Rejected petition Free Internet for every household during the lockdown!

I think that it is absolutely imperative that the UK Government makes sure that people are able to mentain contact with friends and families during the lockdown. Since we must stay home, the only way to do this is through the social media channels. Therefore a internet connection is vital.

More details

There are millions of people that are struggling with their bills during this unprecedented times. We hear everyday about the suicide rate rising and we wonder why. Domestic violence is higher then ever and child mental health is a big issue.
Please help people to stay in touch with family and friends by keeping them online.
