Closed petition Reinvest lockdown fines directly back into the NHS

Use the funds raised by fines for those flouting the lockdown to support the local NHS with staffing, equipment and other associated costs of dealing with the Covid pandemic on top of winter pressures.

More details

The NHS is buckling under the weight of Covid-19 combined with winter pressures. PPE, ventilators and other equipment are needed but staffing, or a shortage thereof, is the biggest safety risk at present. Use the revenue raised by fining people for breaking lockdown restrictions to fund local NHS acute trusts.

About petition data

The data shows the number of people who have signed the petition by country as well as in the constituency of each Member of Parliament. This data is available for all petitions on the site. It is not a list of people who have signed the petition. The only name that is shared on the site is that of the petition creator.

We’re waiting for a new Petitions Committee
