We want to keep some more of our own money.

- 15,913 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 16,110 - 8 added in the past 24hrs)
Reduce VAT on hospitality to 10% to prevent closures & protect tax revenue. When venues close, HMRC loses 100% of its VAT, business rates, PAYE & corporation tax, reducing employment & supply chains. We believe a lower VAT rate would keep viable businesses trading, securing jobs & ongoing revenue.

- 11,106 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 11,115 - 1 added in the past 24hrs)
HMRC sets scale rate expenses for subsistence paid to employees who travel outside the UK, such as Cabin Crew. We feel the rates are not reflective or the real costs for people whose work takes them abroad, and that the way they are put into blocks of 5/10 or 24 hour blocks is completely unfair.

Abolish quarterly Making Tax Digital submissions for self-assessment
- 983 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 1,498 - 19 added in the past 24hrs)
We want the Government to abolish the requirement for quarterly tax submissions under Making Tax Digital, introduced this April by HMRC. We believe it is difficult enough doing annual submissions and now to be forced to submit tax calculations 4 times a year is more than many of us can bear.
Scrap Making Tax Digital (MTD) for Income Tax and remove £200 fine
- 383 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 581 - 3 added in the past 24hrs)
The Government should scrap the new Making Tax Digital (MTD) scheme for Income Tax and revert to the previous system where Self Employed People handed in accounts once a Year. We also call on the Government to drop the £200 fines for late submissions and requirement to upload information online.
Private pensions to remain excluded from someone's estate for Inheritance Tax
- 448 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 540 - 3 added in the past 24hrs)
We ask the Government to reverse the planned change in April 2027 to include someone's Private pension into their estate estimate for Inheritance tax. In our view this disproportionately penalise single or unmarried couples due to £325k individual tax allowance (plus £175k if house goes to children)

(Estimated Final Signatures: 466 - 2 added in the past 24hrs)
Studies show that some people leave the forces without access to adequate benefits, placing immense pressure on families and, in some cases, leading to homelessness or suicide.
Increase the Personal Allowance to £16,000 and link it to inflation
- 365 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 371 - 1 added in the past 24hrs)
We call on the Government to increase the Personal Allowance from £12,570 to £16,000 and automatically uprate it each year in line with inflation (CPI), so people on low and middle incomes don’t pay more tax in real terms when living costs rise.
