MPs to be required by law to pay all their taxes by PAYE.

Petition Details

Most ordinary people have tax deducted at source from their wages or salary by PAYE. They have no chance of claiming for tax-deductible work expenses, eg work clothes and travel. Let there be a level playing field for taxation.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We're not sure what your petition is asking for. MPs might have to pay many taxes which cannot be paid through PAYE; for example, capital gains tax.
