Raise income tax threshold to £18,000

Raise income tax threshold to £18,000 — 9 signatures. Status: open.

Petition background

Before he became Prime Minister, the PM has previously hinted at increasing the tax thresholds which have been frozen since 2021.

Additional details

These are currently due to continue to be frozen for the next 5 years. We want the Government to raise the thresholds to £18,000 as we believe millions of people are hurting financially. The Prime Minister previously hinted at raising the allowances, we believe he is now apparently back tracking. Had thresholds not been frozen in 2021 they today could be around £16,400 a year. Governments are expecting people to take what we feel is a 10 year pay freeze, which I believe is not acceptable.
