Comments on: A Petition To Save Our Shopkeepers https://spitalfieldslife.com/2017/02/07/a-petition-to-save-the-shopkeepers/ In the midst of life I woke to find myself living in an old house beside Brick Lane in the East End of London Thu, 09 Feb 2017 08:40:56 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.1 By: Shawdian https://spitalfieldslife.com/2017/02/07/a-petition-to-save-the-shopkeepers/#comment-1134804 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 08:40:56 +0000 http://spitalfieldslife.com/?p=154109#comment-1134804 Signed.
We need to be doing more to help small business’s prosper,
not close them down in a kill Peter to feed Paul quango. Utterly disgraceful.

It is the central gov. But the mayor needs to lobby hard and strong. What madness that Paul Sundryman is treated like a Capitalist. This man trades in paper
bags for other small business and market traders. What the blinking Norahs?

Linking business rates to property prices is simply unjust. Is there no common sense or grasp of why property prices are so high? Mr Khan connect with the common people and sort this now.

With multi-nationals and the super-rich refusing to pay tax the burden is passed to those who cannot escape by moving money through off-shore tax havens. The alternative is cut-backs and we can see where that is leading the NHS.

Petition signed and my MP emailed again. The problem is she agrees with me completely – I’m not pressuring somebody who thinks we are on a sensible path!

I have signed the petition. Good luck to all who are campaigning. Valerie
