Stop taxing key workers during Coronavirus lockdown restrictions.
We want the government to stop taxing key workers during the Coronavirus outbreak.
As key workers we are continuing to work with a higher risk to ourselves with reduced hours resulting in reduced pay.
We have no risk payments or compensation.
Front line staff, nhs, bus and rail workers, school teachers, supermarkets, hgv drivers, we continue to keep this country on its feet.
We want the government to give all key workers who are still working a tax holiday.
We continue to pay national insurance but we don’t get taxed on our pay during the lockdown. We are struggling.
