Only make those on furlough pay extra in tax

Rejected 13 signatures

What the petition asks

As a NHS worker who has been working the whole pandemic. I know we deserve to not pay extra in taxes as we haven’t claimed any sort of claim/furlough during this pandemic.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

It is not clear what 'extra tax' you are referring to.

You could start a petition calling for specified tax breaks or exemptions for key workers including NHS staff, if that is something you'd like to happen.
