Stop taxing tips

What the petition asks
This law should be scrapped, people shouldn’t have to pay tax on already taxed money.
Taxing people on already taxed money for tips is wrong. The person gifting the tip has already paid tax on their money, a new tax bracket is then worked out for the person receiving the tips which can vary from month to month making the calculations differ resulting in the receiver of a tip having to pay more tax. To tip someone is a personal thing and I believe amongst many others to be taxed on this is criminal.
