Change the virus wage support offered so no one gets less than minimum wage.
Government are offering to cover wages to value of 80% of wages if unable to work due to coronavirus up to maximum of £2500. No one should be paid less than minimum wage during this period. Make sure those that need the cash the most get it.
Just an additional line saying no one cover by the wage support gets less than minimum wage, show your a party for the people.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
The National Minimum Wage is an hourly rate of pay, not a minimum income.
We have published a petition calling on the Government to implement Universal Basic Income to give home and food security through Covid-19, which you might like to sign: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/302284
