2020-06-09T22:46:30.843Z","updated_at":"2020-08-19T12:44:50.608Z","rejected_at":"2020-08-19T12:44:50.611Z","opened_at":null,"closed_at":null,"moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2020-06-10T18:15:44.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"debate_scheduled_on":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"rejection":{"code":"duplicate","details":"You may wish to sign this petition calling for the same action: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/315030"},"government_response":null,"debate":null,"departments":[],"topics":[]}}}
