Rejected petition Post Corona prioritise pay rises and further funding for NHS and teaching

Given the amazing effort of our NHS staff and the value we all now realise they and our teaching infrastructure do for our society, and the way we lean on them most heavily during crisis, please, please let's pay and fund them appropriately once the virus has passed. It's more important than HS2

More details

Because the NHS saved this country during crisis, and we all now realise the equally great work teachers do, when we had to try and do it ourselves. Let's reward and value these pillars of our society by funding above and beyond minimum and make sure they are paid appropriately. No more pay freezes for 10 years in these areas.
