This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We understand that you want the Government to increase taxes on high earners to support the economy during the Covid-19 outbreak, but it's not clear whether you want any increased revenue from tax rises to be used to fund already announced or new support.

We have published a petition calling on the Government to increase taxes on high earners to fund emergency Budget measures, which you might like to sign: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/305795
