What the petition asks
It's completely wrong to expect people to pay more when government already has billions but chooses to ask already struggling families
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
Local councils, not the UK Government or Parliament, set the rates of council tax in their local area.
