Reinstate the 45% tax rate

Petition Details

Bring back the 45% tax rate, paid by 629,000 people and rising. While it might not be a substantial sum of money in total terms, it’s the right decision and the right message.

Additional Information

The mini-budget benefits the higher earners in the population and not the lower-income people who need support and help most, especially those faced with the terrifying cost of living crisis and, in particular, those trying to keep a roof over their family’s heads. This is morally and financially wrong.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.

You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.

You may wish to sign this petition which calls for the same action: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/623752

The 45% rate has not yet been abolished, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer has now announced that this tax will not be removed: www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-63114279
