Petition Cut Inheritance Tax

More details

Inheritance Tax should not be charged at a high, as it currently stands to be an awful lot of money to be paid on someone’s death.

It needs to be said, but it is not a luxury or happy time when someone has died, and the last thing that people what when someone has died, is being charged Inheritance Tax.

Why should we pay Inheritance Tax at the current rate it stands? We have got other things to consider, such as funeral costs and grave costs. And then they consider giving the money to much loved family members, as a form of support and true love (not for the government to think that is a luxury either)!

It would make things better, and more manageable, if Inheritance Tax was cut to a lower rate.
