STOP IN WORK POVERTY WITH A PROGRESSIVE TAXATION SYSTEM!
A progressive taxation system will reduce income inequality and promote real social justice.
The Joseph Rowntree Foundation produced a detailed report stating that for a single person to achieve the minimum standard of living in the UK they would need to earn £17900 per year before tax.
National Minimum Wage working 40 hours over 5 day will pay £15600 per year.
The current 3 step tax rate system causes in work poverty and income inequality.
A fairer system will benefit everyone.
