Petition text
Stop wasting public money on a disingenuous campaign that targets 'welfare cheats'. Instead, focus on cracking down on tax evasion by multinational corporations that are cheating our public services of vital funding.
Why is this important?
The amount of public revenue lost from tax evasion far out strips the amount of money lost through welfare fraud. [1] Leo Varadkar is wasting public funds by creating a system where people on extremely low incomes are publicly shamed and spied upon by their neighbours. If you think that tax evasion by corporations is a far bigger problem than welfare 'fraud', then sign the petition today.
