Reject the new rise in National Insurance and Tax for the working class

Rejected 15 signatures

What the petition asks

We want the goverment to hear the majority of the country as a young workers, low income workers and the general working class we are all going to suffer greatly from the deduction of our income for the rise in tax.
National insurance is rising by 1.25% with tax also rising to help fund the NHS. The rules are not the same for everyone as young workers, low-income workers and the working class are being constantly attacked with rises in tax by the conservative party. When the country voted for Boris Johnson his manifesto promised no rise in taxes and National insurance yet this has turned out be a lie. The rich have only become richer during the pandemic as the working class have suffered we need change.
