Closed Increase Employee National Insurance by 1%

Closed on

Increase Employee National Insurance by 1% to be used exclusively for the NHS & Social Care. With the NHS and Social Care in turmoil both facing unprecedented funding shortages, it is time for the UK workforce to help further fund these services.

Polling has shown that 48% would support a 1% increase in national insurance contributions to go towards the NHS and Social Care.
