Review the tax system

What the petition asks
We think the tax system should be reviewed to reduce the percentage of tax on goods such as food, petrol/diesel, energy etc.
We think the review should also consider reducing the income tax rates and changing the rules to mean you do not have to pay tax once you are retired.
We think the government seems to have far too much of the British tax payers money. We think that if the government can afford to spend billions of pounds in foreign aid to foreign countries, and house, feed and clothe illegal immigrants, we are paying too much tax.
