Call for your local candidate to support a "Robin Hood Tax"
To commit to discuss in the next Parliament the introdction of a "Robin Hood Tax".
A Robin Hood Tax is a tiny tax on the financial sector that could generate billions of pounds annually to fight poverty and climate change at home and abroad. Small change for the banks - big change for those hit hardest by the financial crisis.

Why is this important?
The Austerity programme the last coalition Government implemented, has hit the poorest and most vulnerable in our society the hardest.
You might have noticed that the economic crisis and the recession have left a massive hole in the UK’s public finances. Frontline services and jobs are at risk. Many other developed and developing countries face a similar struggle.
The financial sector is responsible for a big part of the mess we're in. So our merry band of hundreds of thousands of Robin Hood supporters believe that banks, hedge funds and the rest of the sector should pay their fair share to clear up the mess they helped create.
