Rejected petition Make rates and rent more affordable for small businesses.

Rates and rent are continuously on the rise, Britain will no longer have independent cafes, shops and restaurants if something isn’t done to stop this. It’s not only affecting people’s lively hoods but ruining villages and towns. Greed from councils, landlords and the government will ruin us all!
