Closed Robin Hood Tax

Closed on

We, the undersigned petition the Government to introduce a Financial Transaction or 'Robin Hood' tax.
This tiny tax (0.05%) on the financial sector has the power to raise hundreds of billions every year globally. It could give a vital boost to the NHS, our schools, and the fight against child poverty in the UK – as well as tackling poverty and climate change around the world.
