Petition Inland Revenue Clawback of Back Taxes

More details

The government need to take action against the Inland Revenue for clawing back unpaid tax for people on low incomes caused by systems that are "unfit for purpose". The systems were incapable of dealing with people with multiple employments. Debt has been allowed to build up because no early warning of the problem has been given to people who had several employers who were all deducting personal allowances from tax to be paid. There must be millions of peeople affected by this with debts up to £8000.
