Petition Action

Amend the law making it impossible for any businesses to avoid paying taxes.

Petition Details

Too many services have closed or are at breaking point due to a massive reduction in funding. We are led to believe it is because we are a nation of scroungers; i strongly disagree. If all organisations paid a fair amount of tax, the UK will be able to support our vulnerable and those in need.

Additional Information

My Mother recently received excellent care for cancer. She had treatment for nearly 2 years leading to a 12 hour operation. I have often wondered what would have happened if we had no NHS!....we would have both had to sell our homes to pay for the treatment. I thank my lucky stars often for a lot our country has to offer........but it is being dismantled and must stop. We need to fund our services.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We understand that you're concerned about tax avoidance, but we're not sure exactly what change you'd like to see.

There is already something called the General Anti-Abuse Rule (GAAR). you can find out more about this here:

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what changes you'd like to be made to the laws on tax.
