There's still time to email your MP about Fair Taxes before the Budget!

You still have time to make sure your MP understands how important it is that we take action for Fair Taxes. If enough MPs speak out, there is a real chance that next week's Budget could put in place a 'General Anti-Avoidance Rule' (GAAR). This would prevent wealthy individuals and companies from using contrived financial structures to shield themselves from their tax bills. The poorest pay more of their income in tax than the richest. An effective General Anti-Avoidance Rule will not solve that injustice, but it is an essential first step. 369 have emailed their MPs so far about this. Please join them - take two minutes to email your MP
