Petition Do not scrap child benefit for all higher tax payers in 2013

More details

Do not scrap child benefit for all higher rate tax payers in 2013. With the current pay freezes/cuts, high inflation, recent VAT increase and the general squeeze on household incomes, this will have a significant negative impact on young families who are already paying for the failures of the banking sector and the excesses of previous generations. A minimum household joint income should be used and I would suggest this is set at £100,000.
