What the petition asks
Debate taxing the super rich living or carrying on businesses on wealth, wherever located.
Endless austerity is hobbling workers and the middle class with the bulk of taxes and perpetual cuts to services we rely on. No alternative to belt tightening is ever officially debated. We should change that. Let’s hear from this government why we should end or limit critical services rather than ask the super rich to pay their fair share.
