Give all NHS workers free bus and train transport during the Covid-19 crisis.
The government should give NHS workers free transportation to and from work- just as those who drive have been granted free parking. Some NHS workers are low paid and in this situation face extremely uncertain days- the least the government could do to alleviate the burden is provide free transport.
Not enough is being done to support NHS workers- there has not been a significant pay rise for years and as public transport is expensive- during this time when they are literally risking their lives, the least that can be done is that it is made free.
