Petition Details

Put military on the doors of essential shops to enforce the rules.
Myself a shop work now feels well out of my depth enforcing the law while also doing my daily duties and trying to keep everyone safe.

Additional Information

The covid-19 rules in supermarkets are confusing and the most likely place of transmission at current. Another point i believe no 1 should be exempt from wearing a facemask while doing essential shopping. This is seriously putting key workers and customers at risk. We are not being put first. There are far too many people who wont mask up or have their noses poking out.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise.

Maintaining public order is the responsibility of the police, not the military. It would be an operational decision for the police whether to request assistance.
