Stop the reduction of the student loans repayment threshold.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Not go ahead with the planned reduction of the student loans repayment threshold.
Young people are being unfairly targeted with increases in taxes, this coming so soon after the increase to NI. Young people are already struggling with rising costs of living and stagnant wages and this will only worsen the situation.
