Give NHS staff "Tax Free" Pay.
We would like the government to consider giving NHS frontline staff tax free pay for 6 months, during this Covid-19 pandemic as a good will gesture for risking their lives and the hard work they have done.
The UK went into full-scale lockdown on March 23, this means that majority of people will work from home if they can.
This does not apply for NHS staff and other frontline workers.
The risks taken daily by the armies of British doctors, nurses and healthcare workers treating covid-19 patients have been starkly illustrated by a growing number of deaths.
Several NHS workers have already lost their lives after contracting the disease from patients and that number is likely to soar.
