Wipe debts of all key workers for their efforts during Covid-19
Government to wipe all key workers debts such as credit card debts, overdrafts etc or give key workers a lump sum for keeping the country running during this pandemic, risking their own and their families lives to keep everyone safe/fed/educated.
Key workers deserve some recognition and reward for keeping the rest of our country going during this hard time. They (nurses, teachers, shop workers etc) have risked their lives on the frontlines, continuing to work day in and day out to keep us safe/fed/educated as well as risking the lives of their families at home. It is the least we can do as a country to give these amazing people some sort of reward, such as wiping their debts or some sort of financial lump sum.
