Stop New Annual Property Taxes and Scrap Stamp Duty — 9 signatures. Status: rejected.
We call on the UK Government to reject any new annual property taxes and abolish Stamp Duty. Homes bought with already-taxed income should not be taxed repeatedly. Government must manage public money better and grow the economy—not place ever-greater burdens on homeowners.
People already pay income tax, National Insurance, VAT and Stamp Duty before owning a home. Introducing any new annual property tax would repeatedly tax assets bought with already-taxed income. Government is accountable for how it spends taxpayers’ money and should tackle waste and inefficiency before asking people to pay more. We urge the Government to reject new recurring property taxes, abolish Stamp Duty, and focus on economic growth rather than increasing the tax burden on homeowners.
