Petition Action

We need fair tax cut to tackle the cost of living crisis

Petition Details

We urge the goverment to bring in VAT tax cuts on fuel/Energy and food, were going through a deep living crisis and making difficult decisions to choose between eating and heating

Additional Information

We are a nation of wealth blessed by the Almighty. The Conservative are also a party of tax cuts and despite going through almost 10 years of austerity, its only fair...more money is put into pockets so we can breathe a little easier and don't need to wake up and think first thing, do I use the heating or put food on the table.

The VAT tax cut could be a start slashed to 10% as well as Income tax cut even if its for a period of 3-5 years.

We deserve a tax cut after going through this difficult period for almost a decade.

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'd like the Government or Parliament to do. We're not sure if you want cuts to VAT or also to income tax.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. There's already a petition about fuel taxes, which you can sign here

Most food isn't subject to VAT, but we could accept a petition calling for it to be removed from all food. You can read more here
