The Sun calls on Brits to support our fantastic NHS by applauding them every Thursday evening during coronavirus crisis

THE Sun today calls on readers to show their respect and appreciation for the NHS by again applauding them — and on every Thursday of the coronavirus crisis.⚠️ Read ourResidents in Bristol took to their balconies to join in with the applause last weekAmanda Holden and her daughters stood outside their front door to applaud our NHS heroesYou can even turn your house blue in support — like 200 UK landmarks including Tower Bridge, the White Cliffs of Dover and Angel of the North near Gateshead.

She said: “We will do this every Thursday at 8pm to keep supporting those who are under enormous stress day in, day out.”Strictly star A.J. Pritchard:Radio host Myleene Klass:'Get out on your doorstep or balcony every Thursday and clap LOUDLY!'Britain’s Got Talent’s Amanda Holden is among stars backing the national applause.

"I’m so pleased The Sun is encouraging people to make it a weekly thing. It has an enormous effect on morale.” Meanwhile NHS data suggests that up to 1.7million Brits may have been struggling with the virus in the past fortnight.

Clap them when you need them, stab them in the back when you want to kick them out of the country. We see you.

From the newspaper that backed the very party that put our NHS in this precarious condition. Really? Get stuffed The Sun.

Tories clapping the NHS? 🤔

thesun I for one will not be clapping for the NHS because I did that last time. I will be trying to find crowdfunding websites raising money for PPE to retweet and make donations to. Maybe the TheSun should do the same like for 'Help the Heroes'. dontbuythesun COVID19

I asked my cousin in Athens over 40yrs of service. LISTEN YOU CANNOT CONTAIN THIS VIRUS...MUST DO A...... IMMUNE HERD THAT LETS OUT THOSE TESTED ....B. VACCINE ASAP. THIS CONTAINMENT WILL NOT WORK

What a useless headline, at a time when NHS staff aren't being provided with the resources - tests, protective gear - to keep them alive. How about we come out and boo this glib government instead?

Pathetic, this headline is more about distracting people from that incompetent shitshow of a government that your paper supports. Right now NHS staff care more about testing and PPE than clapping. They should be booing your golden boy Johnson.

BoycottTheSun Tory lickspittles! Shamefully compliant and weak journalism. Clapping won't help! Give them adequate PPE and testing.

Clapping doesn’t feed doctors and nurses, and it doesn’t protect them against C19. If you voted Tory and you clap for the NHS, you’re a hypocrite. You voted for a party which has dismantled the NHS over a decade through underfunding, and now you want to clap? Pathetic.

A shame you called for this disastrous government to be voted in. This is hypocrisy.

If You really wanted to support the NHS you would be calling out this Government for not protecting the frontline workers.

Utterly shameless. How long are you going to keep trying to cover for the government in their disastrous handling of this crisis

On a day when every other newspaper calls for them to be tested

Government failing on coronavirus and all the Sun can produce is claptrap!

Manufacturing Producing quality PPE quickly appears to be a hurdle. But there doesn't appear to be much focus on it.

Instead of joining the Thursdays night clapping do something useful for the NHS and BOO very loudly to protest lack of PPE for frontline staff and failure to test at any meaningful level.

ibraahim_carab Please do us a favour ! Where the f**k were you during the years when the NHS was been stripped bare ! Hypocrites .

More hypocrisy from the sun, dont they remember this?

No need to clap. Just stay at home, keep social distance. Stay safe. Thank you

Pitiful...

Gee_McK Retweeting the sun? Eww

A better tribute to our brave NHS workers would've been to use your front page to call for better protective equipment and testing for all staff.
