We call on the Government to increase the National Minimum Wage by 10% from April 2026 for those aged 21 and over because of raising council tax, water , electricity , gas etc.

Abolish National Minimum Wage & enforce National Living Wage For All Ages
Abolish the national minimum wage and enforce the national living wage to all ages.
Make the Apprentice National Minimum Wage means tested
I would like the Government to ensure that individuals seeking further education as an apprentice (e.g getting a level 3 qualification in childcare) can have a wage that is more appropriate for an their circumstances, as opposed to a single flat minimum wage for all apprentices.
Increase the Carer’s Allowance to equal 35 hours at minimum wage
I want the Government to appreciate unpaid carers who can’t work and to increase the Carer’s Allowance so it equals the minimum wage. Many unpaid carers are only paid around £333 a month for a minimum 140 hours care every 4 weeks, which works out around £2.50 an hour.
Increase the Personal Allowance to £16,000 and link it to inflation
We call on the Government to increase the Personal Allowance from £12,570 to £16,000 and automatically uprate it each year in line with inflation (CPI), so people on low and middle incomes don’t pay more tax in real terms when living costs rise.
Raise the income tax personal allowance from £12,570 to £20,000
This would help with increasing rent, mortgages, Council tax, and Gas and Electric bills. Some families can’t afford to go back to work after children due to childcare costs wiping their whole income!
