This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Rejected petition Tax all earnings made in the UK & close all loopholes for individuals & companies trading in the uk so they pay their fair share.
More details
In a fair & just society it should be the case that the wealthiest pay a fair share of their wealth in tax. It should be at least the same overall proportion of their income as those in the lowest contributing band, & preferably at least that of the average.
Companies & corporations that take income from trading here should pay for that privelage in due taxation, so it's not a case of wealth being sucked out of us individually or as a nation.
I would like to see the goverment taking measures that would prevent profits & earnings being put out of reach of HMRC, so it is a level tax playing field for all & so the middle & lower earners do not pay a greater overall proprtion of their income than the richest.
