What the petition asks
Impose a temporary 1% tax on the annual salaries of all working individuals for one year. The revenue would go solely to funding improvements in the UK’s military capabilities.
This could bolster the UK’s defence and protection during potential future conflicts, and thereby safeguard the security of future generations.
