Rejected petition Loss of child benefit for middle income households

More details

SAY NO - to the loss off child benefit to pay off the countries debts whilst bankers still retain there bonuses. We believe the child benefit reduction should be based on household income and not a single person and should not just be cut off at a set sum but should be gradually lost as the household income increases.
