Increase income tax/NI to give NHS staff a larger pay increase

Closed 30 signatures

What the petition asks

If, as a country we do not have sufficient funds to increase the pay offer to NHS staff, especially Nurses, then the government should increase personal tax or national insurance rate to bring in enough to do so.
We hear all the complaints about the poor offer of 1% so why not ask the public to contribute more. Vivid has put hugh strain on our economy. We have all pulled together to fight it so why not pull together to relieve the debt. We are all in this together and it is together that we will get out of it. Petition government to put it to the population as it is.
