Change the threshold for 40% tax
The tax is due to change in April 2025 to increase tax for earning over £37,701 to 40% from 20%.
This is a huge and unfair jump considering the cost of living. With earners of £125k plus only paying 5% more.
This is far too removed from reality and a reduction in far too many wages.
The cost of living as a result of the governments poor management is already at an all time high and to further reduce income puts people closer to the breadline. 40% tax is disgusting and an embarrassment to a country that claims to be for its people.
It is not fair or feasible to increase tax to this value, nor necessary when millionaires and billionaires pay such small amounts.

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.
You could start a new petition clearly outlining what action you would like the Government or Parliament to take or how you would like the threshold to change.
