I’ve just asked my MP to join those calling for a proper tax on private jets. Will you do the same? This could raise £billions every year for things that really matter. Let’s make it happen! action.wearepossible.org/page/196342/...

Ask your MP to join those calling for a proper tax on private jets
The money raised from simply taxing private jets in line with commercial flights could wipe out energy bill debt overnight and bring energy bills down for every household across the UK.
