Petition Action

Make all foreign nationals working in the NHS British citizens to show thanks

Petition Details

Many Foreign nationals have risked their lives working for the NHS during the COVID pandemic. Award them British citizenship to say thank you for what they have done for the UK during this time.

Additional Information

As a nurse in the NHS myself I know that it takes a lot of dedicated people to keep the population safe. We have seen during this pandemic that in order to keep the NHS effective we rely on highly skilled staff from around the world to do so.
