A higher tax band for high earners and cut politician wages to minimum wage.

Petition Details

Priority to Cut all uk politician Salaries to minimum wage.

Introduce a higher tax band for higher earners and people with savings over £100,000

Potentially seizing 2nd homes and putting a law in place to prevent greedy people purchasing more than 1 home would be a good idea for saving money.

Additional Information

A higher tax band would be an effective way potentially pay back some of the debt we’re in. And regulate the overly wealthy.

taking away the unnecessary over payments in salary from our politicians would ensure moneys value for their work, as it is not physical labour.

They should be made to work the minimum that they offer and they should only get paid fairly for the work they do £84.000 annually is a huge over payment for a service that’s failing the entire country.
