David i think you might be missing the point slightly; if the petition gets the required 5% it will be DEBATED; thus if we had petitions regarding any of the points you raised:
Should income tax be banned?
Should we have council tax?
Should VAT be scrapped?
should we give multi-millionaires a tax break?
Should we pull out of Afghanistan now?
Should we pay for smokers cancer treatment on the NHS?
Should all politicians be hung drawn and quartered?
It would be a very quick debate wouldn’t it as none of the parties would agree to such nonsense…the fact is it would create a mechanism for sensible issues to be raised and debated.
