Rejected petition nurseries to remain open to KEY WORKERS ONLY

The government should only allow children with parents who are key workers to attend nursery during lock down (tier 5) in the United Kingdom.

More details

The government needs to protect children under five just as much as everybody over the age of five. It is unfair and very unjust for children to attend nursery if there parents are at home. You are helping children spread the virus as well as leaving all early years staff unprotected.
