Petition Introduce new tax code for state pensioners with double the personal allowance
We want the government to introduce a new tax code for state pensioners, set at double the basic threshold. If this was implemented, pensioners would receive a higher tax-exempt limit, but wealthier pensioners would still pay tax.
More details
We think that people with small private or workplace pensions are currently being taxed unfairly.
