Rejected petition Introduce an additional 1p in the pound tax with all proceeds going to the NHS.

The NHS is facing severe problems as never before. Nine out of ten hospitals have experienced overcrowding this winter, patients are being treated in corridors, waiting times are growing and operations are being cancelled. This new tax should be based on all earnings above £20,000 per annum.
