Increase taxes on bank profits

What the petition asks
We want the Government to increase taxes on profits made by banks, due to increases in interest rates.
Many households and small businesses are struggling due to high interest rates in respect of loans and mortgages.
Yet many UK banks have achieved record profits as a result of decision, and we believe these profits are not justified and should be subject to higher taxes.
