Raise taxes for the richest to ease the financial burden of the poor and elderly

Petition Details

The conservative government refuses to increase taxes for the richest people in the country, and their reason for this is shambolic. They seem fine hitting the poor hardest leaving them with precious little. This cannot continue.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you mean by "the richest", so we're not sure exactly who you want to pay more tax or how much more you would like them to pay.

You can find out about current income tax rates here:

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
