Tax free salary for NHS workers during COVID 19 pandemic

Petition Details

Not take taxes from our Monthly Salaries while we are fighting the Coronavirus

Additional Information

Because we are not going to benefit from, the assistance to pay mortgages or rent, as that is for Self employed and Zero hours workers , and again that would be a better way of showing appreciation for risking our lives and that of our families.
Not to mention that most of us have not been able to shop, so we are just going by with what we got at home . Restaurants offering drink and food discounts are either closed or far from major hospitals and Supermarket NHS hours seems to be a sham.
