Petition Action

Stop the new tax on "normal everyday" people selling on online platforms.

Petition Details

Start increasing taxing on the bigger companies that import cheaper products that sell on these online platforms, in turn stopping child labour / pollution / funding terrorism

Additional Information

Why should the everyday person, who has already paid tax on the item pay EVEN more tax on second hand products? If I was to sell my car for £1001 why do I have to pay tax on it? The sale of the item & so called profits from a sale does not take into account the packaging and shipping. People are using these platforms to pay for the high taxes / energy rates / TV licences / FOOD etc, Find a way to TAX the large corporates and stop finding the easy route to bail your mistakes by chasing the poor!
