Rejected petition No Honours for Tax Avoiders

More details

Wealthy British individuals who undertake aggressive tax avoidance or evasion (including those certifying themselves as 'non-doms' for tax purposes) should be prevented from receiving honours from the Queen, and those found to have undertaken such activities should be stripped of these honours. The honour system seeks to reward outstanding citizens who improve the UK not those who impoverish our nation and commit actions described by our Prime Minister as 'morally wrong'.
