Introduce a new tax on football clubs to increase funding for the NHS
We want the Government to introduce a new tax on the revenue generated by Premier League Football clubs to increase funding for our life-saving NHS workers.
We think many NHS workers have overworked throughout their careers yet have been underpaid despite rising inflation rates. On the other hand, the sports industry, especially football, has seen continuously high levels of income for players over time. Both the sports and healthcare industries are significant in our lives and require years to gain skills, training and experience. However, arguably healthcare is more significant as it can directly save the lives of those who desperately need help.
If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
