Rejected petition Impact of lockdown on mental health

I wish Parliament to look at other ways of dealing with the pandemic beyond the scope of Lockdowns. I feel healthy people are being impacted beyond the remit of the disease effects. The toll on the mental health of all should be considered and held above the pandemic in regard of future potential.

More details

Parliament acts on behalf of the people and it is their duty to safeguard mental health for all and shield the effects of the pandemic from the public. The government should set up an independent review into alternative measures to control the virus
