This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Rejected petition votes for tax payers only
More details
With so many unemployed people, or those on incapacity benefit, and of course those employed in the public sector, it is impossible to have balanced elections for the good of the country as a whole. All of the above have a potentially vested interest in there being a socialist government, but they are not net contributors to it. Therefore it is only fair and equitable that the electoral system should be changed that only those who pay uk tax should be allowed to vote for the government who spend it for the benefit of all Therefore, if you do not pay tax, you do not have a vote.
