Credit card companies must not be allowed to make money from the pandemic Many people will have taken on credit card borrowing, expecting to pay it off using their regular income, and now have no regular income, or substantially less income, or are being temporarily supported through the benefit system. Every financial avenue needs to be explored to help at this very difficult time. I have seen no sign to date that the financial sector, who have made billions from credit charges over the years, are offering this help and they need to step up now, and do their bit. This help is cross cutting as it impacts the economy, health, and welfare.

Death in service Support to extend death in service cover is needed from the Government for all healthcare workers, to give them peace of mind for their families and loved ones, should the worst happen. Now more than ever with the pandemic of covid 19 and the NHS STAFF working tirelessly to treat the patients, we are just as vulnerable as anyone else. PPE does not make us immune. The dependants of NHS staff receive their full death in service entitlement, irrespective of whether they are an active member of the NHS pension scheme. To ensure medical students, junior colleagues and lower paid NHS staff’s families receive a fair entitlement, we are also calling for the introduction of a minimum amount payable if an NHS worker dies in service.

So every visitor to Trafalgar Square will see how much the UK cherishes and supports the NHS and the debt we owe to the NHS staff.

The government's plan is to delay the talks scheduled for November 2020 until May next year. The Climate is Number 1 emergency when we start to rebuild after Covid 19. The IPCC, the body of the world's leading experts, said in 2018 that catastrophic climate breakdown is inevitable within this decade unIess we change course and start to bring down carbon emissions dramatically. In addition, having the talks online would avoid the damaging effects of delegates travelling.

Families across the residents of the glasshouse will not be able to pay for a room that isn’t being used especially when they are out of work because of governments advice or they have been directly effected by the COVID-19 pandemic. It is only morally right to waiver the last sum.

During this outbreak, prison workers are going out each day to keep us safe. They are not being tested for covid-19 and are unable to lock down for 3 weeks as advised by the government. Imagine if they did, there would be riots in prisons across the UK if they were left with a skeleton staff. But Aldi will not recognise them as keyworkers. They are part of our crime and justice system, please sign this petition to get them recognised as keyworkers.

As the majority of the country are off work and schools there is a lot more waste and rubbish. Normally people would travel to waste disposal centres themselves but as these are closed and as special uplift services have stopped also, rubbish is piling up everywhere, people may fly tip and we may soon be overrun.

Most of us dislike the idea of waste and to see plants being binned before they have had the chance of even being planted out seems to be not just a waste but a sad loss to our communities and a disaster to the nursery people who have planted and nurtured them. Most of these could be put to good use to brighten up our parks and other community spaces and the effort of planting them out would help people to deal with the effects of the Covid-19 epidemic. In addition if done as a community effort it would be a good memorial throughout the summer months, and beyond. It is essential that we quickly get as many signatures as we can. Time is running out for these plants. The annuals are probably already lost, but the perennials, shrubs and bushes could still be saved and grace our public areas for several years.

We have already lost three precious senior colleagues including a GP, a Transplant Surgeon and an ENT colleague. A Medscape survey last week revealed 72% of doctors did not have access to PPE, 85% of those who had supply, were inappropriate, many had improperly fitting masks, and 72% of hospitals did not have access to Antigen tests. According to the 'Doctors' Association UK, there is increasing disconfort amonst progfessionals and they feel complelled to leave the profession(https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/mar/24/doctors-threaten-to-quit-over-protective-equipment-shortage) A vast majority of GPs, including many of my colleagues are working with a basic plastic apron with no long sleeves and a paper surgical mask working in the front line, and many clinical specialities classed as low risk do not have sufficient or any protection provided as recommended by Public Health, England. Despite Government's reassurance abut supply of PPE, it is still not reaching the front line.(https://www.independent.co.uk/news/health/coronavirus-nhs-uk-doctors-gagged-england-a9433171.html) Healthcare professionals with inadequate protection feel like 'Lambs' whisked towards a slaughter house, and there is increasing discomfort in doing their jobs. We request you to ensure adequate and appropriate PPE supply to all healthcare professionals with immediate effect,we can not afford to lose any more NHS staff due to inadequate protection at work.

Research shows that more than 650 million meals worth of surplus food goes to waste despite being fit for human consumption. In the current situation this is a disgrace. Fareshare is a network providing just under one million meals a week to vulnerable people. The Government funded a trial last year but is not intending to continue it this year when it will be needed more than ever.

In this worrying time with everyone in financial dificulties due coronavirus, refunds on school bus passes should be enforced to help everyone across the UK. This has already been put in place in Kent.

For structure to our life, nostalgic purposes and to distract us from the news for a short while. In years to come we will say ‘do you remember movie time on tv?’
