What are the aims of Enough Is Enough?
Enough Is Enough has five central demands. These are:
- A £15 an hour minimum wage, a real public sector pay rise, and an inflation busting-rise in pensions and benefits.
- Cancel the October price hike and return to the significantly lower pre-April energy price cap
- Enshrine the Right to Food in law and put this into practice by introducing universal free school meals, community kitchens, and reinstating the £20-a-week Universal Credit uplift.
- Cap rents, build 100,000+ council homes a year, insulate homes and introduce a charter for renters’ rights. Limit the number of holiday homes in any area, limit AirBnBs and ensure they are taxed properly.
- Make the rich pay their fair share by raising taxes on the wealthiest and the profits of big businesses. Crack down on tax avoidance and evasion.
