What the petition asks

Stop the extortionate raises. Lower them to a price where people can make it work they don’t have to throw all those years hard work down the drain.

The government are always talking about how they want to save small businesses, well now is the chance to save many. Hundreds of small businesses are closing by the week. Thousands of people out of jobs. Businesses that sometimes have been there over 40 years and was being handed to the next generation, suddenly gone with a click of their fingers. Please make it so it is compulsory for them to dramatically lower their prices and keep us all in business.
