I’m a bus driver and a so called key worker unfortunately we are on a 3 day week for keeping other key workers in full time work why are we putting our families and loved ones at risk for less money. Even though I’m a great supporter of nhs nurses and caters as my daughter and sister are both in the nhs I don’t think it’s fair
