Petition Action

Introduce Lockdown for the entire country given the current Covid-19 Crisis.

Petition Details

I would like the Goverment to introduce Lockdown across England to give instruction, rather than only guidance, to the nation. Whilst the Government have made drastic changes day by day, the nation remains divided in their responses, actions and behaviours. The guidelines need to be black and white.

Additional Information

Whilst I am pleased with some of the measures the Government have introduced via Live Press Conferences this week, I am increasingly concerned that the interpretation of the guidance varies dramatically across the nation.
I fear that this is limiting the success we can have in saving lives.
Many people are struggling to make every day decisions owing to the fact that we are being given advice, and not instruction. We all need to be acting consistently for real success.
