Rejected petition Make nurses in the the NHS exempt from the annual registration fee to be a nurse

I want the government to exempt nurses employed by the NHS to be exempt from their current £120 per year nurses registration fee or to make this tax payer funded, via say, an increase in NI.

More details

The current pandemic has shown the world how great out NHS is, but the front line staff are bearing the brunt of this and they should not have to pay for the privilege off looking after the UK.
After all if they were in the private sector their employer would probably pay this anyway and look at possible tax breaks too!
