Petition Tax those who can afford to pay - as promised

More details

In 50 years there has been a 40% reduction in tax rates with the two main parties buying votes on a regular basis. This is the major reason for the present cuts. We are constantly told entrepreneurs will leave the country if the higher rate is increased, this is rubbish, properganda by the likes of Murdoch. Call their bluff and increase the upper rate of tax to a minimum of 75%. Protect lower paid by increasing personal allowance to £10,000 and change to higher rate to £50,000.

Finally help world situation by suggesting all G20 do the same. Massive poverty levels in all these states is a disgrace and a sleight on the ruling classes.
