Be part of the EU scheme to get the medical equipment to defeat coronavirus
Our government has risked lives by refusing the offer to join this EU scheme to bulk buy ventilators and protective equipment for doctors using the 500 million person leverage that the EU's single market has globally. We must join this to save people's lives.
We have to use all available resources to fight this pandemic, and not let Brexit decide whether people live or die. Therefore, the government must join the EU scheme as it is crucial to ensuring we can cope with this pandemic and that as few lives as possible are lost.
