Pause the System: UK take necessary action on COVID-19
1) Pause the System: Respond to the health emergency appropriately by halting non-essential business.
2) Support Everyone: Take care of the most vulnerable and provide universal basic income.
3) Transform the System: Prevent future pandemics by taking action on climate change and factory farming.
We are in a public health emergency. The Government is failing to listen to the World Health Organisation and are prioritising the economy, disregarding the lives of the most vulnerable in our communities. We need to pause the system, put the UK into lockdown and support everyone in doing so. A change from business as usual will give humans and the planet a change from an economic system which is destroying the planet and provide the space to reflect and imagine better alternatives.
