Closed petition Require that 90% of goods sold are essential for businesses to stay open

Closed on

All businesses have been effected by lockdown. Too many are open while selling limited essential products but falling under essential retail.

The Government should require that only businesses which sell at least 90% of essential goods are allowed to stay open during lockdown.

We want all businesses to be treated fairly throughout this pandemic. The Government needs to consider that some shops, markets and businesses are selling only a few limited essential product lines and are still able to operate.
