How a good Chancellor should tackle the Cost of living crisis now?
At an unprecedented time, Unprecedented actions are required. National Living Wage/Minimum wage workers are suffering from the extraordinary rise in Living costs. The least paid and the most hard-working class of the people want immediate and significant 'relief measures' from the chancellor now.
1. Reduce Fix Standing Charges on Electric & Gas bills.
2. Freeze CT on all bands for 5 years.
3. Freeze House rent in both Public & private sector for 5 years
4. Unfreeze the yearly tax threshold immediately.
5. Reduce VAT to '0' on domestic energy bills for variable tariff customers.
6. Stop the drain of public money on Public advertising and Foreign aid to Nuclear Countries.
7. Instead of 're-wild' UK farmers should be incentivized to grow food.
We need to produce a max of our own food.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We understand you are concerned about the cost of living, but we're not sure which tax thresholds you want the Government to 'unfreeze', what you mean by "public advertising to nuclear countries", nor what incentives you want to be given to farmers that they aren't already receiving.
Further, any decision to freeze council tax is a matter for local authorities, and any decision to freeze rent for private properties is a matter for the owners of those properties, not the UK Government.
