Scrap the NI Rise, reduce fuel duty now and increase basic rate tax allowances

Rejected 14 signatures

What the petition asks

The Government need to scrap the planned NI rise. They should immediately reduce fuel duty and increase the personal allowances for all basic rate taxpayers.

The Government need to demonstrate that they understand and care about the wider UK population outside of their Westminster bubble. To be looking to increase the tax burden at such a time will pose further risk to the UK economy and push more individuals into real and tangible poverty.
