Help create a fair tax system for all rather than one that supports the wealthy

Petition Details

The tax system favours large companies and wealthy individuals who can avoid virtually all taxes on their income. The shortfall means higher effective tax rates for everyone else. Help mitigate the imbalance to the UK economy and its taxpayers with these simple changes.

Additional Information

Equalise the tax rates for income and capital gains – wealth is mainly generated from gains not income but is taxed less even though it has a greater potential to adversely affect the economy if fueled by debt.

Prevent the tax system from supporting these debt fuelled gains by capping ‘Earnings Stripping’ by multinational corporations and disallow for tax purposes the company’s interest expense above £1 million per annum and restrict intragroup recharges to 5% maximum of turnover.
