Ban payday lenders from charging more than 30% apr

Change the rules for payday lenders fees so that they cannot charge more than 30% apr

Why is this important?

Often the most vulnerable in our society have little means of resources to help them, so turn to payday lenders just to survive, or to get them out of debt which very quickly leaves them in a cycle of revolving debt.
Payday lenders are taking advantage of this and charging exploitative rates of interest ie 1300% sending people into spiralling debt
