This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Petition Opt-out of paying Tax toward War
More details
At present, those who disagree with war overseas, have no option but to pay for it out of their hard earned income.
Those who think that their money could/should be spent elsewhere, in a more constructive manner (say schools or hospitals for example), should have the right to say so.
We should support our armed forces by all means but they should be at home, protecting our borders and helping the people of this country.
We would like the government to be transparent about how much each tax payer is contributing (financially) toward war overseas and give them the option to direct that money toward a cause that they deem more reasonable.
