Increase the 40% tax bracket threshold in line with inflation
- 28 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 375 - None added in the past 24hrs)
We want the Government to increase the 40% tax bracket in line with inflation. They have frozen this, which we believe is causing people to work longer and harder to earn a decent living. Working people should not be penalised for wanting to have a good quality of life for their families.

I would like it to be mandatory for all MPs to declare any shares they hold in vulture funds.

- 257 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 290 - 1 added in the past 24hrs)
The law should be changed to ensure that before closing or freezing a customer's account, banks must provide:
1) A valid, specific reason for doing so
and
2) A clear and independent route of appeal.

- 19 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 240 - None added in the past 24hrs)
We want the Government to reduce the withdrawal penalty from a Lifetime ISA from 25% to 20% so savers needing to withdraw for reasons other than first time buying or retirement, are not punished for wanting to reallocate their savings.
Increase the minimum tax threshold to £15,000
- 26 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 225 - 6 added in the past 24hrs)
We believe the current minimum tax threshold of £12,570 is too low and does not give lower paid earners enough leeway to achieve a better standard of living.
Require creditors to verify ID of people applying for credit
- 24 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 207 - None added in the past 24hrs)
We want the Government to make it a statutory requirement for creditors to have to check the ID of people applying for credit, to better protect people from fraud and identity theft.
Exempt bonuses from income tax
- 25 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 207 - 1 added in the past 24hrs)
We want the Government to remove any form of tax implications on bonuses. Bonuses are rewards for our hard work and we believe should not be taxed.
Increase tax-free childcare allowance
- 184 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 188 - 1 added in the past 24hrs)
The tax free childcare scheme has not increased its £500 per quarter allowance since its introduction in 2017 despite significant rising childcare costs. We call on the Government to increase the allowance at the very least as the same rate of inflation since 2017.
Prevent banks from banning transactions with Cryptocurrency Exchanges
- 136 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 187 - 1 added in the past 24hrs)
Some UK banks are blanket banning Crypto related transactions. They say that this is due to fraud and consumer protection, but we believe it is in order to protect their own interests. We want the Government legislate against blanket restrictions to protect the economic freedom of the population.
