Rejected petition Give Key Workers in England with continuous service a 12 month PAYE Tax break.

Provide all Key Workers in England who have a record of continuous service throughout the Covid National Lockdown a FULL PAYE Tax Break for a 12 month period as a thank you for the risks they have taken helping the country to continue to function by delivering vital services.

More details

Key Workers in England have spent 12 months dealing with harrowing and mentally exhausting times during the Covid-19 Lockdowns. They have continually put themselves and their families at risk in order to deliver vital services to the Country during a period of extreme stress and I believe they should be rewarded for the sacrifices they have made and the Mental Exhaustion they have had to endure.
