Make a plastic tax, anything with a plastic wrapping you have to pay a 2p tax

Petition Details

I want to make a plastic tax so all plastic products sold have to pay a 2p plastic tax the money made will go towards cleaning the UK coasts of rubbish and help repopulate the sea with sea life.

Additional Information

Over 8 billion tonnes of plastic is dumped into the ocean every year. Fish then eat it and then it works it way into our diet. Pvc is the most dangerous man made object and it's 30% of all plastic. It can cause cancer.
Plastic doesn't erode for 450 to 1000 year's
