"Just like our parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents who fought for us in two great world wars, these brave warriors are our new champions."
"This is for the doctors, nurses, cleaners, doormen, drivers, and all those who silently risk their lives daily to save ours. Champions, all of you!"
Drummer Roger Taylor adds, “As a father with a daughter working on the front lines, I am acutely aware of the vital work they are doing every day to save us and our society. Their bravery and sacrifice deserve nothing less than 100% of the government’s efforts to protect them. They are precious and truly our champions.”
