Create a rising tax rate system and set an effective maximum income level

Open for signatures 30 signatures

What the petition asks

We would like the current tax band system in this country to be abolished, in favour of a formulaic system, where tax is calculated from a starting income of £45,000, rising to a maximum income figure of around £250,000.
Any income above this amount would be taxed at 100% in order to set a 'maximum income'.

We feel that there have been years of gross inequity in Britain, which have promoted a tax system that seems designed to make the divide between rich and poor increase exponentially.
