Stop the double tax (IHT & Income Tax) of pension funds & death benefits
- 923 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 10,198 - 824 added in the past 24hrs)
The Government are introducing inheritance tax to pension funds & death benefits from April 2027. When you die this may now result in a disproportionate and unfair double taxation on beneficiaries (income tax and inheritance tax) which we think results in a disincentive to funding a pension.
Introduce a 12-month amnesty on APR and BPR policy proposals
- 7,211 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 7,528 - 4 added in the past 24hrs)
Introduce a 12-month amnesty, as we think it would allow for the transfer of land & chattels of agricultural businesses to a named person before changes to Agricultural Property Relief (APR) and Business Property Relief (BPR) are made.
Make Stamp Duty payment flexible
- 2,395 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 7,444 - 68 added in the past 24hrs)
Introduce Stamp Duty Land Tax payment flexibility: buyers choose between paying in full at completion or spreading the cost over 2-5 years via government-backed scheme. This could reduce upfront barriers to homeownership. Similar to other HMRC payment plans.
Set the income tax personal allowance to £15,597 & higher rate to £62,379.02
- 4,078 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 7,108 - 20 added in the past 24hrs)
Set the tax free allowance at £15,597, calculated via the Bank of England inflation calculator Vs 2021 when the current rate was set. The same for the higher rate, currently £50,271 set in 2021, this should be £62,379.02.
No tax or national insurance on overtime for emergency service workers
- 6,232 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 7,089 - 6 added in the past 24hrs)
Members of the emergency services may regularly work overtime and sometimes do not have the choice but to work it because it may be an aid requirement or jobs may run over. We think that any overtime worked should not be taxed or subject to national insurance
Exempt all nurseries from Employer NI Contributions
- 4,288 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 4,315 - 2 added in the past 24hrs)
We believe that if costs incurred from the planned increase to employer National Insurance Contributions and National Minimum wage are not mitigated, nurseries will have to increase fees parents pay, reduce staffing (and thereby the number of places offered), or close due to no longer being viable.
Regularly assess & consider the economic benefits of EU Customs Union membership
- 3,737 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 3,769 - 1 added in the past 24hrs)
We want the Government to commission independent bodies to regularly advise how joining the Customs Union could benefit Britain's economy. We want Parliament to regularly consider how that would advance Government's strategic goal of stimulating UK economic growth.
Publish the economic impact of removing or raising the £100k tax cliff edge
- 2,096 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 2,224 - 8 added in the past 24hrs)
Model and publish the economic impact of removing or raising the £100k taxable income cliff edge. The loss of personal allowance and loss of entitlement to free childcare hours means those who earn over £100k face a disproportionately high marginal tax rate. Between £100-£125k this can exceed 100%.
Enable self-employed to include childcare costs in allowable expenses
- 1,463 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 2,141 - 7 added in the past 24hrs)
We want the Government to allow those who are self-employed to deduct childcare costs from their taxable profit and therefore be included in allowable expenses. We think these deductions could increase productivity, earnings, and ultimately tax revenues.

- 2,024 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 2,120 - 3 added in the past 24hrs)
We want the Government to increase the cash ISA annual allowance.
We want allowances increased as we feel they have remained stagnant for sometime.
