Keeping Virtual Parliament would enable MPs and other elected representatives from the regions and devolved nations to continue to work from home during the pandemic. If remote working IT including Virtual Parliament are removed, our democracy can not work under the new lockdown laws, as people from NI, North Scotland, Wales and SW England can not get to London and back in a day. Law states they can not stay in their second home in London. Travel and mixing in the Houses of Parliament add risk. Also it sets a very dangerous precedent to other employers to force people back to the office without proper provisions.

Over 7 million British people still work in critical and dangerous areas such as health and social care, the emergency services, food supply, local and national government, transport, police, army and education. Without these people, Britain could not function. Yet, millions are being paid very low wages and aren’t being provided the protective equipment they need to keep their families safe.

Self-Employed are less likely to be able to continue working during the pandemic due to their type of work, whereas furloughed employees are able to seek alternative employment whilst they are furloughed from their normal jobs. This means that self-employed are much worse off, with no income whatsoever from the end of May.

Unpaid carers never have a day off also work more than 40 hours per week. We do it because we care.

There must be thousands of small businesses who have no need for premises and who run their businesses from home. They do not appear on the radar for either of the grants available to companies with premises. Small businesses of ALL SIZES contribute to employment and pay taxes in the same manner as companies with premises.

People are losing their jobs, homes and security in the pandemic. Measures introduced by the Government are welcome in helping many in need to survive; in order to pay for this without punishing the poorer members of our society those who can well afford it should pay their fair share. Rather than wealthy CEOs making relatively paltry donations their companies should be paying proper taxes in the countries they extract wealth from. We will all need to pay higher taxes but this should be shared proportionately, without ordinary people bearing the burden as they have done since the 2008 crash. It's no good identifying key workers as the heroes they are if things go back to the way they were before the pandemic, and the very services we depended on to see us through are reduced further with yet more 'austerity' (i.e. austerity for most of us, bounty for the wealthy). We need real and lasting change to effect greater equality in the UK, and this starts with wealthy individuals and corporations making a proper contribution to the country and the people that they benefit from so much.

Many vulnerable and disabled people are currently unable to access essential services such as 'Supermarkets, Health Facilities, Essential Retail Shops, Take Away Restaurants and Banks' without enduring 'temporary measures' which are potentially extremely detrimental to their physical health and mental wellbeing. Disabled people are being turned away from stores when they ask for 'Reasonable Adjustments' to be made to accommodate their disability; The Pregnant, Elderly and those with anxiety or sensory conditions are being forced to wait in long queues outside of a store and met by hostile staff who make no effort to ease wait times for this vulnerable group. Some stores will only make reasonable adjustments during 'unsociable hours' usually before the store opens, which are inconvenient for the majority of disabled or vulnerable people and wholly inappropriate and inaccessible. Whilst the most vulnerable people of society are doing their best to self-isolate; many vulnerable people are more often unable to get support, stay at home due to mental health, shop online or avoid shopping in person for themselves due to allergies or fear of cross contamination. Thank you for your signature, it really means the world to us. * Special thanks to all NHS Staff, Emergency Services and those working to help save lives by shopping for elderly and vulnerable people. Thank You

1) Many good Tenants pay rent for years, yet this does not register on their Credit History. 2) Landlords are resistant to taking “Benefit Tenants” as they do not pass a Credit reference. 3) Many people are now claiming Universal Credit which includes a payment of LHA. 4) Some tenants do get into financial trouble and spend their Local Housing Allowance. I am suggesting that the LHA part of their U.C. be paid direct to landlords and that payment be registered with a Credit Reference Agency. Result 1) Good Tenants have a Credit History for their future. 2) Troubled Tenants have an incentive to pay off their debt and 3) Landlords are more inclined to take “Benefit tenants”.

Itis important because the living wage in the UK is more than the government pension, We are one of the richest countries in the world as such we should take care of the people who helped build this country.

Because its immoral to use your wealth and position to set up a different tax arrangement to ordinary British taxpayers but then represent them in Parliament its corrupt

It is the responsibility of all to stand against and denounce openly and clearly expressed racism. All reasonable and moral people are appalled at racism and should stand against it at every opportunity. I support and uphold Naga in her denunciation of unequivocally racist comment as would any one with any decency. Shame on the BBC.

To aid safe crossing so that the roads only need to be crossed once instead of twice eg currently to get from Papa John's to RT's you need to cross over to Barclays Bank, go down a short way before then crossing back over the road to RT's. The kerb is currently too high for people who have difficulty walking, use mobility scooters, or parents with prams.
