Rejected petition Fine All UK Shoppers who are seen Stockpiling during this Coronavirus pandemic!

The Government must act now to stop the public from stockpiling toilet paper, kitchen towels, hand tissues, baby wipes through to other goods like dried pasta, rice or any other canned goods.

Rationing must be brought into effect now.

More details

Fine all those who stockpile - introduce a system whereby you can only enter a shop once a day - employ more staff if needs be to cover entrances - also fine heavily those who abuse this process, including those who are either a supermarket/high st shop/corner shop worker.

Give the elderly and those on low incomes a chance to purchase items from either a supermarket, high street shop and/or corner shop. Rationing must be brought into effect now.

Perhaps bring back Ration books for certain items to be agreed.
