Petition Action

Make wearing masks mandatory when leaving your house.

Petition Details

I want the government to make wearing masks outside of your house mandatory to reduce the spread of coronavirus.

Additional Information

With coronavirus not looking like it is backing down anytime soon and with cases on the raise with the ease of lockdown I think the government needs to make it mandatory that everyone should wear a mask as soon as they leave their house, if they do not wear one they get fined.
