0.1% Robin-hood Tax on Forex Market to raise $150bn for UK annually

Introduce a modest 1p in £10 Currency Tax. It is also known as Financial Transaction Tax or Robin Hood Tax.

Why is this important?

-Government will efficiently be able to raise taxes from banking/ financial sector
-The tax could reduce some speculation in the currency market
-The tax would raise up to £100 billion for UK Treasury
-The countries who are keen to introduce this tax, will follow our lead
-We can end Austerity & the misery caused for 10 million families in UK
-We can invest this extra source of revenue to make our economy work for all
-We can bear pressure on our governments (under the influence of strong vested interests) to act for the common good.

By putting your name to this petition, not only can we make a huge difference soon, we can also give hope for our future generations.
