Raise the Personal Allowance for pensioners from £12,570 to at least £25,000

Raise the Personal Allowance for pensioners from £12,570 to at least £25,000 — 1,506 signatures. Status: closed.

Petition background

We want the government to raise the Personal Allowance for pensioners (the income you do not have to pay tax on) from the current rate of £12,570 to at least £25,000.

Additional details

We think this would support our older citizens, many of whom have already contributed by paying tax during their working life.
